Chapter 458: Chapter 452.
Chapter 452.
But at such close range, that deep emotional connection couldn't be mistaken.
Zhu Zhuqing sensed something, yet she chose not to ask. She neither questioned nor probed further.
"Wang Feng, the Star Dou Great Forest has been unsettled lately. Be careful," Da Ming suddenly warned. "Those two soul beasts are so powerful that even we couldn't defeat them..."
Wang Feng paused for a moment before nodding.
However, a thought crossed his mind—could it be that an even more formidable soul beast had awakened in the Star Dou Great Forest?
One that had lived for more than a hundred thousand years?
His heart skipped a beat.
Probably not...
Shaking off the thought, Wang Feng activated the [Soul Devouring Blood Wing], teleporting directly back to the location of the Star Five-Headed Dragon.
The soul ring of the Star Five-Headed Dragon still lingered in the air.
Since Wang Feng had reacted swiftly and reached the scene in time, this journey hadn't taken long.
In fact, with the body and soul ring of a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast, Wang Feng estimated that it wouldn't disappear for at least a day.
"After all that effort, I can finally absorb it," Wang Feng sighed in relief.
Just then, a familiar voice echoed in his mind:
"Congratulations to the host for successfully checking in! You have obtained the second half of the 'Former Word Character Secret'—you can now –merge it into the complete technique! Additionally, you receive a bonus of 20,000 years, which you can add to soul ring of your choice."
"The next check-in location has been activated: Rakshasa Secret Realm. There are special rewards. If you choose to give it up, the next check-in location will be Sea God Island, with additional rewards."
The system's announcement made Wang Feng's heart race.
The next check-in location?
And he had the option to reject it?
Taking a deep breath, Wang Feng pondered over the meaning behind the Rakshasa Secret Realm.
It had to be related to Bibi Dong.
He realized something—this next check-in location had likely been triggered by his recent actions.
"If I hadn't fought using the Innate Five Treasure Flag and had instead revealed my identity… if I had joined forces with Da Ming and Er Ming to slay those two soul beasts along with the Soul Hall members… would this hidden check-in location have remained locked?"
The realization excited him.
It meant that his choice to keep his identity hidden and use the Innate Five Flag to facilitate the retreat of both groups had been the correct decision.
A carefully calculated move.
"I have to check in at the Rakshasa Secret Realm," Wang Feng thought.
But to do so, he needed to gain Bibi Dong's trust.
Simply allowing the Soul Hall members to retreat safely wouldn't be enough.
"A hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast..." Wang Feng took a deep breath.
"Unless... I capture one alive and bring it back to her."
That kind of feat wouldn't be easy—but if he could accomplish it, he might uncover Bibi Dong's greatest secret—the Rakshasa Secret Realm.
Was that the location of the Rakshasa God's inheritance?
Did that mean Bibi Dong was undergoing a divine trial?
No wonder she hadn't intervened personally in recent battles!
The system's hidden check-in prompt had provided Wang Feng with the path forward.
Unfortunately, the system didn't grant him insight into Bibi Dong's exact level of trust.
But that didn't matter—after all, this was a real world, and his opponents weren't mere NPCs.
"For now… I should focus on absorbing the Star Five-Headed Dragon first," Wang Feng decided.
A true hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast.–
Compared to the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale he had absorbed earlier, this was on a completely different level.
And in terms of bloodline, the Star Five-Headed Dragon was in no way inferior.
Wang Feng turned his palm, and the Innate Five Treasure Flag emerged, its green radiance flickering as he sat cross-legged on the ground.
Channeling his soul power, he guided the massive soul ring of the Star Five-Headed Dragon, allowing it to descend slowly.
"The complete 'Former Word Character Secret Technique' provides protection for spiritual cultivation, but fully comprehending it will take time. Right now, I've only gained a slight insight into its methods—its main function is strengthening the soul," Wang Feng thought to himself.
As his soul power continued guiding the process, the crimson soul ring finally landed on Wang Feng's body.
At that moment—
An overwhelming surge of soul power rushed into Wang Feng's body like a tidal wave crashing into the ocean!
His heart trembled.
As expected, absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring was an entirely different experience compared to a ninety-thousand-year old one.
Even though the system-enhanced hundred-thousand-year soul ring he had received before didn't carry any major side effects, this time was completely different.
This was a true hundred-thousand-year-old spirit ring—one he had absorbed through his own strength.
Fortunately, with Wang Feng's current physical endurance, he was still able to withstand the immense impact of its power.
"Such powerful consciousness!"
Wang Feng's thoughts shook as he suddenly sensed a lingering will within the spirit ring.
The residual consciousness of the Star Five-Headed Dragon still remained!
As the influx of soul power flooded his mind, the echoes of a furious, primal roar resounded within him.
How terrifying was the consciousness of a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast?
Even more so, the Star Five-Headed Dragon was known for its unparalleled spiritual power and possessed an Illusion Domain—a mental ability of extreme potency.
Naturally, the consciousness of this beast was also incredibly strong.
At the same time, Wang Feng began to sense the special abilities of the Star Five-Headed Dragon's five heads:
The first head, the strongest among them, could manifest an illusionary domain, wielding the most formidable mental power. It served as the mastermind of the dragon.
The second head had been severed by Wang Feng during battle. However, as he absorbed the soul ring, he discovered its ability—regeneration.
As long as this regenerative head remained intact, the other severed heads could rapidly regrow.
After realizing this, Wang Feng felt a sense of relief.
Fortunately, during the battle, the regenerative head had been completely severed within the Bipolar Static Domain. Otherwise, dealing with the Star Five-Headed Dragon would have been far more troublesome.
The third head, which Wang Feng had also severed, possessed the ability of control and mental manipulation.
It could extend its influence through its domain or directly affect enemies, forcing them into a state of spiritual shock and disorientation.
Since Wang Feng had destroyed the first three heads, the moment the Bipolar Static Domain vanished, the Star Five-Headed Dragon's illusionary domain collapsed along with it—causing a significant drop in power.
The fourth and fifth heads, however, were different.
These were the ones responsible for the terrifying long-range energy blasts.
Their abilities were similar, both specializing in immense destructive power. They could generate high-intensity energy waves, capable of obliterating everything in their path.
When combined, their attacks multiplied in strength, unleashing devastating destruction upon their target.
After analyzing the abilities of the Star Five-Headed Dragon's heads, Wang Feng understood why Er Ming had struggled against this beast.
Its strength was undeniable.
Each of its five heads had unique and terrifying powers.
With a focused thought, the six blood patterns on Wang Feng's body slowly surfaced.
A moment later, the Dark Angel Martial Soul manifested within his sea of consciousness.
Three brilliant spiritual droplets radiated a scorching light.
Murmuring the first word secret, Wang Feng activated his spiritual energy, causing the soul water beads to erupt into a blazing vortex, drawing in an immense surge of mental power.
The lingering consciousness of the Star Five-Headed Dragon was astonishingly strong.
However, in the presence of the Dark Angel Martial Soul, it shrank back, paralyzed with fear.
Eventually, it surrendered, dissolving into countless wisps of spiritual mist, which were then absorbed and purified by Wang Feng.
The spiritual energy contained within the Star Five-Headed Dragon's soul was exceptionally potent.
Even in death, its soul remained in the soul ring, acting as a reservoir of unparalleled spiritual power.
