Chapter 274
Child Time,
Within the blue flame on the spiritual altar, a towering murderous aura spread out. It was just like a black cloud that covered a city in dense layers.
Elder Zhao, who had originally planned to leave, couldn't help but stop when he saw such a strange scene unfold.
"Bedevilment Pill! What pill did you say earlier?!"
He held onto a person's collar tightly and said, "Tell me, what is going on?"
That person was suddenly unable to catch his breath and immediately coughed, "Daoist Master Zhao, please calm your anger. You exerted so much force that my shoulder was almost dislocated."
Elder Zhao also realized that he had lost his composure. He put the man down and looked at him coldly. "Alright, you can say it now."
"Reporting to Spiritual Master Zhao, cough …"
That person straightened his collar. "Those vicious beasts that Ye Feng hunted are not only hunting for the crystal core, but also for the ingredients for the Bedevilment Pill, thus falling into an inner demon."
"Ugh …" "Falling into the devil's heart …"
Elder Zhao thought about it and felt a bit dizzy. Such a risky plan was simply courting death.
"This damn brat, his bad brain is already thinking of doing it himself …"
"Master, what do we do? Then we won't be able to leave," someone said with a shy face.
Elder Zhao pondered for a moment but still shook his head, "This …. "Let's continue watching for a while and just treat it as accompanying Starlight."
"Accompany me." Starlight stared blankly. Didn't you just say that I was stubborn? Why did you suddenly want to accompany me?
"What? You have a problem with that?" Elder Zhao glared at him unhappily.
Starlight smiled awkwardly, "Of course not."
The reason Elder Zhao said this was because he was worried about Ye Feng's safety. If he died carelessly, it might cause his cultivation level to drop due to the connection between their spiritual will.
At the same time, an ice-cold aura appeared in Elder Zhao's mind, heading towards the third floor of the Heavenly Mystery Palace.
Since the Bedevilment Pill had appeared, not to mention Ye Feng's safety, if he did not control it properly and went berserk, even his own disciple Qing Xuan would not be able to escape.
Thus, this time, he had no choice but to personally step in.
"Ye-feng, are you really heading towards the goal of awakening your talent?" Elder Zhao's voice was as calm as the waves.
… ….
On the other side, a moment after the Bedevilment Pill was consumed …
The black murderous aura enveloped a large area around Ye Feng, layer after layer. If he was far away from the ground, he wouldn't even be able to see Ye Feng.
Wisps of dark red blood began to flow out from Ye Feng's body, making him look extremely terrifying.
"This... "Why are they so scary?" Qing Xuan covered her red lips, as waves of fear flashed across her beautiful face.
Ye Feng squeezed out a smile from the corner of his mouth, "If it's not scary, how can it fall completely into the inner demons' heart? You should know that the ingredients for this Bedevilment Pill are all from those fierce and poverty-stricken beasts. Just how strong is the effect of this pill? You can think about it."
"Then …" Qing Xuan pondered for a moment. Her beautiful eyes flickered as she suddenly thought of a way, "Since that's the case, how about this? I will use the purification method and see if I can neutralize this evil aura and help you.
"Do not use it," Leaves shook her head, "Because, it is not the time yet."
Qing Xuan froze upon hearing this, "But, I saw that you lost so much blood …"
"Bleeding doesn't mean anything. Since I can still speak, it means that I still have some energy left to resist the corrosion of the Bedevilment Pill. Remember, once I completely fall into the inner demons, whether I can return successfully will depend on your performance at that time." Ye Feng looked at her meaningfully.
Qing Xuan licked her lips. She instantly felt as if the burden on her body wasn't light. "But, aren't you afraid that after I comprehend the Dao, I'll ignore you and just leave?"
"No, you won't. I can see your character," Ye Feng said with a smile.
Qing Xuan was stunned as a complicated look flashed across her beautiful eyes. "I …"
"Furthermore, the most important point is that there is still a blood contract between us."
When it came to the matter of the blood contract, Ye Feng had kept a close eye on the matter and did not say which matter it was that helped him. Therefore, to Qing Xuan, this was something that she had to accomplish.
Qing Xuan froze on the spot. After a while, she came back to her senses. She thought to herself, "Why is this Ye Feng so inflexible that he wants to bring along the matter of the blood contract?"
"Ye Feng, I'm guessing you're not the type that's good at dealing with women …"
But soon, there was no time for her to think about other issues.
The Qi of the Bedevilment Pill became denser and denser, as if it was trying to assimilate the entire space. With Ye Wen as the center, it started to spread out in all directions.
The layer upon layer of dark clouds dispersed. After a long period of holding his breath, Ye Feng accidentally inhaled a small mouthful. Immediately, his expression became extremely ugly.
It was especially hard to bear. It was as if he was dead.
Sweat poured down from Leaves' cheeks like rain. He closed his eyes and carefully felt the origin of the pain.
"Cough cough …" He coughed heavily, his face extremely pale. Wisps of pale air curled around his body like snakes slithering around his body.
The wondrous energy aura lingered around without dissipating. Suddenly, Qing Xuan froze in her heart, and then she immediately cried out in joy.
"Ye Feng, that's great. Your forehead is the same as mine. It looks like there is something flashing."
At this moment, Ye Feng had already closed his eyes and frowned, "This is not a good thing. I just stimulated the pill to its peak and it's still only at the level of enlightenment. It seems that it's still not enough."
There was a light between his eyebrows. This was the precursor to comprehending the Dao. However, he still needed to find talent.
… ….
With this, the crowd outside the Tian Ji Palace began to curse.
"Look, what is this Ye Feng talking about? What does he mean by 'comprehending the Dao'?"
"Yeah, this person is a bit too arrogant. Who does he think he is? Isn't he a country bumpkin from Lei Zhou city?"
The white-robed servant sneered as he glanced at them. He was the closest to the spirit altar, Blue Flame, and had observed Ye Feng for the longest period of three days.
"What other people say or do is their business, that's their business. But if you guys still attack others as you please, then don't blame me for not being polite and sending you out of the Celestial Sect of Wonders."
"You …"
"Gu Hao, since you trust Ye Feng that much, do you dare to make a bet with us, and bet on Ye Feng to win?"
"That's right. If you have the ability, then bet with us."
Gu Hao was stunned, he then shook his head: "No, since I am from the forbidden area of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, then, we must be careful with every word and action, we must not lose face for the Celestial Sect of Wonders."
"What a great saying, 'Do not lose the face of the Celestial Sect of Wonders'. From what I see, you don't dare to gamble at all."
The crowd burst into laughter. Many of them were friends of Wang Tian Zhi or Young Master Hua, so they naturally didn't think much of Ye Feng.
"Alright, then I, Xing Hui, am willing to bet in place of Gu Hao. I'll bet on Ye Feng to win, how about that?" Xing Hui's calm voice sounded by his ear. He smiled as he walked to Gu Hao's side and stood beside him.
Everyone's heart turned cold as they turned to look at him.
After all, Starlight was a disciple of Daoist Master Zhao of the Celestial Sect of Wonders.
Elder Zhao was surprised and hurriedly looked at Starlight from below the stage, indicating for him to come down immediately.
However, Xing Hui didn't seem to notice it at all. It seemed that he was determined to help Gu Hao and Ye Feng.
"Alright, let's stop arguing. Hurry up and continue watching. Look, what is Ye Feng doing?" Someone suddenly pointed at the blue flame in the spiritual altar.
… ….
He only saw the third floor of the Heavenly Mystery Palace.
Ye Feng thought for a while, and gathered the spirit energy at the blood veins on his arms. A light flashed in his eyes, and then, a monster made of spirit energy suddenly appeared on his palms.
"Gui Ying, help me devour the Spiritual Energy condensing at the center of my forehead. I don't need to comprehend the Dao right now. Immediately …"
There was only one person who would have a chance to comprehend the dao. Since Qing Xuan had already comprehended the dao, even if Ye Feng succeeded, it would be useless.
Furthermore, all the preparations he had made were all to awaken his innate talent. That way, he would have to be careful at every step and not be careless.
"Okay, understood." Seeing that he was serious, Gui Ying immediately responded and moved to fight.
As Gui Ying continued to absorb the spiritual energy from Ye Feng's body, the remaining Qi of the Bedevilment Pill began to rise in power. This way, the power of the pill could be seen even more clearly.
When the extremely dense demonic qi seeped into Ye Chen's skin, it began to emit hissing sounds.
Ye Feng's method of letting Spiritshadow continuously absorb the spiritual Qi between his eyebrows was undoubtedly going against the way of doing things, and could very possibly cause him to fall into an inner demon. However, he was different from the others; this was precisely the realm he pursued.
A black seal wrapped around Ye Feng's body like a totem tattoo and slowly entered his arm. It rushed up Ye Feng's neck and face.
"How is it? Not bad, Ye Feng, if you can't hold on, I'll help you." Qing Xuan looked at him worriedly, staring at the black mark on the right side of his face.
She wanted to try out her new Dao of purification.
Seeing that Ye Zifeng didn't reply, she added, "I owe you this dao comprehension. Forget about your talent awakening. But, don't lose your life."
However, Ye Feng still did not answer her and remained motionless.
"This... "Could the pain have made me faint?" A hint of panic flashed across Qing Xuan's beautiful eyes. Just as she was about to help Ye Wen up …
Suddenly, Ye Feng abruptly opened his eyes. With a vicious gaze, he viciously grabbed Qing Xuan's throat and poured her onto the ground.
