Could it be that I am the cruel villain?

"What's going on?"

Scratched his head.

The action and demeanor were exactly the same as the previous habit, these small moves and habits can be said to be engraved in the human DNA; even the few girls in the Mountain Gate might not be able to recognize who exactly this is.

The same aura, the same smell, the same appearance, the same habits, everything was identical because this was not a so-called possession.

It was parasitism.

Yet, the innocent-looking boy suddenly in an instant turned ferocious, his left hand directly pinching into a sword gesture, Thunder Light swirling madly around his left arm, stabbing straight toward his own forehead!

"Old dog! I *#@ you *#@!"

Snap —

His right hand immediately grabbed it.

This scene was truly bizarre; now Jiang Feng seemed like he had schizophrenia, occasionally showing calmness, occasionally showing frenzy, sometimes emitting eerie laughter, but then suddenly cursing and swearing, looking like a typical image of a patient with split personality disorder.

The whole person seemed to be divided into two halves; the expression and demeanor were even more terrifying, with the right half of the face always carrying a peculiar and smug smile, relaxed and not panicked.

The left half of the face was full of resentment, eyes bulging with anger, containing death intent in the eyes, as if exerting every effort to endure something. If Jiang Feng went to perform in some comedies right now, it would probably have a great show effect, but unfortunately...

This is not a comedy.

Grabbing his own wrist, struggling forcefully, his movements were so mad that it seemed he didn't even consider himself a human, but about half a minute later, the ferocious left face calmed down, even the crazy movements gradually ceased.

"Hmph."

A cold snort.

"Good lad, there's some competence."

"This Core Formation Stage's Divine Soul is unexpectedly so solid; when the old man took over Xiao Xuan's body, it only took a few finger snaps, yet it took nearly half a cup of tea's time messing with this lad to barely control him."

"The people over there are probably arriving too..."

The signature smile appeared on his face.

But the smile quickly froze, with a slight thought; the boy's lips immediately turned pale, even his walking movement slightly trembled, looking extremely weak.

"Very good, indeed very good."

"That body was already useless, staying here just treated as being defeated by Jiang Feng... No."

"Defeated by me."

A confident smile emerged on his face, but soon it twitched a few times ferociously, then calmed down within a few seconds, its speed comparable to a chameleon changing colors.

"Yes, the Xuanyin Sect's conspiracy didn't succeed; it was I who thwarted Xuanyin Sect's major affair with my own strength. Xiao Xuan was a spy for Xuanyin Sect and was slain by me on the spot."

"In the battle, I narrowly escaped death, ultimately, I prevailed, collapsing with exhaustion, unconscious on the ground."

Bang!

His face turned pale, collapsing straight to the ground, as if thinking this position was not quite right, "Jiang Feng"

Only if looked closely, you'd find his movements seemed somewhat strange, laboriously crawling to the edge of the Blood Mist, shifting his bottom, looking like making a strenuous effort to crawl out from the Blood Mist, with extremely tenacious willpower struggling for survival.

Closing his eyes, appearing oblivious.

This was a crushing on the realm.

Fun fact.

Before Xuan Xiaozi's body was destroyed by Liu Jian, he had the cultivation at the peak of Body Integration Realm.

Infinitely close to Mahayana Realm cultivator, calling him a Demi Immortal wouldn't be excessive; it was just bad luck, doing too many bad things, caught consecutively by Liu Jian and his disciples, even if now mixed up so poorly, Jiang Feng was not someone he could contend with.

Even if only left with the Divine Soul, with his current strength killing a Divinity Transformation Stage wouldn't be difficult; even replacing another Core Formation Stage, half a cup of tea's time has already been tenaciously messed with ten times, it is just this lad has a sturdy Divine Soul able to hold on for this long.

"Very good, very good."

"Though somewhat uncontrollable, just pretend to be recuperating for this period, give the old man two days, this body shall be thoroughly under my control, no one would suspect this is swapping the prince with a raccoon cat."

"However before that, I do need to find a way to completely break through this lad's Divine Sense; now I only have its form, not its spirit, perhaps I could hide temporarily, but if time goes long, or facing Old Dog Gu, I fear I would be exposed."

"But well."

"Breaking Divine Sense and searching this lad's memory is indeed important, but the old man is most interested in..."

The shadow attached to Jiang Feng's Divine Soul gazed at a corner of the body.

It was an unassuming Dantian.

Black as ink, so black it seemed to absorb light, even a few more glances seemed to draw in one's soul, this scene made Xuan Xiaozi very curious, knowing Jiang Feng although top-tier talent and excellent physique, was still somewhat inferior to Liu Tangxi.

It was understandable to take him in his sect, but as an inheritor, he truly couldn't understand; ordinary people perhaps couldn't think of this layer, but who is he?

Former elder of Xuanyin Sect, master at Hehuan Peak, standing atop the food chain as a cultivator, with his knowledge and insight, it only takes a glance to determine, this boy definitely hides some secret.

"Looks like this is the secret Jiang Feng is hiding."

"This Dantian is quite strange, pitch-black, somewhat like a vortex, a few more glances seem to drag people in, if rashly going in fear it might..."

A momentary hesitation appeared on his expression, but only for a moment.

"Ridiculous."

"The old man has cultivated for a thousand years, what kind of demons and ghosts has he not seen, how could a Core Formation Stage lad make the old man cautious."

"Hmph, indeed living more and more backward..."

An anonymous individual, but because of courting death laying in bed for half a month before recovering, who is very adept at manipulating others' minds through musical instrument, and loves to hold a lute often, expressed great approval.

Swoosh!

The body entered the vortex.

No, it should be said entered the Dantian.

At the instant the Divine Soul entered, two pairs of eyes slowly opened in this world.

One originating from a dilapidated little hut inside the Dantian, the other from the lake bottom.

"Oh?"

A look of delight immediately appeared on his face.

Different from Xiao Xuan's image before, Xuan Xiaozi himself has the appearance of a young man, facial contours looking like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old lad, even younger than Xiao Xuan by more than ten years.

Constantly transforming blood, using others' souls for cultivation though vicious, was indeed the Longevity Technique, so this so-called "Longevity Technique" from a certain viewpoint truly had no problem.

"It truly is another Grotto Heaven."

"Ordinary cultivators' Dantian is merely palm-sized, even with inner sight, it's only a small space, his Dantian is somewhat interesting, so vast, surrounded by mountains and water, and even a lake... Eh?"

The lake surface showed a burst of bubbles.

Striding forward with interest, Xuan Xiaozi in his subconscious naturally wouldn't take the secret hidden in Jiang Feng's body seriously, after all, he once possessed overwhelming cultivation, with such vast knowledge; he truly didn't believe anyone could threaten him.

"A living creature?"

Squatting down, stretching a hand, but what surprised him was the scooped lake water was black as ink, in his hand it showed a sticky liquid state without dripping down, this immediately gave the well-informed him the realization of what it was.

"Spiritual Energy!?"

His expression suddenly turned ecstatic.

Looking at this vast pool, calling it a lake didn't convey its scale, hard to imagine inside Jiang Feng's body hides such a Grotto Heaven!

"Good, good, good! Indeed Spiritual Energy, the purity of this Spiritual Energy is rare in the world, the old man cultivated for thousands of years yet never possessed a pool, inside his body is actually a lake?"

"Hahahahahahaha, seems my decision was indeed correct, if it wasn't for the nephew giving the old man such a task, fear waiting another thousand years wouldn't obtain this opportunity..."

Immediately reaching out to scoop Spiritual Energy, savoring it carefully, just a mouthful seemed to burst his Soul Body, it's imaginable how frightening this Spiritual Energy Lake is.

Gurgle—

A few more bubbles emerged.

Finally, Xuan Xiaozi sensed an anomaly, his ecstatic heart slowly diluted, watching the rising bubbles underfoot, breaking, reforming, one after another, for a moment he suddenly felt somewhat dazed.

The entire lake surface boiled like cooked water, stupidly watching the lake water underfoot, Xuan Xiaozi suddenly thought of a very serious problem.

"The one who can control this Spiritual Energy Lake..."

"Who exactly is it?"
