The Sky Devil fell silent. He could feel Jiang Feng's emotions. As he had said, if he didn't kill Che Shaodong first, he wouldn't be able to cultivate in peace.
After a long while, the Skyscraping Devil opened his mouth and said, "It's just the tenth level of the Body Tempering stage. It's not difficult to kill him."
Jiang Feng's eyes lit up. What he wanted to hear the most was this sentence. The Skyscraping Devil was a peerless expert. Even if a tiger was defeated by the sun, a lean camel was bigger than a horse. Since he said this, there must be no problem.
"However, all of this will depend on you. Even though I will protect your dao, I will not cultivate you into a flower in a greenhouse," said the demon with a serious expression.
"I understand." Jiang Feng was equally solemn. He knew that any strong practitioner didn't rely on others to pave the way for him. Not to mention that the blood feud must be completed with his own hands. Otherwise, he would have had Mo Qing kill Che Shaodong a long time ago.
"Let's go find a trial forest. I hope you can succeed within a month," said the Skyfiend.
Although Jiang Feng wasn't familiar with the imperial palace, he found out the location of the biggest forest.
The trial forest of the imperial palace was called the Dark Forest. Dozens of kilometers away from the outskirts of the imperial palace, there were all kinds of precious spiritual herbs and many demonic beasts. It was the best place for martial artists to train.
Of course, in order to find Spiritual Herbs and hunt demonic beasts, not only did he need a lot of energy, but he also needed a certain amount of luck.
And once they encountered a powerful demonic beast, even a powerful Zifu Disciple would have to take the initiative to avoid them and not provoke them.
Of course, the more powerful a demonic beast was, the more likely it would be to rest in the depths of the forest. As long as it was active on the periphery, it was usually very safe.
The outer area was also a place where martial practitioners often roamed. Even some of the disciples of the Azure Feather Sect would choose to come to the Dark Forest.
Jiang Feng arrived in the dark forest. He first found a hidden and safe cave, placed the coffin inside, covered it with a cover, and then slaughtered his way into the forest.
He practiced the Devilish Skill, so devouring blood was a shortcut for him to break through the realm. Therefore, his target was not the precious beast core on the demonic beast's body, but the blood of the demonic beast.
"Your mission is to devour the blood, but not to blindly devour it. All you care about is to break through your realm and refine the demonic beast's blood into blood essence. Do you understand?" the Skyfiend instructed.
"How can I break through if I don't break through to the next realm?" Jiang Feng asked.
"The demonic nature is bloodthirsty. It is necessary to raise one's strength. However, no matter how many bloodlines one devours, in the end, it will only refine one's own bloodline to become more perfect. Therefore, the true demon will ultimately swallow one's own bloodline and completely refine one's own bloodline."
The Skyfiend snorted coldly and said, "If I break through the realm by devouring blood at all costs, I'll be lost in the blood sooner or later. I can't find myself, and my own bloodline is too complicated. Sooner or later, I'll be unable to control my own bloodline and eventually explode and die."
Jiang Feng nodded his head, not fully understanding the situation. The Skyfiend continued, "Therefore, you need to refine it into essence and blood. Only essence and blood can produce an even stronger power, do you understand?"
"Understood." Jiang Feng nodded.
The Skyfiend said, "Go ahead. Swallow your blood and refine it into blood essence. I will teach you powerful martial techniques."
Jiang Feng's eyes suddenly lit up. In the depths of his eyes, there was a bloodthirsty urge to rush into the depths like a cheetah.
The demonic beasts on the periphery were very weak and could not even be called demonic beasts. At most, they could be regarded as wild beasts, which were equivalent to those below the seventh level of Body Tempering.
These wild beasts were naturally not Jiang Feng's targets. He kept running and didn't know how many li he had run before he finally met a silver wolf.
The silver wolf emitted a silver-white light and released its Demonic Qi. It was a Rank 1 Demonic Beast. However, its aura was not strong, which was similar to that of a human at the seventh level of Body Tempering. It should have just been promoted to a Demonic Beast.
"Let's start with you first."
Jiang Feng smiled as his figure vanished in the blink of an eye, dashing towards the silver wolf.
The silver wolf roared, a trace of fear flashing through the depths of its eyes. It seemed to realize that it wasn't Jiang Feng's match and turned to flee.
However, how could its speed be faster than Jiang Feng's? Jiang Feng had pushed Shadow Kill to the extreme and arrived behind the Silver Wolf in a few flashes.
"Die!"
With a stamp of his foot, his body suddenly jumped up like a huge mountain and pressed down on the silver wolf. At the same time, he reached out his hand as a blade and directly stabbed the back of the silver wolf.
"Ouch." The silver wolf let out a blood-curdling scream, but it had no power to fight back. In an instant, it became a mummy.
Jiang Feng did not stop at all. He had successfully killed the Silver Wolf. This was just the beginning of his slaughter of demonic beasts. He shuttled through the forest and continuously devoured the demonic beast's blood. His gaze was locked on the demonic beast that was at the same realm as him.
Jiang Feng possessed Shadow Kill, but he was able to constantly change his position. In addition, the demonic cultivator's method of devouring blood had brought about a death-like nightmare to many demonic beasts.
Just like that, Jiang Feng had devoured it for more than half a month. He suppressed the blood that he had devoured and didn't attempt to break through to the next realm. Instead, he refined the blood according to the methods of the Skyfiend.
Although he hadn't broken through to the next realm, Jiang Feng could still feel the changes in his body after refining the blood. It was as if there was a boundless power hidden within his body.
"That's right. He's faster than I thought."
The demon's voice came, "Now I'll teach you a martial technique called Blood Soul Sting. You can comprehend it first, and then find a group of demonic beasts to practice with their blood. After you succeed, you can use your Blood Essence as a guide."
As the voice of the Skyfiend rang out, a set of techniques suddenly appeared in Jiang Feng's mind.
The Blood Soul Sting was a powerful martial technique for killing. Once one mastered it successfully, one would use one's essence and blood as a guide to display an extremely powerful explosive power. It was not difficult to kill enemies who were at a higher level.
Moreover, whether the Blood Soul Sting was powerful or not was inseparable from the bloodline. The stronger the bloodline was, the more powerful it would be.
For example, Jiang Feng's bloodline strength was comparable to the eighth level of the Body Tempering stage, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to kill someone at the ninth level of the Body Tempering stage with the help of his bloodline. He might even be able to fight someone at the tenth level of the Body Tempering stage.
If he had a stronger bloodline, he could also burst out stronger power. Therefore, the strength of the Blood Soul Sting was closely related to the strength of the bloodline.
"What a magical martial technique. What level of martial technique is this?" Jiang Feng was also shocked by the power of the Blood Soul Sting. The martial techniques he knew were divided into three levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, Huang, Man, and Mortal. Each level was divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower.
The level of the martial arts technique had long been fixed. There was no martial arts technique that was as powerful as the external factors.
"The Blood Soul Sting is a rare martial technique that has no rank. Its strength is closely related to one's own bloodline. The stronger one's bloodline is, the more powerful it will be. However, if one's bloodline is not strong enough, it is very likely that one's bloodline will be exhausted by the Blood Soul Sting and die. Even when I was at my peak, I could only use the Blood Soul Sting twice. Otherwise, it would be life-threatening," the Sky Demon said.
Jiang Feng was privately speechless. He hadn't thought that the power of the Blood Soul Sting's backlash would be so strong. However, on second thought, the power of the Blood Soul Sting was so strong with its bloodline as its guide, and the power of the backlash was so strong that it could be understood.
"Furthermore, the Blood Soul Sting can be used directly by the outside world's blood. However, if the bloodline power is too strong, it is very likely that it will backfire. Therefore, it's best not to borrow the foreign world's blood," reminded the Skyfiend.
"Understood."
Jiang Feng nodded and started comprehending the Blood Soul Sting.
Unknowingly, another five days had passed. On this day, Jiang Feng opened his eyes, the edge of his eyes continuously flashing.
He stood up and looked for his prey again. This time, his goal was to find a group of demonic beasts.
However, this kind of demonic beast was extremely difficult to find. It was not because there was no such species, but because there was a group of demonic beasts. There had always been a powerful Demonic Beast commander. If one wanted to command a Rank One Demonic Beast, he had to be at least at Stage Two.
A rank two demonic beast was equivalent to a human Zifu Disciple. Given Jiang Feng's current strength, it would be a bit difficult for him to deal with a rank two demonic beast.
He had no choice but to drive the scattered Demonic Beasts to one place and then take action.
He continuously absorbed blood to condense the Blood Soul Sting, but every time, the blood would directly evaporate and not burst out a powerful attack.
Fortunately, Jiang Feng was in high spirits. Two days later, when he once again condensed the Blood Soul Sting, a streak of blood-red light whizzed out from his fingertips. Like a blood sword, it pounced on a demonic beast that was comparable to the peak of the eighth level of the Body Tempering stage. It was likely that the power would swallow it up. Wherever the blood light passed, it would destroy everything.
The demonic beast had no power to fight back and was directly cut off by his lazy waist.
"I succeeded!" Jiang Feng was overjoyed. A demonic beast comparable to an eighth level Body Tempering demonic beast could not even withstand a single blow. The Blood Soul Sting was indeed powerful.
"Now, you can try to surpass the ninth level of Body Tempering Demonic Beast and use your condensed Essence Blood to condense the Blood Soul Sting," said the Skyfiend.
"Okay!"
After successfully forming the Blood Soul Sting, Jiang Feng couldn't wait to continue deeper in search of stronger demonic beasts.
There might be something missing in the forest, but there was no lack of demonic beasts. Very quickly, Jiang Feng met a demonic beast that was comparable to a ninth level Body Tempering demonic beast and attacked without hesitation.
However, he did not use the Blood Soul Sting directly. Instead, he used Shadow Kill and the Domineering Star Body to fight. During this period of time, his focus was on the Blood Soul Sting, but he did not ignore other cultivation.
After the great battle, Jiang Feng hadn't been at a disadvantage, but he couldn't do anything to his opponent. In the end, he condensed the Blood Soul Sting and killed him with one move.
"Whew!"
As soon as the Blood Soul Sting appeared, Jiang Feng felt as if he'd been hollowed out. He stumbled backwards, his face pale as he leaned against a large tree.
"Using one's own blood essence as a guide has indeed consumed an enormous amount of energy." Jiang Feng was astonished. Even though he'd gathered a large amount of blood essence beforehand, he still felt as if he'd been hollowed out at this moment. He believed that he'd definitely die tragically if he used the Blood Soul Sting again.
"That's right. Right now, you have two choices. One is to break through your realm, and the other is to hunt down more demonic beasts that are comparable to the ninth level of Body Tempering to strengthen your bloodline," the Skyfiend said.
The first option was even more risky. After all, the date of the battle was approaching. If he could not break through the realm, it would not be so easy to kill Che Shaodong.
As for the second method, as long as he condensed enough blood, he was more likely to kill Che Shaodong.
Jiang Feng thought for a moment and decisively gave up the second method. His expression was resolute as he said, "The strength of one's realm is always the most important."
The Sky Demon nodded inwardly. Although strength was important, if his realm could not keep up, no matter how powerful he was, he could not control it. In the end, he would only suffer a backlash.
Jiang Feng had quite a bit of awareness since he'd chosen to break through his realm in such a situation.
