I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

Chapter 453 - 285: Dragon of the Darkness Flame

The benefits of successfully forming a Spirit Body this time far exceeded Zou Feng’s initial expectations.

’But while the benefits are great, what about the big brother who took the fall for me? How’s he doing now?’

At this thought, Zou Feng immediately checked the List of Gods.

But upon checking, the original number one on the list, Wang Rui, was gone.

’He’s dead already!?’

To be honest, Zou Feng was rather surprised. After all, Wang Rui was considered an elite of the Inner Sect.

’The price for forging the Only Me Poison Venerable Body was actually this high...’

Although the sacrifice was a good thing for Zou Feng, he couldn’t help but have another concern.

This was the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect, after all. Who knew how many powerful experts were hidden here? And what’s more, the unfathomable Celestial Dao Cauldron monitored everything.

Wang Rui had been perfectly fine, yet he had suddenly dropped dead overnight. If this attracted the attention of the Sect’s higher-ups and led to a detailed investigation...

’At that point, would the power of the List of Gods still be able to fool them?’

Though he was worried, what was done was done. There was no point in dwelling on it.

’The List of Gods got me through the Kouxian Gate trial; it should be fine.’

Zou Feng didn’t linger. He got up and quickly departed.

Before the sky fully brightened, Zou Feng quickly returned to Courtyard No. 9.

Successfully forming a Spirit Body, according to the system of Great Yan’s Martial Artists, meant that he had reached the First Grade Realm.

After this, he could attempt to break through to the Spiritual Energy Realm and enter the Inner Sect.

But for Zou Feng, this step was no longer difficult; there wasn’t even a bottleneck to speak of.

This was the confidence that came with the Only Me Poison Venerable Body.

All he had to do next was adapt to the Only Me Poison Venerable Body as quickly as possible.

Once he was mostly adapted, breaking through to the Spiritual Energy Realm would be a matter of course.

Returning to his room, he found Gongsun Jinghong and Teng County had already been waiting for a long time.

The moment they saw Zou Feng walk in, their eyes lit up.

"Congratulations, Brother Feng, on successfully forming your Spirit Body!"

Teng County was the first to step forward and offer her congratulations.

Gongsun Jinghong, however, was extremely curious about what kind of Spirit Body Zou Feng had actually formed.

Zou Feng pulled Gongsun Jinghong into his embrace and said, "As for what my Spirit Body is like, you’ll know once you give it a try!"

With that, he immediately initiated another Cultivation session of the Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill.

In less than half an hour, Gongsun Jinghong was utterly routed and forced to retreat.

She had already been struggling to keep up with their Kan and Li Skill Cultivation recently, but now that Zou Feng also possessed the might of a Spirit Body, it was even more than she could bear.

It was now completely impossible for her to cultivate the Kan and Li Skill with Zou Feng for extended periods as she had before.

Seeing Gongsun Jinghong on the verge of passing out, Zou Feng wasn’t about to push her too far and immediately retracted his power.

But although he had stopped the Skill, the session hadn’t even completed a single circulation. It was hard to just let the stirred-up energy subside.

So, Zou Feng slowly turned his head and looked at Teng County with a burning gaze.

Teng County wanted to meet his expectant gaze, but in the end, she could only give a wry smile. "Brother Feng, you’ll have to wait. I need to form my... Spirit Body... before I can..."

Hearing this, Zou Feng naturally didn’t press the issue. "It’s fine," he said. "Don’t rush. Forming a Spirit Body has to be done slowly. We can’t have any mishaps."

Although he dropped the matter, Zou Feng couldn’t help but feel a lingering sense of dissatisfaction.

After all, his Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill was so close to reaching the Extraordinary to Saint level.

In fact, the boost from the Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill had played an indispensable role in why Zou Feng had been able to cultivate the Fiend-Drawing Art so quickly.

He had started cultivating the Kan and Li Skill back in the Great Yan era; in a way, Zou Feng had already begun his journey of Immortal Cultivation back then.

This was equivalent to laying his foundation in advance, which was why he could seamlessly continue his Skill Cultivation and maintain his explosive momentum after arriving at the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect.

Therefore, even though he wouldn’t be majoring in Dual Cultivation Skills, he definitely wouldn’t let this one fall by the wayside.

In fact, after his Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill reached the Realm of Transcendence and Sanctity, Zou Feng even planned to pick out a new Dual Cultivation Skill.

This way, not only would he benefit, but Gongsun Jinghong and Teng County could also barely manage to keep up, preventing the gap between their Cultivation Realms from growing too wide in the future.

Besides, once he reached the level of a True Disciple, he would often need to lead expeditions into the Outer Realm. For that, a group of reasonably powerful and trustworthy allies would be indispensable.

So, while Zou Feng had no intention of forming any kind of organization, it was only natural that he should cultivate the abilities of these beautiful confidantes he knew so well.

’Unfortunately, my current strength is still insufficient. I can’t guarantee a safe crossing of the Fallen Immortal Sea.’

’Therefore, I can’t bring Tian Yun and Bian Yixia over for now.’

’I expect that once I’ve established my Dao Foundation, I should be confident enough to bring them both here...’

After a short rest, Zou Feng had to head to the Dining Hall for his shift.

Nowadays, he didn’t mind his job as Head Chef at the Dining Hall. After all, the Comet Fried Rice had become quite famous in the Outer Sect, and disciples from other peaks would often come specifically to pay for a plate.

Every little bit helps, and as long as he was earning Immortal Fate, there was nothing to complain about.

However, having successfully formed his Spirit Body, Zou Feng didn’t forget about Inner Sect Elder Xue, who had gifted him the Heart-Soothing Grass.

It was worth noting that the Heart-Soothing Grass turned out to be a consumable item.

After Zou Feng succeeded in forming his Spirit Body, the pot of grass inevitably withered.

And this was a favor Zou Feng would not neglect to repay.

Thus, after arriving at the Dining Hall, he had someone help prepare two thank-you gifts. One was for He Wenxuan, and the other was sent to Xue Cang.

After all, he still planned to open a private restaurant within the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect one day, so he had to maintain his connections within the Spirit Chef community.

After a busy morning, as Noon approached, Zou Feng overheard many disciples discussing a scandal from the Inner Sect.
