Chapter 303 Eating Twice, Mastering Prison Suppression! [Two Extra Chapters!]
"The Jade Tooth Elephant Clan is very wary, and Elder Vinayaka is not easy to fool."
Trying to obtain resources directly by disguising one's identity is probably not going to work.
Xu Feng said in a deep voice.
"Moreover, they have a 'Clan King' at the Ultimate Lord level who is in seclusion, which is an even bigger problem."
"Ultimate Lord?" Isabella gasped.
Xu Feng communicated in a foreign language the whole time, so she couldn't understand what they were saying.
But upon hearing Xu Feng say this, he was immediately startled.
That's comparable to a human god of war at the pinnacle of power!
Xu Feng knew that the other party's clan had such a powerful figure, yet he still dared to impersonate them and infiltrate their clan?
"Then—what do we do? Give up?"
Isabella took a deep breath and asked.
Although she also wanted to find out about her people, she was even more aware of how terrifying the Limit Lord was.
Xu Feng did not answer immediately.
He stood there, his gaze fixed on the direction of Sacred Elephant Valley, his eyes flickering as if he were weighing something.
As night deepened, the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, plunging the mountains and forests into gloom.
After a long silence, a resolute glint flashed in Xu Feng's eyes.
"Give up? Of course not."
He turned to look at Isabella and Morley, his voice calm, yet carrying a chilling undertone.
"Since the soft approach isn't working—we'll have to use the hard approach."
Isabella stared in shock, her eyes wide. "You... what do you want to do? That's the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan, they have a Limitless Lord!"
"The Limit Lord is in seclusion, isn't he?" Xu Feng's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Before he leaves the pass, kill everyone you can...
Weaken their power, create chaos, and then... we'll find another opportunity.
He looked at Morley: "Tell me what you observed today: the distribution of lord-level powerhouses in the valley, their patrol routes, and their possible residences."
Tell me in detail about those suspected storage locations.
Morley nodded quickly and began to recall and describe it carefully.
Xu Feng, combining his memories from the day with Mori's description, quickly sketched a rough map of the interior of Saint Elephant Valley, marking the key targets.
"There are about seven lords who reside permanently in the valley, not counting the elephant king and elder Vinayaka who are in seclusion."
Two mid-level lords and five low-level lords.
Two of them are mid-level lords; one is guarding the area near the core altar in the valley, and the other is resting.
Five novice lords are scattered in key locations such as the treasury, training camp, and valley fortress.
'
Xu Feng lightly tapped his finger across the map, his eyes sharp as knives.
"Let's start with... these two mid-level lords and those five low-level lords."
Isabella's heart skipped a beat: "You want to... assassinate me?"
"Create an opportunity," Xu Feng did not deny. "You guys wait for me here, set up concealment and warnings, and I'll go in and take a look around."
"That's too dangerous!"
Isabella said instinctively.
She then realized that she seemed to be paying too much attention to this "savior" she had only known for a few days, and quickly looked away.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
After Xu Feng finished speaking, his figure became blurry again, and his aura completely disappeared.
But then he paused and instructed Isabella and Morley, "If I don't return in twenty minutes, or if there is a major disturbance in the valley, you must immediately retreat to the southeast."
Let's meet at the cave we agreed upon earlier.
"You...be careful."
Isabella felt a mix of emotions as she looked at Xu Feng, who was fully armed and exuding a restrained killing intent.
This savior's style of doing things is simply... crazy and audacious.
Isn't it said that the people of Daxia are extremely conservative and mild-mannered?
Not at all like it!
Xu Feng nodded, and with a flicker of his body, he silently stealthily made his way towards the direction of Saint Elephant Valley, as if blending into the night.
The Valley of Elephants is not quiet at night.
The heavy footsteps of the patrolling elephant warriors and the occasional shouts from afar set the tone for the night.
Xu Feng's first target was the low-level lord who was guarding a remote warehouse.
ten minutes.
This is the time Xu Feng set for himself.
I can kill as many as I can within ten minutes.
When the time is up, leave immediately.
The elephant lord was dozing against a stone pillar, his breathing steady.
More than a dozen high-ranking Jade-Toothed Elephants, at the level of Beast Generals, patrolled the area in shifts.
Xu Feng lurked in the shadows, waiting for a gap when the patrol teams passed by.
It's now!
The Divine Calamity—Condensed!
A mental spike, condensed to its extreme and silent, instantly pierced through the not-so-strong mental defenses of this low-level lord and entered the core of its sea of consciousness!
The elephant lord's body stiffened abruptly, and his eyes snapped open.
"puff!"
next moment.
A flash of cold light pierced directly into his brain through his eyeball.
immediately.
Xu Feng stirred it violently.
With a faint, almost imperceptible blue light, Caiyun precisely shattered the connection between the brain and spine.
The elephant lord's massive body slumped down without making a sound.
Xu Feng quickly dragged the body into the shadows nearby and then sealed the wounds with hemostatic gel to prevent the smell of blood from spreading rapidly.
Clean and neat.
Then they began looting the corpse.
Without pausing, Xu Feng once again disappeared into the darkness, making his way toward his next target.
Even a powerful creature as strong as a low-level lord would be instantly killed under his double attack.
Then, the third one...
The fourth one...
The fifth one...
Five novice lords disappeared from their posts in less than half an hour.
The night was dark.
The Valley of the Elephants remains tranquil, with only the sound of the wind and the distant murmur of the stream.
Unbeknownst to any of the elephants, a deadly specter was conducting a silent yet efficient "harvest" within their territory.
During this time, Xu Feng unexpectedly discovered a warehouse where the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan stored minerals.
After looting everything, he continued his search towards the center of the clan's territory.
Next up are the more dangerous mid-level lords.
just.
When Xu Feng reached the core area of the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan, his wrist suddenly jerked.
Xu Feng immediately looked down at the time.
Ten minutes have passed.
"pity."
So he turned around and left without looking back.
Just as when we came.
Xu Feng silently blended into the shadows.
Using the invisibility belt as cover, he quickly and cautiously made his way out of the Valley of the Elephant, following the pre-planned escape route.
Along the way.
Xu Feng avoided several patrol teams that seemed to be slightly delayed due to shift changes or routine inspections, without triggering any alarms.
Just as he was about to reach a relatively safe area near the mouth of the valley.
From the heart of the Sacred Elephant Valley behind them, the first roar, filled with shock, anger, and disbelief, finally resounded!
"roar-!!!"
That was an alarm sounded by an elephant warrior who had discovered the body of his comrade.
Immediately afterwards, more roars, heavy running sounds, and sharp warning whistles exploded one after another like a lit powder keg!
"Enemy attack—!"
"The warehouse guard is dead!!"
"Elder! The storeroom has been opened!!"
"Enemy infiltration! Be on alert! Increase vigilance!!!"
The entire Sacred Elephant Valley was instantly awakened from its slumber and plunged into chaos.
Torches were lit up to illuminate the scene.
Heavy footsteps surged toward the scene from all directions.
The shouts, questions, and commands mingled together, completely shattering the peaceful night.
Xu Feng could even vaguely sense that the terrifying aura deep within the valley, like a dormant volcano, seemed to have fluctuated slightly.
It was as if some ancient and powerful being had been disturbed from its deep seclusion by this sudden commotion.
After a short pause.
While remaining invisible, Xu Feng discovered that the other party had not identified who had committed the act.
So he felt relieved and quietly fled into the dense forest outside the valley.
They sped off toward the meeting point agreed upon with Isabella and Mori.
"Who?!"
Isabella's tense, low shout came from behind a boulder, her hand gripping the Xuanjin Battle Blade that Xu Feng had temporarily lent her.
"it's me."
Xu Feng dispersed his concealment and revealed his figure.
Isabella and Morley immediately emerged from their hiding place.
By the faint starlight, the two could see that Xu Feng had no obvious injuries, only some dust and... a very faint smell of blood on his night clothes.
The commotion emanating from the direction of Sacred Elephant Valley in the distance, along with the terrifying pressure that sent chills down one's spine, clearly indicated what had just transpired.
"You...you really..."
"
Isabella's blue eyes were filled with disbelief.
Could he really have caused such a commotion in such a short time in the heartland of the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan, where the Limit Lord is stationed?
"Hurry! This place is no place to linger!"
Xu Feng didn't explain, and turned to leave.
He sensed the overwhelming pressure of the Limit Lord spreading, and the search area was expanding.
The elephant king was awakened.
The three immediately set off, flying rapidly southeast along the pre-planned retreat route.
By daybreak, the three had traveled hundreds of miles away from the Sacred Elephant Valley and ventured into an even more desolate and rugged mountainous region.
The three stopped to rest temporarily in a narrow, naturally formed rock crevice.
The chaos within the Sacred Elephant Valley will clearly not subside easily.
The deaths of five lord-level powerhouses and the looting of an important warehouse are undoubtedly a great humiliation and a heavy blow to a proud and powerful race.
One can imagine how furious the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan will search for the murderer.
The entire northern part of the Shiva region will likely be in a state of panic as a result.
In the crevices of the mountains.
Xu Feng inspected the spoils of war while waiting for his meal.
"What...what did you do last night?"
Isabella finally couldn't help but ask.
While tending to the wounds that had reopened during her run, she glanced at Xu Feng, who was meditating.
Xu Feng opened his eyes and calmly uttered a few words: "Killed a few guards and took some things."
Morley was heating a pot of braised pork knuckle over charcoal fire.
Upon hearing this, he immediately raised an eyebrow.
Sizzle—
The stainless steel pot became scorching hot under the charcoal fire, constantly splattering hot oil around its edges.
The rich aroma instantly filled the air, whetting Xu Feng's appetite.
This pork knuckle was specially made for Xu Feng by Huang Sen before he left.
Twenty portions were made in total.
If you eat sparingly, it can last for two or three months.
Isabella, however, was not in the mood to pay attention to the food.
Hearing Xu Feng's words, she gasped.
Did they kill "a few" guards?
What could make the entire Holy Elephant Valley feel like it was facing a great enemy and enrage the Limit Lord was probably not just a "few" ordinary guards!
She looked at Morley.
Mori lowered his head slightly and remained silent, but the awe in his eyes deepened.
"We'll rest for three hours, and then we'll go back."
However, Xu Feng's next words almost made Isabella jump up.
"Go back?! Back to Holy Elephant Valley? Are you crazy?! They're definitely hunting down the killer all over the place right now!"
Xu Feng's lips curled into a strange smile: "Precisely because they are hunting down the murderer throughout the entire territory," that's why we need to go back.
"What do you mean?" Isabella asked, puzzled.
"We entered openly and legitimately as 'Inspectors of the White Stone Mountains'."
Xu Feng analyzed.
"We happened to be outside the valley when the incident occurred last night."
Now, we go back “knowing nothing” and express our concern about last night’s chaos, which may even help in analyzing the enemy situation.
In their eyes, we are suspects, but without evidence and given my special status, would they dare to take direct action?
Especially when we proactively returned to demonstrate our openness.
He paused, a sly glint in his eyes: "More importantly, after last night's fright and losses..."
That Elder Vinayaka probably hopes to get rid of this "unidentified" plague god as soon as possible.
The requests we made earlier might... become easier to fulfill.
Isabella was stunned. This line of thinking... was too audacious, too... shameless!
But upon closer reflection, it seems to make some sense.
When the other party is suspicious and in internal chaos, why would you go back and pretend to be stupid?
"This is too risky!" Isabella still felt it was inappropriate.
"Risk and reward go hand in hand."
Xu Feng said calmly.
"I need several other specific minerals that the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan might possess."
There was nothing in last night's harvest; this is the last chance.
If you're worried, you can stay here with Morley to provide backup.
Isabella bit her lip, remembering that her lost tribesmen might have been active near the Jade Tooth Elephant tribe, and perhaps she could find out some information.
She finally shook her head: "No, I'll go with you."
Xu Feng shrugged: "Do as you please."
Afterward, he took out some dry food and water and gave them to Isabella and Mori.
He then began to roll up the pancakes and scallions, savoring the braised pork knuckle.
Having made up her mind, Isabella glanced at the pork knuckle in front of Xu Feng, then at the dry rations in her own hand, and was speechless.
Seemingly oblivious to Isabella's resentful gaze, Xu Feng enjoyed his meal before closing his eyes to rest.
The three rested until the sun was high in the sky.
It's estimated that the chaos in Saint Elephant Valley should have subsided for the time being.
Xu Feng disguised the two of them again before heading towards the Sacred Elephant Valley once more.
However, they weren't moving fast this time, and seemed quite leisurely.
When they approached the Valley of the Elephants again, the atmosphere was completely different.
The number of guards at the valley entrance has more than doubled, and each of them is fully armed, with wary and menacing eyes.
The air was thick with tension and anger.
From the distant valley, the muffled bellows and commotion could still be heard from time to time.
"stand--!"
The captain of the guard was about to shout loudly when he suddenly saw Xu Feng's face and immediately shut his mouth.
"Your Excellency!"
However, its taut trunk, as if ready to attack at any moment, still allowed Xu Feng to discern the current atmosphere within the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan.
Xu Feng stopped, frowned, and said in an unhappy tone, "Why is the valley so heavily guarded? What happened? Are they wary of me?"
The guard captain quickly waved his hand: "Your Excellency misunderstands. Last night... um, something happened to my tribe last night."
"Please wait a moment, I will go and fetch Commander Tiryuk immediately!"
The captain of the guards dared not act on his own initiative and immediately sent someone to rush into the valley to report.
This time, it didn't take long before Elder Vinayaka, with a wry smile on his face, personally led a large number of elite warriors to the valley entrance.
The high-ranking lord elder's eyes were bloodshot, and his breathing was somewhat unstable.
Clearly, the shock and anger last night took a toll on him.
His gaze toward Xu Feng was incredibly complex, filled with scrutiny, suspicion, and apprehension.
There was even a hint of barely perceptible fear?
Yes, fear.
In fact, he had been wondering about it ever since he heard from his clansmen that Xu Feng had returned.
The tribe was attacked last night, just after the barbarian left.
This makes one wonder.
If what happened last night was indeed the work of this "Rock" in front of us, or was related to him, then this person's strength and methods are terrifying!
How could someone silently kill five low-level lords under such heavy guard and escape unscathed after looting the warehouse?
This was a nightmare for the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan!
Vinayaka clasped his hands in a salute before saying, "I apologize for keeping you waiting, Your Excellency. Last night, some villains sneaked into my Holy Elephant Valley, murdered six of my tribe's lords and warriors, plundered the treasury, and committed heinous crimes!"
"I was busy dealing with this matter, so I had to arrive a little late."
"What?!"
Xu Feng was "greatly surprised," and his disguised elephant tribe face revealed an expression of "anger" and "disbelief."
"Such a thing?! What kind of thief is so audacious? Has he been apprehended?"
"The murderer is cunning and has already escaped."
Vinayaka spoke coldly, his gaze still fixed on Xu Feng.
"Did the messenger discover any suspicious traces last night? Or hear any noises?"
Xu Feng shook his head, then solemnly said, "Elder Vinayaka, it seems the situation here is more complicated than I imagined."
There is definitely a powerful force stirring up trouble in the shadows with malicious intent.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have been given such a hard time as soon as I arrived!
Therefore, it is clear that our tribe's defenses must be further strengthened, and my duty to conduct inspections is even more urgent!
Vinayaka's eyes flickered.
He couldn't be sure whether what Xu Feng said was true or false.
If Xu Feng were truly the murderer, returning now would be tantamount to walking into a trap, yet he has returned, and with an air of nonchalance.
If he wasn't the killer, then who was the real killer?
What is the purpose?
Could they be Rakshasa?
Or perhaps the saber-toothed demon ape clan?
Or perhaps—one of the strongest among the human race?
Various thoughts swirled in Vinayaka's mind, giving him a splitting headache.
Although the clan king was alarmed and furious, his cultivation had reached a critical stage, and he could not easily leave seclusion.
However, he also ordered that no rash actions should be taken before there is conclusive evidence.
Especially the "Inspector" whose identity is questionable.
To avoid any unforeseen complications and potential conflicts with the "ancestral homeland branches".
Finally, Vinayaka suppressed his doubts and anger, forcing out a smile that was more like a grimace: "The messenger is absolutely right. Last night's events were indeed a misfortune for our people."
The clan king was furious and has personally taken charge of the investigation.
This place is not peaceful now. The envoy is of high status, and if he continues to patrol, there may be unforeseen risks.
Perhaps... you could tell me the list of resources needed, and I will procure them for the messenger as soon as possible.
The messenger should return and report as soon as possible to avoid causing further trouble here.
His words were both soft and firm.
It was both a farewell to the guest and a test.
They were even more eager to get rid of this "plague god".
Xu Feng was secretly delighted, but on the surface he showed hesitation and dissatisfaction: "This... I haven't finished my inspection yet, and besides, you've just been attacked. If I leave so directly, wouldn't it make me seem afraid?"
"Rest assured, Your Excellency!" Vinayaka quickly replied, "Our people will do our utmost to provide the necessary resources!"
As for the results of the inspection, the messenger can make a judgment and report based on what he saw yesterday and the events of last night.
The clan is currently in turmoil, and it is truly inconvenient for the envoy to linger. We ask for the envoy's understanding!
As for the claim that you're afraid, that's utter nonsense. Your status and strength speak for themselves; why would you be afraid of something so trivial?
Xu Feng pretended to ponder for a moment before "reluctantly" nodding: "Very well, since the noble has suddenly suffered a calamity, it is not appropriate for me to disturb you for any longer."
The required items were listed yesterday, and...
'
He seemed to remember something and added.
"When I was exploring, I heard that a human exploration team went missing near the Sighing Swamp a few months ago."
Perhaps some of them are members of the Campbell family. The nobles reside nearby; have you received any related information or captured them?
Vinayaka only wanted Xu Feng to leave quickly, and upon hearing this, he immediately shook his head and glanced at Mori beside Xu Feng: "Humans? Our race is isolated from the world and rarely has contact with humans, let alone captures them."
The direction of the Sighing Swamp is an area frequently inhabited by the Rakshasa tribe; the messenger might be able to inquire there.
Xu Feng observed the other party's expression and found it to be genuine. He felt slightly disappointed, but it was also within his expectations.
"In that case, I take my leave. I hope that the nobles will apprehend the true culprit as soon as possible and restore their prestige."
Xu Feng cupped his hands in farewell and said no more.
Vinayaka was eager for him to leave, so he quickly ordered his men to bring out the several boxes that had been prepared beforehand.
Clearly, while waiting for Xu Feng to return, he had already had supplies prepared according to yesterday's list.
This includes several special minerals that Xu Feng specifically requested.
Xu Feng checked it and, after confirming that it was correct, told Morley to put it away.
"It's a pity I didn't get to see you catch the real culprit. I really wanted to see his face and identity."
"Very well, since that's how it is, Elder Vinayaka, farewell."
Xu Feng took one last look at the exhausted high-ranking lord.
With Isabella and Mori by their side, they swaggered away from Elephant Valley once again, under the complex gazes of the many elephant warriors.
The three of them only stopped when they were far enough away from the Sacred Elephant Valley.
Xu Feng dropped his pretense and let out a long sigh of relief.
This "surprise attack" carries considerable risk, but also offers significant potential rewards.
Not only did they obtain the target mineral, but Vinayaka's eagerness to send the guests away also indirectly confirmed the psychological impact of last night's attack on the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan.
"withdraw!"
This time, Hsu Feng was completely satisfied.
Upon returning to the mountain crevice where he had rested, Xu Feng couldn't wait to begin tallying up his gains from the previous night and today.
First, let's look at the results of last night's assassination.
Xu Feng stole all the personal belongings of the five novice lords.
However, among these five elephant clan members, only two possessed storage rings, and both were extremely small.
The other three didn't have this thing at all.
The two rings contained nothing of value except for the cultivation resources, weapons, armor, and some privately hoarded ores unique to the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan.
Xu Feng was disappointed.
After calculating, the most valuable items are these two storage rings.
Furthermore, the greatest gain came from the contents of that storeroom.
In addition to a large quantity of high-purity jade-attribute ore, there are also three rare and ancient spiritual herbs.
In addition, there are five other minerals that shimmer with different qualities of light and exhibit strange and powerful energy fluctuations!
One of them, fiery red and containing the phantom of the sun, is naturally the Blazing Sun Crystal.
Its quality is slightly inferior to that obtained from the Rakshasa tribe, but its size is larger.
The other piece, a deep blue like the ocean, icy cold to the touch yet carrying a strange life force, is the Xuan Yin True Water Stone.
These two were the supplies that Xu Feng focused on collecting.
The other three are very rare and precious ores, which can also be used to forge various weapons.
A small portion of the many spiritual herbs needed to refine the "Body Refining Elixir" were also obtained during this raid.
Indeed, risk and reward go hand in hand.
A daring assassination and looting is far more efficient than methodical negotiations or searching!
Isabella couldn't help but gasp in amazement at the gleaming supplies piled up in front of Xu Feng.
How much did this guy actually profit from last night?
"Congratulations, Master!" Mori offered a timely compliment.
Xu Feng was in a great mood. He carefully sorted and put away the supplies before looking at the boxes that the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan had offered.
After a while.
Xu Feng counted carefully, and including the minerals he had "extorted" from Vinayaka, he had successfully collected five essential items.
There are only three more minerals to go, all located in the area inhabited by the saber-toothed demon apes!
This progress is far exceeding expectations!
He also gathered about two-thirds of the auxiliary spiritual herbs he needed from the harvests of the Rakshasa and Jade Tooth Elephant tribes.
There are still two rarer types missing.
"A good harvest."
Xu Feng's eyes showed satisfaction.
Although the Shiva region is chaotic and dangerous, it is indeed rich in resources.
This is especially true for these powerful alien races that have been entrenched for many years.
"Next, we'll rest for a few days, then head to the Raging Rift, the territory of the Saber-toothed Demon Ape Clan."
Xu Feng put away the supplies and looked at Mori.
"Tell me about the habits of the saber-toothed demon ape clan."
Morley quickly began to explain.
The saber-toothed demon ape tribe is known for its ferocity, belligerence, and unruliness, and is a mortal enemy of the Rakshasa tribe.
But while they are extremely warlike, they also worship strength and respect the strong.
They prefer high-quality metal ores and elixirs that can stimulate blood flow or strengthen the body.
He also enjoys various spirits and fresh blood dishes.
They despised the Rakshasa tribe's cunning and pretentiousness, and looked down on the Jade-Toothed Elephant tribe's defensive "turtle-like" approach.
Perhaps by demonstrating overwhelming power or providing them with something they desperately need but cannot easily obtain, they can turn the tide.
Morley answered in detail and provided his own analysis.
Xu Feng seemed to be deep in thought.
Demonstrating strength...providing urgently needed supplies?
Not urgent.
He has enough of these things on hand to do several body-refining exercises.
Let's push the level of the newly compiled Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique up a bit first, then it's not too late!
Over the next few days, Xu Feng, along with Isabella and Morley, traveled at a leisurely pace towards the Raging Rift in the northwest.
He deliberately slowed down, partly to give Isabella more time to recover from her injuries.
On the other hand, it is also to make full use of the time spent on the journey.
After completing his daily schedule and finding a safe campsite, Xu Feng would begin his "body-refining training".
His method of cultivation shocked the well-informed Isabella to no end, and even made her somewhat—incomprehensible.
There is no high-tech gene optimization chamber.
There is no sophisticated energy guiding device.
There were no medicinal herbs or spiritual plants to assist them.
What Hsu Feng did was so simple it was almost "primitive".
He would first take out a specially made large metal bucket and fill it with clean water.
Then, in a specific order and proportion, various spiritual herbs and mineral fragments, which appeared to Isabella to be of different shapes and sizes, some hot, some cold, and some strange, were added.
Some are crushed and added directly, while others need to be ground into powder using a blender.
In addition, some even need to be boiled before being poured into the bucket.
soon.
The water in the bucket began to boil.
The color kept changing, eventually turning into a pot of thick, paste-like liquid with a strange smell.
Then, to Isabella's astonishment, Xu Feng took off his shirt, leaving only a pair of specially made shorts, and stepped directly into the scalding hot liquid!
"laugh--!"
It was like cold water being poured into hot oil, producing a violent reaction sound.
Xu Feng groaned, his skin instantly turning bright red, veins bulging, and he even submerged his entire head in it.
At first, Isabella could see that Xu Feng's brows were furrowed, the faint golden lines under his skin were faintly visible, and his muscles were trembling slightly, as if he was enduring great pain.
The medicinal liquid in the bucket churned and boiled like a living thing, with impurities constantly being discharged and turning into blue smoke that dissipated.
Later, Hsu Feng even began to lose his expression, as if he had become accustomed to this pain.
This process often lasts two or three hours.
During this time, the color of the medicine will gradually lighten and the liquid will become thinner.
During this time, Xu Feng would occasionally get up and rub his entire body.
It was as if they wanted to integrate those minerals into their bodies.
His aura fluctuated accordingly, sometimes like a dormant volcano, sometimes like a surging river.
Xu Feng only slowly stood up when the medicine finally turned gray.
His skin retains some fine, crackled patterns, like those on porcelain.
But these lines quickly disappeared, and Xu Feng's skin became even more radiant, as if it contained boundless power.
Isabella comes from the Campbell family and has seen various cultivation methods within the family, as well as being exposed to the Eagle Alliance's most advanced biological enhancement technology.
But Xu Feng's cultivation method, which so closely combines ancient medicinal baths, extreme physical fitness, and almost self-torturous training, and achieves such remarkable results and such rapid improvement, is truly exceptional.
She had never heard of it before.
This is like using the most savage and direct method to gradually extract the potential of life from deep within the body.
Extracted by pressing, pounding, and soaking!
There are no shortcuts, no tricks, only sweat, pain, and an iron will.
"Do all martial artists in your Great Xia Dynasty train like this?"
One day, Isabella finally couldn't help but ask Xu Feng when he returned to the camp steaming after a simple hot bath.
Xu Feng wiped the water off his face and said casually, "Methods vary from person to person. This is just one approach."
Extraordinary methods are needed to accomplish extraordinary tasks.
My path is different from that of ordinary people.
He did not offer any further explanation.
Isabella looked at his skin, which had become smooth again and even had a faint golden sheen.
And that seemingly not particularly burly body, yet seemingly containing the power to shake mountains, this mysterious young man from Great Xia kept her in a state of silence, refreshing her understanding time and time again.
Mori faithfully fulfilled his duties as a guard and servant, looking at Xu Feng with nothing but awe.
Xu Feng was unconcerned about Isabella's shock.
He was basking in the thrill of his steadily improving strength.
He could clearly feel that after each medicinal bath and hammering session, his body was becoming stronger and more resilient.
As a result, one's Qi and blood become even more abundant.
As time passed, the three drew ever closer to the Raging Rift.
On the evening of the eighth day, just before we were about to reach our destination.
The three camped in a sheltered mountain hollow.
Xu Feng took a medicinal bath as usual.
The medicinal materials used this time included a rare spiritual liquid called "Earth Vein Stone Milk" obtained from the Jade Tooth Elephant Clan's treasury, as well as several auxiliary medicines to strengthen bones and tendons.
The liquid is amber in color, and its energy is restrained yet profound.
Xu Feng immersed himself in it, pushing the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique to its limit.
The sound of his blood and qi surging within him was like the roar of a great river, and his bones emitted a faint, crisp sound, like the gentle chime of a jade chime.
Isabella and Mori were startled by the strange phenomenon and watched from a distance.
Suddenly, Xu Feng's body trembled!
Buzz!
A terrifying aura, far heavier and more profound than before, seemingly emanating from the ancient primordial era, suddenly erupted from his body.
The surrounding air suddenly seemed to sink, the ground trembled slightly, and even the flames of the campfire were shrunk!
He stood up, splashing a spray of medicinal liquid.
At this moment, his physique seems to have not changed much, but the feeling he gives people is completely different.
An invisible force naturally spread out.
Although it wasn't deliberately activated, it already made Isabella feel breathless and her legs weak.
next moment!
Xu Feng suddenly opened his eyes!
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, like two solid golden lightning bolts piercing the air!
His aura suddenly erupted, no longer the previous refined and restrained one, but a kind of magnificent and profound power like a prehistoric beast awakening!
His original height of over 1.8 meters was visibly increased and expanded under the influence of the cultivation technique!
Muscles bulged, bones cracked, and the pale golden lines on the skin shone brightly!
In the blink of an eye, his size reached about two meters!
Although it's not particularly exaggerated.
But his entire demeanor underwent a dramatic change.
Like a savage war god awakened, full of power!
The "Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Skill - New Edition" has finally broken through from the "proficient" level to the "master" level!
Xu Feng looked at the panel.
Name: Xu Feng
[Qi and Blood Value: 96124c]
【Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Skill - New Edition - Mastery (4/800)】
Feeling the unprecedentedly powerful force surging within him, a satisfied smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.
Swish!
Xu Feng moved with a roar and disappeared into the Valley of Chaotic Rocks.
A moment later, he returned carrying a huge mid-level lord-class black-scaled snake.
He then instructed Mori to begin slaughtering and cooking, while he closed his eyes to experience the changes he had just felt.
First and foremost is the foundational strength.
Even when the cultivation technique was not actively activated, his pure physical strength had increased from around 300 tons to 350 tons.
It's alright.
But when he activated the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique, his basic strength soared to approximately 500 tons!
Five hundred tons!
This is already at the top level of a high-ranking war god!
Moreover, the strength, resilience, and recovery ability of his skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs have all undergone a comprehensive and qualitative leap.
The total amount and purity of Qi and blood have also been greatly improved.
Like molten mercury, it flows through the blood vessels, making a sound like a surging river.
"Let's test the knife."
With a thought, Xu Feng's body returned to normal, and the Cloud-Cutting Blade appeared in his hand.
He didn't use any martial arts techniques or their true essence; it was just the simplest slashing.
With a flick of the wrist, the blade flashed.
"Sizzle—!"
The air was easily torn apart, producing a shrill sound like tearing cloth.
A pale white shockwave, visible to the naked eye and several meters long, formed in front of the blade!
With just the aftershock of a casual slash, a rock several meters high nearly sixty meters away was cleaved diagonally in half, leaving a smooth, mirror-like surface!
This is just a regular chop.
Immediately, his eyes narrowed, and he drew his Xunfeng Blade!
The blade light instantly transformed into a raging blue whirlwind, howling outwards!
This time, he infused it with a little bit of his vital energy.
boom!
Wherever the sword energy tornado passed, it carved a ditch half a meter deep and several meters wide, shrubs and rocks along the way were all pulverized!
The terrifying wind even caused trees hundreds of meters away to bend and sway!
"Under normal circumstances, the power of the Xunfeng Blade Technique can easily reach over 2000 tons."
Xu Feng sheathed his sword, realizing the truth in his heart.
"If unleashed at full power, combined with the true essence and momentum of the sword technique, reaching 3000 tons is not difficult!"
Three thousand tons of instantaneous explosive force!
This is a terrifying destructive power that only many high-level peak lords or even those who have just entered the limit lord realm can possess.
It is enough to directly confront and even crush most opponents of the same level!
Xu Feng currently only has 9 C health points, which is far from the upper limit of 16 C health points for a high-level War God!
However, his physical strength is already comparable to that of some high-level war gods with over 100,000 C-level health points!
In addition, there's his ghostly speed, formidable defense, unpredictable psychic powers, and throwing knives...
Xu Feng felt.
Even without using the power of the divine tree within his body, his overall combat strength has already firmly established him at the level of a supreme lord.
"Congratulations, Master, on mastering your divine skill!"
Morley was the first to react, bowing to offer his congratulations with a voice filled with heartfelt reverence.
She could clearly feel the oppressive aura emanating from her master that made her soul tremble slightly.
Isabella also came to her senses, her blue eyes filled with shock.
Although she was unable to accurately perceive Xu Feng's power data.
But the sheer power of that casual slash that split a boulder dozens of meters away, and the breathtaking, overwhelming aura it exuded.
All of this demonstrates that the savior's strength has made a terrifying leap!
Xu Feng slowly suppressed his aura, his body returned to normal, and the golden markings on his skin disappeared.
However, the profound sense of power hidden deep within his body could not be completely concealed.
He looked northwest, his eyes gleaming.
In the night sky, one could almost smell the scent of sulfur, hot blood, and wild fighting spirit emanating from that turbulent land.
"Rest for the night, and set off for Rage Rift tomorrow morning."
The resources in the Shiva region can indeed help people grow rapidly.
So, what kind of "surprise" will the Raging Rift bring him next?
He has high expectations for this.
