Chapter 349: Chapter 348: Now I’ve Done It
Qin Feng gazed at the majestic and imposing Five Elements Palace.
A ball of flame appeared in Qin Feng’s palm. The next moment, his eyes shifted as a better idea came to mind.
Qin Feng’s gaze fell upon the lazy Eighth Master perched on his shoulder.
"Xiaoba, didn’t you awaken a Divine Ability?"
Hearing this, Xiaoba instantly perked up. He looked at the black-robed youth with shifty, bird-like eyes and said excitedly, "CAW CAW, Brother Feng, you finally remembered little Xiaoba!"
"CAW CAW, Xiaoba finally gets to take the stage!"
"How’s the Divine Power of that ability of yours?" Qin Feng stared grimly at the entire Five Elements Palace, a sinister smile touching his eyes.
Xiaoba puffed out his bare, featherless chest and said, "CAW CAW, Brother Feng, Eighth Master isn’t just bragging here. While you’ve been making rapid progress these past few days, Eighth Master has also been cultivating diligently. Brother Feng, just let me at ’em, and I guarantee I’ll kill every single one of those bastards!"
His beady bird eyes sized up the Five Elements Palace before him. Xiaoba excitedly wiggled his bird butt, a small tuft of gray feathers on his rear swaying back and forth comically.
Glancing at the ugly bird, Qin Feng snorted, his mouth twitching. ’If we’re talking about who benefited most from all the treasures I’ve stolen, aside from myself, it would have to be this ugly bird.’
’For some unknown reason, ever since it formed a connection with me, this drab, fleshy bird has been able to freely enter and exit my Chaos Heaven.’
’In the Chaos Heaven, all sorts of treasures were practically free for this ugly bird to enjoy.’
’The ugly bird even made a home for itself on the Tree of Chaos.’
’And look, in less than a few months, the feathers that had been plucked from its butt have already grown back, and it’s even gotten a size bigger.’
Given Xiaoba’s origins, even Qin Feng wasn’t entirely sure he could handle this devious bird now.
He didn’t doubt it when it said it could kill everyone in the Five Elements Team.
However, Qin Feng had no intention of wiping out the Five Elements Team. Besides, the team’s experts weren’t here anyway, so killing everyone would be pointless.
Qin Feng purely wanted to disgust the experts of the Five Elements Team.
"Enough nonsense. I’m not asking you to kill anyone. I just want you to use your signature Divine Ability!"
"CAW CAW, Brother Feng, can I ask for something else?!"
Speaking of its signature Divine Ability, the shameless bird actually looked a bit embarrassed for a change.
Qin Feng’s expression was indifferent. "Sure."
Xiaoba was overjoyed. Qin Feng continued, "But from now on, your share of Spirit Medicine, Spirit Wine, and Spiritual Spring water is halved!"
"CAW CAW, Brother Feng, no need to change the request!"
The ugly bird panicked and hurriedly flew up from Qin Feng’s shoulder. Like a gray shadow, it appeared in the sky above the Five Elements Palace.
The ugly bird wore a sorrowful expression, shooting its master a resentful glance. The next moment, it turned around, and a ferocious light glinted in its eyes.
"CAW CAW, for the sake of Eighth Master’s wonderful life, you ugly humans, accept Eighth Master’s righteous judgment!" the ugly bird muttered. It opened its beak, and a rolling yellow smoke enveloped the Five Elements Palace.
As the ugly bird was about to make its move, Qin Feng flickered, vanishing without a trace like a black shadow.
The experts from All Stars Academy watching this scene were a little baffled.
’Why did Qin Feng suddenly run away?’
A dozen or so breaths later, the experts of All Stars Academy understood why.
"Gods, it stinks!"
"What is that? The stench is killing me!"
"My heavens, someone help me! I’m about to pass out from the smell!"
"FUCK! Why isn’t sealing my acupoints working? I can’t take it anymore!"
...
Amidst the rolling yellow smog, countless curses rang out.
An indescribable, putrid stench enveloped the entire Five Elements Palace.
Stench!
An indescribable foulness!
It was as if a thousand years’ worth of ’Old Gold’ had been hoarded in a vat. The faces of the All Stars Academy experts twisted in disgust, and a few of them even foamed at the mouth and fainted on the spot.
The most unbearable part was that this nauseating odor bored straight into the depths of one’s soul. No matter how you channeled your Wind and Water Divine Abilities or sealed your acupoints, you couldn’t block out the stench.
This was Eighth Master’s Divine Ability, the Five Thieves Qi.
It was based on the saying, "When the heart holds a cuttlefish, its actions align with heaven!"
Unless one’s mind was pure and their soul was formidable, they would fall victim to it.
Eighth Master had already cultivated this Divine Ability to the point of perfection. It faintly carried the flavor of the Celestial Human Five Declines and the decay of all things. He hadn’t used his full power this time; otherwise, everyone would have been reduced to a pile of rotten flesh.
Yet even so, the stench was unbearable.
’What potent Five Thieves Qi. This ugly bird’s strength has progressed beyond imagination. Before, it could only spit out a single wisp of Five Thieves Qi at most. Now, it can spew out such a dense cloud, one that almost has the flavor of the Celestial Human Five Declines!’ Qin Feng thought to himself. One had to know that the Celestial Human Five Declines could even cause God-Demons to decay.
Inside the Five Elements Palace, the hundred or so experts lying in ambush could finally bear it no longer. They were like ants on a hot pan, tormented half to death by the incredibly nauseating odor.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
The sound of rending air was endless.
Figures tried to charge out from the shroud of Five Thieves Qi, but after barely a hundred paces, they couldn’t take it anymore, collapsing to the ground and vomiting violently.
High above, Qin Feng’s mouth twitched as his ears filled with the sounds of endless retching.
A gentle breeze blew, carrying the countless streams of pale yellow Five Thieves Qi toward the rest of All Stars Academy.
"The stench is killing me!"
"Where is this foul gas coming from?! I’m about to suffer a cultivation deviation!"
"I’m gonna be sick! I can’t take it!"
"Help!"
"Who did this?! I’m going to kill them! My Spirit Wine! It’s ruined!"
...
Following a series of shrieks, as if everyone’s tail had been stepped on, the entire All Stars Academy erupted into chaos. Countless figures could be seen desperately fleeing toward the outskirts.
Qin Feng even saw people in mid-air, running and vomiting violently at the same time.
Qin Feng’s jaw dropped. Watching the scene unfold, a bead of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
’I’ve really stirred up a hornet’s nest this time!’ Qin Feng’s eyelid twitched violently. The horror of the Five Thieves Qi had far exceeded his imagination.
It had accidentally spread to the entire All Stars Academy!
Cold sweat trickled down Qin Feng’s forehead.
"CAW CAW, Brother Feng, how about that? Little Xiaoba used every last ounce of his strength for you! Eighth Master guarantees the people below won’t be able to escape. We’ll let them vomit in misery!"
Qin Feng: "..."
Qin Feng shot a harsh glare at the proud and conceited ugly bird.
Only then did Xiaoba notice the chaos engulfing the entire All Stars Academy. The ugly bird gave an awkward chuckle, quickly flew back to Qin Feng’s shoulder, and shut its beak.
"Let’s go. We shouldn’t stay here any longer!" Qin Feng said, looking down and glancing around.
’Letting this little guy Xiaoba make a move was truly the worst decision I could have made!’ Qin Feng lamented internally.
Xiaoba’s beady eyes darted around. "CAW CAW, where are we going, Brother Feng? Are we still going to get revenge on Ao Kun?"
"Revenge? You just took revenge on the entire All Stars Academy! We have enemies everywhere now!"
Qin Feng shot the strange bird a vicious look, then his figure flashed, turning into a streak of light and flying toward the Three Mountains of the Spirit region.
The revenge plan was a complete bust thanks to Xiaoba’s Divine Ability. All Qin Feng wanted now was to return to Heavenly Red Peak immediately. Otherwise, once the Elders of All Stars Academy figured things out, there would probably be more trouble.
...
Outside All Stars Academy, a figure in green robes emerged from the darkness. He watched the streak of light vanish in the sky, a cold sneer on his lips.
He turned and spoke to the few people behind him.
"Notify Lord Yin Emperor and Lady Flower Empress immediately. The prey has entered the net. Tell their majesties to prepare!"
