The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 555: Purple Lightning True Qi!

"Prince Long Fei, please wait a moment. I'll go get my father."

Xiaomeng bit her lip and rushed out of the cave. These past few days, the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao clan had been busy rebuilding their home, so everyone was incredibly occupied.

As for the Minotaur Clan, it was as if they had evaporated from Heavenly Demon City; there had been no news of them since. Perhaps they were truly frightened by the demonic jiao ancestor.

"Master, you're finally awake!"

A flash of purple light appeared as Zifeng, that little fellow, flew out from Ling Feng's body and landed on his shoulder with a concerned look. "I thought you'd exhausted all your energy and died this time!"

"What do you mean?" Ling Feng looked down at Zifeng, puzzled.

"The thing you obtained in the Ancient Cave of Time, while it can awaken the potential of your bloodline, also places an enormous burden on you. Do you realize that if I didn't share vitality with you, just the few moves you performed with the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art during your transformation would have drained you of all your life force?"

Zifeng complained, "I just finished devouring the life essence of those demon lord-level minotaurs, and now it's all gone. I'm at a loss here!"

Ling Feng's eyes twitched as he finally understood. The Chaotic Rebirth could indeed grant immense power, but it came at the cost of massive life force.

Luckily, Ling Feng had Zifeng as his pet; otherwise, in that form, he wouldn't have been able to sustain the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art for long.

This also explained why the demonic jiao ancestor, Kong, showed a hint of surprise when he saw Ling Feng nearly match Niu Bi in battle.

In reality, with Ling Feng's level of cultivation, merely maintaining the form of the Chaotic Giant Beast was already extraordinary.

"Zifeng, I really owe you this time," Ling Feng said with a smile. However, considering the seal in his dantian, he realized that he probably wouldn't be able to use that terrifying Chaotic Rebirth again for a long while.

"Hehe, as long as you know."

Zifeng pouted, and a purple light emanated from him and merged into Ling Feng's body, instantly wiping away the weakness Ling Feng felt inside.

This was the effect of life force infusion, which was more effective than any spirit pills or miraculous medicine.

"Thanks a lot!"

Ling Feng flexed his arms, and the pallor of his face quickly gave way to a healthy flush. With Zifeng's life-sharing ability, as long as Zifeng was alive, Ling Feng was nearly immortal.

"Someone's coming!"

Zifeng's figure melded back into Ling Feng's body. As footsteps echoed outside the cave, Jin Zhulong entered, accompanied by a few clan elders, Jin Jiao, and Xiaomeng.

Seeing that Ling Feng had woken up, Jin Zhulong's excitement was almost palpable.

"Prince Long Fei, you're finally awake," Jin Zhulong said, his joy evident.

It wasn't just Jin Zhulong; the clan elders of the Three-Headed Demonic Jiao clan also expressed their sincere concern, each one warmly inquiring about his well-being.

If, before, they had submitted to this Prince Long Fei merely because of his status, now they truly admired and respected him with a hint of reverence.

After all, the Chaotic Bloodline only appeared once in ten thousand years!

If Ling Feng were to continue on this path, becoming a demon emperor or even a demon ruler would be within reach.

Of course, he could never truly become a demon ruler because Ling Feng wasn't even part of the demon race!

Jin Jiao also knelt before Ling Feng while expressing his gratitude. "Prince Long Fei, it's all thanks to you that our Three-Headed Demonic Jiao clan was spared from annihilation. From now on, I, Jin Jiao, pledge to serve as your loyal follower for the rest of my life!"

"Please, stand up. There's no need for this," Ling Feng said as he helped Jin Jiao to his feet. He continued calmly, "The reason the Minotaur Clan targeted you all was because of me. I should be the one apologizing to everyone."

"Prince Long Fei, your kindness truly embodies the grace of an emperor!"

"Indeed, from now on, anyone who dares to doubt Prince Long Fei will have to answer to me!"

"If Prince Long Fei were to become the king of the main branch of the Demonic Jiao clan, it would be a great blessing for us in the sub-branches!"

After a round of flattery and expressions of concern, Ling Feng finally got to the point and asked, "Chief Jin Zhulong, I would like to know more about the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony. After all, there's not much time left."

Jin Zhulong nodded and explained, "There aren't many rules for the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony. Once we enter the outer area of the sacred land, there will be a competition among the geniuses of various clans. Only the top five demon race geniuses will have the opportunity to enter the sacred land and receive the blessing of the Ancestral Soul's Light."

"A competition? And entry to the sacred land?" Ling Feng's eyes widened in surprise, feeling a surge of excitement.

"Yes, the Ancestral Soul Awakening is the highest honor for our demon race, and only the most talented of geniuses are qualified. The Ancestral Soul's Light only shines within the sacred land, so naturally, one must enter the sacred land to receive it."

Jin Zhulong grinned, revealing his sharp teeth. "With your strength, entering the top five should be no problem at all!"

"Interesting!" Ling Feng touched his nose. This was definitely an opportunity tailored for him. Missing out on it would be an absolute waste.

"Oh, and Prince Long Fei, it seems that this time the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony will be presided over by the Qiongqi Demon Emperor. Given your relationship with the Qiongqi Demon Emperor, if you could say a few kind words on our behalf, it might elevate the status of our Three-Headed Demonic Jiao clan in Heavenly Demon City."

"No problem, no problem!"

Ling Feng touched his nose again and thought to himself, This old fellow probably realized that my visit to the Heavenly Demon City wasn’t just to convey some message from the main branch, but to get a spot in the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony.

Although he saw through me, he’s not doing much to take advantage of me, but is rather using it to improve his clan’s status.. What an interesting fellow.

Jin Zhulong didn’t linger for long after Ling Feng woke up, instead allowing him to rest. Soon after, everyone else left as well. With Zifeng's help, Ling Feng had already regained all his strength. Although not at his peak, he would be fully recovered in two days.

"Two days until the Ancestral Soul Awakening Ceremony!"

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes as he suddenly remembered something. He took out the Thunder Spirit Crystal that Jin Zhulong had given him from his storage spirit ring.

With everything that had happened recently, he hadn’t had a chance to refine this valuable item. Now was the perfect time to do so. After all, being in the demon race's territory, any increase in strength would mean a better chance of survival.

Ling Feng sat cross-legged and began to skillfully refine the spiritual essence within the Thunder Spirit Crystal, merging it with his own true qi.

The thunder attribute was more violent and harder to control than the fire attribute, but thanks to his previous experiences with spirit infusions, he quickly managed to completely refine the Thunder Spirit Crystal.

Within Ling Feng's dantian Qihai acupoint, a new attribute of true qi emerged—Purple Lightning true qi!
