[Heavenly Destiny: Tyranny...]
Sensing the sudden appearance of information, Xia Feng was somewhat bewildered.
What exactly was this cheat that Miss Mu had? It seemed quite impressive.
To measure a Spirit Master’s strength, there are four basic indicators: Power, Agility, Spirit, and Mental.
Power refers to physical strength, which includes but is not limited to strength, physical robustness, and physical recovery...
Agility refers to physical speed and sensitivity to space, those highly sensitive to space can even traverse space to achieve instant steps.
Spirit naturally refers to Spiritual Particles and Spiritual Pressure.
Mental refers to spiritual power.
Among the four basic indicators, Power and Agility do not show significant improvement from apprentice to Third Rank Spirit Master; only upon entering the Fourth Rank—
At this stage, the Spirit Master’s life level undergoes a fundamental sublimation, and Power and Agility greatly increase, which is also why Spirit Masters of the Fourth Rank and above are rarely killed.
The unit of Power is ’D’ or ’point.’
Normally, a Third Rank Spirit Master’s highest is 300 points of power, with one punch possibly instantly knocking out a strong, healthy man. Upon advancing to the Fourth Rank, a Spirit Master’s power value is around 1000 points, killing a tiger with a single punch is not an issue.
The cheat that Mu Qingtong had just realized, although it only gave a 0.1 point increase in strength... as long as one keeps accumulating it, punching people daily, non-stop, inflicting continual pain on the enemy, then her power would endlessly increase, eventually turning her into— a Punch Witch!
Similarly, Xia Feng would also become— a Punch Superman!
Yes, although he couldn’t use Miss Mu’s cheat, he could enjoy the benefits it brought.
This was different from Mu Qingtong’s Spiritual Artifact. The Spiritual Artifact provided her with a massive boost in spiritual power, like donning armor.
However, the power enhancement brought by the Heavenly Destiny Stone directly affected her body and soul, which Xia Feng naturally synchronized with.
Thinking this, Xia Feng’s eyes lit up, and he suddenly stood up.
"If that’s the case..."
He suddenly felt a bit itchy.
He pushed open the door and walked out, his dark eyes shining, just in time to see the woman in the black dress standing up, her voice gentle and soft, "Mr. Xia, I—"
"Spare me your words, silly woman surnamed Mu, let this master see what you’re made of!" Xia Feng arrogantly sneered, and with a step, he immediately transformed into a shot arrow, shooting towards the black-dressed woman!
Thump—
However, he had only flown halfway when his spirit felt dazed, and in the moment his body hung in the air, the woman in the black dress’s fingertips twinkled with lightning, and a high-intensity Spiritual Pressure beam suddenly pierced through his abdomen, spreading a wonderful tearing pain to his spinal nerves.
[You have inflicted 1.2T of pain on your target, gaining 0.12 points of power.]
Xia Feng fell to the ground, blinking as he looked up at the white luminescence, was this... what power felt like?
He really liked it!
Xia Feng sprang up with a carp’s leap, "Ha, Miss Mu is that all?"
His provocative words had just fallen when he realized the woman in the black dress was somehow already in front of him, her slender white finger gently pressing against his forehead, opposing his forward momentum.
Mu Qingtong looked at him with a gentle, helpless gaze, lightly saying, "Mr. Xia, can we get down to business first?"
"..." Xia Feng felt Mu Qingtong had a very strange maternal glow about her, her tone so warm and peaceful, it made one subconsciously calm down...
As if! Xia Feng tilted his neck back, disdainfully saying, "Miss Mu, you’ve been pretty cowardly lately. Are you that afraid of me?"
"Things are quite chaotic out there; are you sure you don’t want to handle that, Mr. Xia?"
Mu Qingtong’s hand was indeed a bit itchy, wanting to give this silly junior brother a good beating, but now wasn’t the time.
After all, conquering Mr. Xia needed a sense of ceremony, at least it had to be in a private, undisturbed place, where they could fight freely for seven days and nights.
This Calamity Realm wouldn’t last much longer, too many uncertainties.
Seeing that Mu Qingtong was calm and had no desire to beat him, Xia Feng felt a bit helpless; why couldn’t this woman take the opportunity to really thrash him for once?
But it wasn’t the time to be beaten either.
"Xia Feng, have you two cultivated until you’ve passed out, or do you no longer care about these people?" Cha Naixue’s dissatisfied voice came through his mind.
"Alright, alright, hold on, I’m coming."
Xia Feng, helpless, shifted his thoughts.
Two figures in black robes appeared in the sky above the outer world.
Beneath the drizzling curtain of rain, it was already a river of blood.
In the blood river stood nearly a hundred men and women with blank expressions and grinning lips, saying foolishly, "Dead... haha~ all dead~"
Their murmuring echoed disgustingly, while severed limbs, organs, and unblinked heads floated downstream past their ankles.
There were three hundred ’gods,’ and just over a hundred nobles—atrociously, it was truly a one-sided massacre, which ended quickly.
But what surprised Xia Feng was that Jiang Zhizi had collected the nobles’ souls, which were about to disperse, absorbing them into a snow-white Zhi Zi flower in her hand.
"Ugh, ah, let me out—"
Above the snow-white flowers, countless pitch-black faces screamed as they emerged, like numerous evil spirits from the Netherworld, their features ferocious.
"Jiang Zhizi! You bitch! Let us out—"
"Bitch—"
"I’m going to kill you! Kill you!! Ugh, ah—"
Hatred, despair, terror, and unwillingness mingled with the insults and screams carrying numerous horrifying negative emotions; the noise howled between heaven and earth, making the whole world seem darker.
Sensing someone approaching, Jiang Zhizi, grinning with bloodthirsty excitement, slowly lifted her head.
Two figures in black robes and wearing black K and red Q masks appeared beside the J-faced figure. She glanced briefly at the three of them and then continued to stare down at the Zhi Zi flower in her hands, seemingly uninterested in anything happening around her.
"Is this your Spiritual Artifact?" asked the K-faced person standing next to her, puzzled.
"Mm," Jiang Zhizi replied without looking up, still excitedly watching the resentful souls desperately struggling in the center of the flower petals, and said quietly, "A B-level Spiritual Artifact, Zhi Zi flower blooms, it can infuse all the despairing memories I’ve endured into the target, making them feel as though they’re experiencing it themselves."
As she spoke, her tone became more excited, "These pigs will step into my shoes and go through all my despair over and over! Every second we talk, they’re experiencing the seven years of hell I went through! Now... now they’ve already gone through a thousand years haha~ ha, ha, ha, ha~"

"..."
Xia Feng was impressed, exclaiming internally, damn, so this is the legendary punishment-class Spiritual Artifact, terrifying indeed!
But it had its limitations; it was of no use to him. Xia Feng then looked towards a corpse in the distance.
That was the body of a blonde man, with limbs severed and turned into a human pieta, a small dagger stabbed in his throat nailed him to the ground. At this moment, a semi-transparent Spiritual Body was struggling and screaming in his brows.
Considering Xia Feng might want to interrogate him, Cha Naixue purposely had Jiang Zhizi leave the person, not collecting him into the Zhi Zi flower.
However, Xia Feng didn’t actually have much to ask; all he wanted to know was who the garden owner was, but the blonde man knew nothing, only pleading with him continuously.
Xia Feng couldn’t be bothered to deal further, handing over the blonde man’s Spiritual Body to Jiang Zhizi and saying with a smile, "Let him experience the joys of the human world~"
Jiang Zhizi’s eyes brightened, "Of course! I’ll make sure you’re satisfied."
Amidst the terrified and agonizing cries of the blonde man, the three returned to the Rule Space.
"We still don’t know what the situation outside is. This Calamity Realm can last for 24 hours; we can keep these three hundred people here first, and go outside to see what’s happening in the Star Bone Pillar, to see if we can resume broadcasting the garden’s images."
Both women had no objections to Xia Feng’s proposal.
Due to Wei Shutong being inside the seal of the Star Bone Pillar, Xia Feng faced significant resistance while using the Calamity Realm to capture Wei Shutong and then the garden owner’s golden hand grabbed him, disappearing without a trace.
Wei, always courting death, I wonder if he can still survive this time.
The exit of the recreated Calamity Realm is the entrance and also the only way out; Xia Feng and the others removed their black robes, returned to their appearance at the banquet, and walked into the exit gate.
They had been inside the Calamity Realm for quite some time; at this moment, the first and second floors of the glass room were surrounded by the knights of Black Moon Church, a total of eighty stern-faced knights staring at the suddenly appearing gate.
Needless to say, the Black Moon Church responded quickly; right after Holy Daughter had an issue, reinforcements were immediately sent.
Following Cha Naixue, Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong stepped out of the gateway.
The knights all bent slightly, saluting in unison, "Holy Daughter."
"Holy Daughter, are you alright?" A bearded, square-faced middle-aged knight stepped forward from the lineup, approaching Cha Naixue with concern in his voice.
"Lord Cal, I’m fine," Cha Naixue shook her head, "You don’t need to make such a big fuss—"
Mid-sentence, she abruptly stopped, her purple eyes narrowing as she quickly retreated, pushing Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong back. At the same time, three ferocious snake mouths sprung from the ground where they had been standing, their bloody teeth still clinging to shredded human flesh.
Click—The three massive snake mouths snapped shut on emptiness.
The three stepped back together and re-entered the gateway, returning to the Calamity Realm.
"..."
"My god, has the Black Moon Church gone mad too?" Xia Feng wondered.
"I just received a secret message from Silver," Cha Naixue’s brows were furrowed, her voice grave, "She said the Archbishop has ordered my capture as a traitor to the Church Court."
"What?"
"The Archbishop seems to think I am a member of the Peach Organization, that I released the Seven-Eyed Level Calamity Realm, drawing all the nobles of the garden into it."
Cha Naixue frowned, "He’s labeled the Peach Organization as a cult, and thinks I’m tainted and must be captured and brought back for trial."
Xia Feng raised an eyebrow; he found the Archbishop’s actions quite puzzling, with an inexplicable sense of strangeness.
"The light of the Calamity Realm came from the second floor at that time; it’s probably a misjudgment, thinking it was you who released the Calamity Realm."
Mu Qingtong spoke quietly, her eyes narrowing slightly, "But the only one who had a chance to observe the release of the Calamity Realm was the garden owner, and only the garden owner would target the Peach Organization."
Cha Naixue paused, thinking, "So you’re saying that the Archbishop is actually... the garden owner!"
Xia Feng frowned, thinking. If that were the case, this Archbishop was probably trying to trap them in the Calamity Realm for a kill.
Facing such a high-level opponent as the Archbishop, he currently had no means of response or escape—but wait...
Maybe they could escape through the Evil Dragon Space?
Realizing this, Xia Feng stroked his chin and nodded; it was time to meet Evil Dragon Miss.
