The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 1494: Zifeng's New Ability

On the other side, Ling Feng remained completely unaware of the upheaval within the Hunting Battlefield.

At that moment, he was fully immersed in alchemy and cultivation. Before him sat the Yin-Yang Mystic Fire Cauldron, and with the grade of this cauldron, refining ninth-tier medicinal pills posed no difficulty at all.

As for pills beyond that level, even Ling Feng had little confidence in succeeding.

During his time in the underground world, he refined his body daily using heavenly treasures. His mastery of the Dragon-Elephant Tyrant Body Art rose steadily, and he gained two to three dragon's strength each day.

At the same time, with the aid of pills that stabilized his cultivation and weakened bottlenecks, his cultivation had nearly reached the limit of the Spiritual Sea Realm. He could already be considered a half-step human emperor.

In less than a month since arriving at the Hall of War, he had advanced from the seventh level of the Spiritual Sea Realm to the level of a half-step human emperor. Such speed could only be described as monstrous.

Rapid breakthroughs often resulted in an unstable foundation, yet Ling Feng compensated for this flaw with numerous ninth-tier medicinal pills.

All he needed now was a final moment of insight. Once that came, he would break through into the Creation Realm and ascend as a true Human Emperor.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

The situation within the Hunting Battlefield had become increasingly complex.

After the barbarian forces were nearly wiped out by the ancient devil Anos, the conflict shifted. The remaining battles now centered on the Hall of War disciples led by Song Feilian and the demon race led by Ye Qingxue of the Fox Clan.

Both sides suffered losses in continuous clashes. The Fox Clan's cunning and ever-changing tactics caused constant trouble for Song Feilian, who lacked strong leadership ability.

If Yang Zhen had not fallen into trouble, their cooperation might have already ended the battle.

Meanwhile, both Yang Zhen and Wen Te had vanished after the awakening of the ancient devil.

Wen Te, ever cunning, chose not to reveal himself. He understood that to become the final victor, he had to wait until the Hall of War and the demon race reached their decisive clash, then seize the final spoils!

By then, whether it was Song Feilian, Yang Zhen, or Ye Qingxue, all would become stepping stones beneath his feet!

...

Ling Feng knew nothing of the outside situation. Within the underground world, his strength improved dramatically each day.

After ten full days, he finally reached the Strength of Fifty Dragons.

With that level of strength, he now had some confidence in facing an expert like Wen Te head-on.

The most pressing issue now was how to leave this underground world!

Ling Feng took a deep breath and stood up slowly, putting away the Yin-Yang Mystic Fire Cauldron. Every valuable herb, flower, and even the surrounding soil had already been scraped clean and stored inside the Five Elements Heavenly Palace.

Once transplanted, those herbs would continue to grow and multiply. Within that environment rich in wood-attribute spiritual energy, their growth rate would far exceed that of the outside world.

He clenched his fist lightly and felt the surging strength within his body. A faint smile appeared on his lips.

"Strength of Fifty Dragons. Combined with the king-tier martial skill Phantom Wave Primordial Palm, my combat power has increased by at least tenfold! It is time to leave and see what is happening outside."

He knew he had used Anos to eliminate dozens of barbarian elites, yet none of those kills counted toward his tally. His token remained at the silver phase, and reaching the diamond phase now seemed nearly impossible.

Even so, he had no intention of giving up on entering the "War God Temple". At the very least, he aimed for a top-five position!

Lost in thought, Ling Feng arrived at the exit of the underground space. Over the past ten days, he had sensed powerful spiritual consciousness sweeping through the area, as if the surrounding beasts were puzzled by the decreasing spiritual energy leaking from within.

If not for their fear of Anos's aura, those beasts would have already charged inside.

Since returning the way he came was no longer an option, he had no choice but to pass through those beasts.

It was a daunting challenge!

Even with his greatly improved strength, the overwhelming auras at the exit made his scalp tingle.

Facing one or two beasts might be manageable, especially with Thunder God Shadow for evasion. However, if they attacked together, he would be torn apart instantly.

Just as Ling Feng was at a loss, a flash of purple light appeared. Zifeng shrank to the size of a fist and landed on his shoulder, chuckling.

"Master, I might have a solution!"

Ling Feng's eyes flickered. "Zifeng, you have a plan?"

Since devouring a large amount of Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Flame Essence, Zifeng had been in deep sleep. Now that it had awakened, it likely gained a new ability.

"Mhmm! Mhmm!"

Zifeng nodded eagerly. "Of course! I can be useful sometimes too!"

Ling Feng rolled his eyes. Usually, this little creature did little more than act cute. Compared to it, Despicable Donkey, despite his greed, was always eager when benefits were involved.

"What are you planning? Are you going to evolve by molting using those beasts?"

"Of course not!" Zifeng pouted. "Those creatures are not elemental life forms, so I cannot use them for molting. But after absorbing the Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Flame Essence, I awakened a powerful ability!"

"Oh?" Ling Feng's eyes lit up. "Let me hear it!"

Zifeng grinned. "It is called Parasitism. I can enter another creature's body and control it. Those fierce beasts may have strong bodies, but their minds are simple. I have a high chance of succeeding."

Ling Feng's eyelids twitched.

This ability was terrifying!

In other words, if Zifeng controlled one of those beasts, Ling Feng would gain a Great Emperor-level beast as a subordinate. By hiding inside its mouth, he could leave this place safely and effortlessly.
