Kounsat believed that he was several tiers stronger than Qin Feng. As such, neither did he suspect that Qin Feng had already discovered him, nor that he was actually walking straight into a trap.

  To him, it was entirely logical that Qin Feng could not sense his presence.

  Qin Feng smelled the decaying odor in the air when Kounsat was within a hundred meters of him. He faked a perplexed expression and gazed into the distance.

  Though Kounsat was concealing his body using dark runes, the odor of his puppet could no longer be masked.

  Qin Feng’s expression instantly changed. He turned around and sprinted away without much hesitation. Kounsat’s undead puppets naturally pursued him closely.

  “Haha! It’s too late for you to run now!”


  Kounsat cackled and unleashed a gush of dark runes.

  “Dark Shroud!”


  Darkness immediately engulfed the forest.

  Qin Feng’s speed slowed down tremendously after being surrounded by the thick dark fog. Kounsat approached him speedily riding on a giant undead puppet.

  There was only a thirty-meter gap between them now.

  “Go!”


  Qin Feng commanded five of his undead puppets to halt the assaulter.

  “Hahaha! How naïve you are to maneuver a puppet in front of the true puppeteer. Your undead puppets are nothing but a joke to me.”


  Kounsat was being cocky. He commanded four of his puppets. Though at a numerical disadvantage, Kounsat’s corpses rapidly ripped apart Qin Feng’s puppets. The most dangerous weapon of Kounsat’s puppets was the ptomaine.

  “Hahaha!” Kounsat laughed boastfully.

  “You are probably one of the top prodigies in the Huaxia Alliance. The fact that you could control the B3-tier beast general at B-tier speaks a lot about your potential. Unfortunately, your opponent is me. You would not have met me if you had stuck your ass at Huaxia.”


  Qin Feng stopped his frantic escape and turned around. Despite the darkness, Kounsat could clearly see the smile on Qin Feng’s face.

  Kounsat froze when he confirmed that Qin Feng was indeed smiling.

  “Actually, B3 beast generals are not the only puppets I can control.”


  Qin Feng relayed the message through his consciousness. A bad feeling crept into Kounsat’s mind.

  Qin Feng triggered his conscious power and the darkness surrounding him was promptly dispersed. The forest came back into vision with a telling difference.

  Unbeknownst to Kounsat, they were now encircled by more than a hundred large-sized undead puppets.

  “Look over here, these are B1-tier beast kings. Those there are B3-tiers. Here, these are B6-tier beast kings. Wait a minute, what are we seeing here. It’s a B5-tier beast emperor!” Qin Feng pointed lastly at the strongest puppet he had spent a lot of effort capturing.

  Kounsat, who had been watching, was blown away.

  ‘I was tricked!’


  The degree of Qin Feng’s conscious power must be unbelievably high judging by the number of powerful puppets he managed to command. Even Kounsat could not have control of so many powerful corpses at once.

  If Qin Feng’s consciousness was this vast, then it was impossible for him to not realize that Kounsat was approaching earlier. In other words, Qin Feng had purposely lured him in.

  The beasts besieging them proved just that.

  “Who, who are you?” Kounsat bellowed through his consciousness, “Obol and you must have colluded and lied to me!”


  Qin Feng was surprised to hear the name but it was not entirely unexpected.

  “You trusted Obol? I am his enemy. He would be pleased to see the two of us exhaust each other and be the third dog who runs away with the bone.”


  Kounsat’s face contorted into a scowl as if he was yelling, ‘How dare you deceive me, Obol!’


  But then, his face quickly twisted into an ugly smirk. “Since we have a common enemy now, we should work together against him instead. We are both dark ability users so it’s not ideal to harm each other and fulfill Obol’s wish. If you wish, I can teach you the way of corpse ptomaine alchemy. That will increase your puppets’ threat into a whole new level!”


  “To be honest, I don’t think it’s all that difficult to kill you first then only turn on Obol. Why should I collaborate with a weakling like you? You must be considered an elect in the West American Alliance. Unfortunately, you have bumped into me. You wouldn’t be in such a predicament if you had stuck your ass in West America.” Qin Feng answered sarcastically through his consciousness. These were similar to what Kounsat had said to belittle Qin Feng earlier.

  That obviously infuriated Kounsat.

  “Boy, do you think I am really afraid of you? Die now!”


  A horrible creature suddenly hopped out from the shadow behind Qin Feng.

  It was none other than Kounsat’s humanoid puppet. The undead puppet was S-tier and extremely powerful.

  Crack!

  Qin Feng’s internal force shield broke instantaneously.

  Qin Feng’s internal strength was so great that even an A-tier ancient warrior would need at least eighteen hits to shatter his shield.

  Shockingly, the shield collapsed instantly in a single attack by the undead puppet.

  Nevertheless, the small knife in the hand of the puppet stopped short right before it cut through Qin Feng’s neck. It was only one cm away from beheading Qin Feng.

  “Hey, have you forgotten that I am a dark ability user as well? Moreover, I am a better puppeteer than you!”


  In a split second, Qin Feng had already infiltrated the S-tier corpse with his consciousness and took away Kounsat’s control over the puppet. The puppet immediately stopped moving.

  Qin Feng possessed a B-tier beast emperor’s consciousness and had the potential of SS-tier. On the other hand, Kounsat was only an A-tier ordinary ability user. If not because of his dark ability and the corpse of an S-tier ancient warrior, he could not have been this bullish for so many years.

  Kounsat knew exactly what his weakness was. That was why he had not been merciful against other dark ability users.

  But today, he finally faced the worst possible situation.

  Today must be his unluckiest day.

  “Tear him apart!” Qin Feng triggered his consciousness and numerous puppets immediately swarmed on Kounsat.

  “No!!!” Kounsat shrieked in pain. Five beast puppets rapidly tore him apart. Even the scary corpse ptomaine could not stop the aggressive puppets. Kounsat’s dark ability had no use in front of Qin Feng. He tried to escape through the air but Qin Feng had five flying beasts waiting for him in midair too.

  The escape-proof trap was designed specifically for Kounsat.

  A few minutes later, Kounsat was shredded into pieces. Qin Feng absorbed the remaining energy dissipated from Kounsat’s corpse and was disappointed to find out that it did not even match that of a beast general’s ability core.

  Blitz!

  A current went through Qin Feng’s special communicator. Then Tung Yang’s voice was heard. “Qin Feng, why did I hear someone screaming from your side? Are you in a fight?”
