Chapter 884 - Recovering Strength
Within the Misty Spatial World, Zhao Feng went to see the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly after making sure that the Five Poison Distinct Bees were doing okay.
The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly was usually the size of a thumb when not in combat mode. It was even smaller than the little thieving cat – similar to the Five Poison Distinct Bees.
However, Zhao Feng didn’t dare to underestimate it. When it recovered to its peak strength, the battle-power and supportive abilities of the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly were enough to even trouble Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords.
At this moment, the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly had only just entered the Misty Spatial World and was very weak, but it was on good terms with the little thieving cat. The little thieving cat seemed to have a unique ability that allowed it to get close to and communicate with most species, including those with a Ten Thousand Ancient Races bloodline. The Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly was no different; it would occasionally open its green eyes and communicate with the little thieving cat.
Zhao Feng had his own plans on how to recover the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly. The fluids from the Ancient Dream Realm seemed to have a very good effect on those with Ten Thousand Ancient Races bloodlines. Apart from that, Zhao Feng was going to use some other powerful life-related materials such as the pollen collected by the Five Poison Distinct Bees or the honey they made, as well as some Hundred Origin Fruit Juice.
Zhao Feng didn’t want to give it any Hundred Origin Sacred Honey; even he hadn’t used it yet.
If I gave the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly a serving of the Hundred Origin Sacred Honey, it might be able to reach the Mystic Light Realm right away. At that time, Duke Nanfeng would be almost able to completely look down on the entire lord dynasty……
Zhao Feng’s eyes twinkled, but he didn’t do that because; firstly, that easily exceeded the value of what Duke Nanfeng was giving him, and secondly, he had only met Duke Nanfeng recently and hadn’t reached the stage where he completely trusted him yet.
The situation of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty was extremely complex. It was hard to say whether Zhao Feng and Duke Nanfeng were going to be enemies or friends in the future, so Zhao Feng just wanted to uphold his promise and make the Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly recover its strength a little quicker.
As long as Duke Nanfeng was able to break through to the Mystic Light Realm and have a recovered Cloud Silkworm Saint Butterfly, he would definitely have a spot in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty.
An hour later, in an elegant room of the Duke’s Palace, Zhao Feng took back his consciousness and started to cultivate quietly.
Because his Sacred Lightning Body and Wind Lightning Technique had broken through not long ago, Zhao Feng needed to consolidate them a bit. Furthermore, the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body and Five Elemental Wind Lightning Technique contained some decent battle techniques that Zhao Feng hadn’t learned yet.
Increasing cultivation and physical force was just the foundation. In order to unleash one’s true potential, secret battle techniques were not to be lacking either.
After reaching the fifth level of the Golden Kun Sacred Lightning Body, Zhao Feng could learn the Sacred Lightning Force Punch, Undying Sacred Lightning Body, Sacred Lightning Protection, and various other abilities.
Sacred Lightning Force Punch was an offensive skill that could be cultivated when one reached the fourth level of the Sacred Lightning Body. However, Zhao Feng didn’t have enough time in the Divine Illusion Dimension, so he didn’t have time to learn it.
Undying Sacred Lightning Body was when the Sacred Lightning Body was trained to a certain level and gained an undying quality. It required years of cultivation and took a long time to cultivate.
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon had a similar undying quality, so it could ignore normal attacks. Those with strong undying bodies would usually be sealed since it was too hard to kill them outright.
According to what Zhao Feng knew, when he reached the 6th level of the Sacred Lightning Body, he could start to learn how to revive from blood. Unfortunately, Zhao Feng didn’t actually have the technique to learn from like the Demigod Kun Yun did.
Sacred Lightning Protection was a protective skill formed by combining the Wind Lightning Technique and the Sacred Lightning Body. Its defense was extremely strong, and it was extremely resilient against all types of Yuan Qi.
Zhao Feng estimated that, if he managed to cultivate the Sacred Lightning Protection, he would be able to ignore all attacks from anyone below the Mystic Light Realm, and even Mystic Light Realm Sacred Lords would be unable to kill him within a short amount of time.
"I’ll cultivate the Sacred Lightning Force Punch and Sacred Lightning Protection first to increase my offense and defense. The Undying Sacred Lightning Body can’t be cultivated right away anyway……" Zhao Feng decided.
Of course, apart from those three skills, there were many more, and Zhao Feng decided to focus on the battle techniques that were related to the Sacred Lightning Body. As for the Wind Lightning Technique, Zhao Feng had cultivated the Wind Lightning Inheritance to a very high level in his previous life, so he didn’t need to spend too much time on Wind Lightning battle skills.
In the blink of an eye, the majority of a month passed, and Zhao Feng finally managed to cultivate the Sacred Lightning Force Punch and the Sacred Lightning Protection technique.
Sacred Lightning Protection was relatively easier since it utilized the power of Wind Lightning to form a strong barrier of lightning.
Weng~~
An ancient barrier of lightning suddenly expanded around Zhao Feng with a flash and hum of lightning. This barrier wasn’t formed from normal True Yuan; it fused with the dominating force of the Sacred Lightning Body, and it could even reflect attacks. Normal Void God Realms would be severely injured if they attacked Zhao Feng’s Sacred Lightning Protection and cough out blood.
"The defense is extremely strong, but it can’t be easily used."
Zhao Feng was covered by a layer of lightning that seemed like a materialized layer of armor that protected every angle.
Zhao Feng then started to practice the Sacred Lightning Force Punch.
In reality, Zhao Feng had already seen the child Demigod use his version of this technique before, and the latter had used it with extremely profound Intent. Although Zhao Feng’s Intent was pretty profound, there was still a difference between him and a Demigod. Therefore, he kept on practicing this technique as he circulated the Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique in his mind.
Luckily, Zhao Feng’s God’s Spiritual Eye specialized in analyzing and learning.
Zhao Feng calmly cultivated in the Duke’s Palace, and his Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique allowed him to multi-task.
Zhao Feng spent another month on battle techniques. He then focused on his cultivation level and his soul.
A dark head floated near the edge of his purple Soul Sea in the dimension of his left eye. It occasionally glittered with wisps of God Tribulation Lightning.
This God Tribulation head was acquired during his previous life, and now that Zhao Feng’s Emperor Intent had mostly recovered, he could start to absorb the Tribulation Lightning within it again.
Unknowingly, the aura of the Tribulation Lightning within the head was starting to decrease.
I’ve already absorbed quite a bit of the Tribulation Lightning contained within the head. There’s only 50-60% left, and it won’t last very long, Zhao Feng thought.
The God Tribulation head wouldn’t be enough if he wanted to completely comprehend the Intent of and control the power of the God Tribulation Lightning. He would have to focus on comprehension while also trying to find other things that contained God Tribulation Lightning.
The wisps of the God Tribulation Lightning were absorbed by his Soul Sea. Zhao Feng used part of his Ten Thousand Divine Thoughts Technique to absorb the God Tribulation Lightning and condense his soul.
At this moment, Zhao Feng’s soul hadn’t completely reached the level of an Emperor, so it was behind the level of his Emperor Intent. On the other hand, his Emperor Intent quickly recovered to the peak of his previous life with the refinement of the God Tribulation Lightning.
"The rate at which I absorb the God Tribulation Lightning surpasses that of my previous life. As long as my soul-strength recovers as well, my overall strength will surpass that of my previous life." Zhao Feng’s eyes twinkled with expectancy, but unfortunately, he didn’t have many Soul Dao treasures.
The majority of the Soul Suppressing Stone had already been refined, and when Zhao Feng’s Emperor Intent completely recovered, the soul power within the Soul Suppressing Stone was quickly used up.
Of course, the Soul Suppressing Stone itself was still a treasure that could suppress powerful ghosts.
Half a month later, almost all of the Soul Dao treasures that Zhao Feng had in the Misty Spatial World were used up. Most of them weren’t strong enough, and Zhao Feng’s soul-strength managed to barely recover to the level of an Emperor.
The purple Soul Sea in the dimension of his left eye was eight or nine hundred yards long. Although it wasn’t a thousand yards long like when it was at its peak, the difference this time was that it was more condensed and had absorbed more God Tribulation Lightning.
Hu~~
Zhao Feng let out a long breath as he murmured, "I’ve recovered almost all my strength from my previous life."
At this moment in time, although he wasn’t at the middle stages of the Void God Realm like his previous life and his soul was a bit weaker as well, his overall strength had reached the same level. After all, Zhao Feng had cultivated the Sacred Lightning Body and had a strong physical body now. Although the defense of his Blood Devil Sun bloodline wasn’t as good as the Mystic Ice Scaled Race bloodline, its offense and explosiveness were much stronger.
Overall, he had recovered the same level of strength as the Left Eyed Heavenly Emperor at his peak. As long as he didn’t offend some forbidden existences, he could go wherever he wished in the lord dynasty.
Within a secret cultivation room in an elegant part of the Duke’s Palace, Zhao Feng spent most of his time on the Wind Lightning Technique as well as used it to refine his Sacred Lightning Body.
Crack!
At a certain moment, the Wind Lightning Crystal Core in Zhao Feng’s hand turned into ashes. The King-level Crystal Core he had obtained in the Divine Illusion Dimension had finally come to an end.
Although the essence of Wind Lightning in this Crystal Core was thicker than the Crystal Core of a Domain-level King, it had to be refined, so only a portion of it was absorbed in the end.
Zhao Feng’s expression was the same as usual as he kept on cultivating.
The 7th level of the Wind Lightning Technique was the Wood of Wind Lightning. He had a large amount of Wood-elemental treasures as well as some Dao of Lightning treasures. Adding on the fact that he had recovered his Emperor Intent, Zhao Feng’s cultivation speed was extremely fast.
On the night of a certain day:
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several stealthy figures appeared outside the Duke’s Palace.
"I didn’t expect Zhao Feng to be someone who took over another body or that he would have the battle-power of a peak Emperor."
"He’s staying in the Duke’s Palace right now. Although we will most likely win, we can’t just attack him on the surface, so we have to think of a plan."
Four males and one female could be seen in the night. All of their auras seemed to have merged with the moonlight. No one would be able to sense them unless they got extremely close.
The Kings and Emperors guarding the Duke’s Palace only occasionally scanned over the area, but they didn’t find anything.
