Chapter 270 Troublesome Divine Power
“Aaah!”
After Zhou Feng forcefully killed Bai Wuyi, the intense pain assaulting his body caused him to moan involuntarily.
It was too painful!
This pain was like someone continuously sprinkling salt on his wound.
Moreover, his passive Self-Healing Constitution was ineffective.
He could feel that his passive skill had been trying to heal that huge wound, but a sort of power was always stopping it.
However, now was not the time to be distracted.
After forcefully killing Bai Wuyi, Zhou Feng immediately fled.
“Give chase!”
“Don’t let him escape! Hurry up and chase!”
The others couldn’t care less about what had happened to Bai Wuyi.
They immediately chased after Zhou Feng.
Fortunately, none of these people were Divine Ability experts.
Presumably, it was because Divine Ability experts disdained to deal with a Purple Mansion expert.
After all, the top priority for Divine Ability experts was comprehending their divine abilities.
Also, the impression many people in Heavenly Star City had of Zhou Feng was still stuck in the past.
These people might not know just how terrifying Zhou Feng’s growth rate was.
In the eyes of many people, sending out a bunch of Purple Mansion cultivators to capture Zhou Feng would be a piece of cake.
Actually, it wasn’t their fault for thinking this way. The main reason was that the path of cultivation couldn’t be accomplished overnight.
Especially after reaching the Purple Mansion realm, one’s strength couldn’t be increased just like that.
Sometimes, a few months would only be enough to accumulate some Spiritual Qi and learn some techniques. It wouldn’t be able to increase one’s strength at all.
It was precisely because of this miscalculation, coupled with Zhou Feng’s home-ground advantage in the wild due to passive Natural Affinity that Zhou Feng was able to get rid of these people swiftly. If one didn’t have special tracking abilities, it would be near impossible to find any traces of Zhou Feng, who had perfectly blended with his surroundings.
‘I finally escaped!’
Zhou Feng’s face was pale, and his body was unprecedentedly weak.
He was currently in a cave, and no one should be able to find him in a short period.
After getting rid of those annoying flies, he immediately began to check his injuries.
His injuries were appalling-a large chunk of flesh and blood was gone from the left side, and even his bones and internal organs were exposed outside.
An ordinary cultivator would probably have died on the spot if they had sustained such a terrifying injury.
Nonetheless, Zhou Feng had a powerful physique while his recovery ability was top-notch.
In addition, his boundless Blood Qi had formed a thin membrane that protected his wound, so he was temporarily fine.
Zhou Feng frowned as he waited for his passive Tenacious Heart to be triggered.
Soon, the passive skill was triggered, consuming a large amount of Blood Qi was consumed and healing his wounds.
However, the most serious wounds did not recover as Zhou Feng had expected.
A gray substance kept preventing the wounds from recovering.
“What kind of power is this?”
Zhou Feng’s frown deepened.
He had never thought that his passive Tenacious Heart would be useless one day.
The power ravaging his body was like gangrene that couldn’t be eradicated.
“Could this be the effect of a Divine Ability technique?
‘As expected. The higher the opponent’s cultivation, the more some of my passive skills will lose some of their effectiveness…’
Zhou Feng pondered for a moment before taking a piece of cloth out of his storage ring and bandaging the wound.
After all, letting the wound remain exposed in the air was not a solution.
‘This… Why are they so fast this time!?’
Zhou Feng was in the midst of thinking about what to do next when he sensed a few people searching for him.
Zhou Feng had just sat down not long ago.
How could they find him so quickly?
Why?
Logically speaking, it would take at least half a day for those people to find him.
However, the current situation did not allow him to think too much.
“This kid is nearby!”
“Remember to capture him alive! This kid has obtained the Human Emperor’s secret treasure and has many secrets.”
“Got it! Surround this area. We can’t let this big fish escape.”
“Don’t worry! Bai Wuyi’s Dao Protector seriously injured this kid, and his divine power must have entered his wound. He won’t be able to run far.”
‘Divine power?’
Zhou Feng vaguely heard what these people said.
He finally understood what that mysterious substance preventing his wound from healing was.
As the footsteps got closer and closer, Zhou Feng knew that he had to move. He couldn’t let these people know that he was hiding here.
‘No! I don’t need to run!’
Zhou Feng thought about it.
If he kept being chased like this, he would be on the passive side, always running for his life.
This was very disadvantageous to him. He would have no time to rest or recover from his injuries.
If this dragged on, his situation would get worse.
Bai Wuyi had shouted that Zhou Feng had obtained the Human Emperor’s secret treasure before his death. This would definitely attract the covetous eyes of many people.
However, in reality, Zhou Feng had not obtained the Human Emperor’s secret treasure yet. His current achievements and the feat of killing Bai Wuyi were all the result of his passive skills.
Zhou Feng absolutely could not allow anyone to find out about his skill panel.
If he wanted to get out of this predicament, there was only one way-slaughter anyone that coveted his secrets.
He would keep killing until the Divine Ability expert made their move.
‘Perhaps I can make use of this opportunity to fake my death?’
It was very likely that a Divine Ability expert would be drawn out in such a situation.
He was definitely not a Divine Ability expert’s opponent right now.
Should he make use of this opportunity to waste a chance at rebirth and fake his death?
At that time, everything in Heavenly Star City would have nothing to do with him.
Zhou Feng could use his new identity to slowly develop and come back for revenge when the time was right.
This could be a way out.
‘Eh? This is…!
Just as he was considering whether to fake his death, the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth was triggered.
The light and agile Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi began to cleanse his entire body slowly.
More than half of the divine power in the wound was purified!
The passive Purification of Heaven and Earth could actually purify divine power!?’ Zhou Feng recalled the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth’s description.
Purification of Heaven and Earth: Every other day, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi will help you purify a negative state on your body..
‘Could it be that divine power is also considered a negative state?’
If it were, his injury would recover completely in less than two days!
“If that’s the case, then things will be different!”
Zhou Feng’s eyes suddenly flashed with a trace of madness.
While Zhou Feng was thinking about what he should do in the future…
The Bai Clan had gone mad!
Their direct descendant and his Dao Protector had died.
This was the first direct descendant of a large clan to die in the hands of a vagabond cultivator in several hundred years.
While everyone marveled at Zhou Feng’s strength, they also wondered if the Bai Clan had declined.
Why couldn’t they defeat a vagabond cultivator? Why had the Dao Protector failed to protect his master?
And then, the news that Zhou Feng had the Human Emperor’s secret treasure spread throughout Heavenly Star City.
This time, it was the turn of the entire Heavenly Star City to go crazy.
The Human Emperor’s secret treasure? Zhou Feng actually had the Human Emperor’s secret treasure on him?
It was definitely because of this treasure that Zhou Feng’s cultivation had increased so quickly, to the point he was able to kill Bai Wuyi.
