Chapter 66

Death Sword Qi is a forbidden secret art; after condensing sword qi, the longer it is nurtured, the more terrifying it becomes once activated.

Qin Feng, although he has cultivated for only a short time, is still extremely terrifying.

Because his aperture is large enough, it is bigger than others' qi sea dantian.

Now it all pours out; although it does not tear the aperture, it also creates a shock. In an instant, Death Sword Qi envelops the high sky, forming a sword curtain that shoots entirely toward the Windstorm Eagle.

"This sword qi…"

The Windstorm Eagle's pupils contracted; dodging was already impossible.

It is fast, but the sword qi is faster.

"Death Spin!"

The Windstorm Eagle demon's wings twisted slightly; its whole body rapidly spun in midair, forming a sphere that could block attacks. Even if it couldn't block, it could deflect them—this is the defensive divine ability of its kind.

Unfortunately, it was torn apart by Death Sword Qi, which shredded its layered defenses, pierced its wings, and shot through its body.

Ah…

The Windstorm Eagle demon let out several shrill cries and turned into a mass of blood mist.

Completely torn apart by Death Sword Qi.

Almost no chunk of corpse remained.

All the mighty witnesses felt their hair stand on end, horrified.

That was a great demon.

A great demon capable of flight.

It was actually slaughtered? No corpse left? Even Flower Sea Crabapple and the Heartless Buddhist were shocked.

"Did you see that!" Huahaitang chuckled lightly, "He first killed Zhao Ganzi, then slaughtered the Seven Sword Followers, then beheaded the Sixth Under Heaven, and finally exterminated the Windstorm Eagle demon. If you had forcibly stopped him back then, what would your fate have been? Little monk, I did save your life."

"Amitabha!" Wuxin Fozu was speechless.

He still raised his head to look, but his pupils contracted.

Huahaitang also noticed the situation, drawing a sharp breath.

If one were to say who was most shocked, it would be Yan Hongye.

"How long has it been and he already succeeded in cultivation? My goodness, this is a pervert, a major pervert." Yan Hongye was thoroughly shocked, yet also laughed, "But I like it. The stronger, the better; in the future it will also be safer and more worry‑free."

"What is this…" Suddenly noticing Qin Feng's descent speed slowing, besides the wind aura spreading beneath him, another kind of Dao rhythm power also undulated.

It was filled with the sense of deathly stillness.

"Death Conception?" Yan Hongye trembled, "If he truly comprehended this Dao rhythm, combined with the forbidden secret art Death Sword Qi, plus his abnormal recovery ability, then…"

She suddenly felt a tingling on her scalp.

Qin Feng indeed comprehended it.

In the instant of blasting the Windstorm Eagle demon, beneath the gorgeous Death Sword Qi, he sensed the rhythm of death and vaguely grasped its essence.

He comprehended Death Conception.

Lying flat, gazing at the sky, watching the specks of blood, he also slowly descended.

Finally his body twitched slightly, and his feet touched the ground.

"Death Conception, achieved!" Qin Feng couldn't help but feel happy.

"Congratulations, Brother Qin, having slain strong foes; from today onward, this world will be stirred because of you." Huahaitang arrived first, clasped his hands, "I never imagined you could become this strong; truly extraordinary."

"Still far from a Martial Saint; what's that called strong?" Qin Feng replied.

Huahaitang was speechless.

Wuxin Fozu also arrived here: "Qin benefactor, how will you treat the Myriad Beast City?"

Qin Feng grinned: "This is purgatory; of course we will destroy it!"

"This place holds myriad beings!" Wuxin Fozu urged.

"Do you know they drink human blood, eat human flesh, and each day who knows how many outsiders they abduct here to torture and kill?" Qin Feng glanced indifferently at the other party, then turned to Huahaitang, "Can you assist?"

"Hahaha..." Huahaitang couldn't help laughing, "This is great merit; of course I'm willing! By performing this deed today, my mind will surely penetrate, and my future cultivation will undoubtedly be unobstructed, straight to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. Brother Qin, thank you."

"Brother Qin!" Yan Hongye leapt over, "I have already ordered the blockade of all roads leading outside."

"Good!" Qin Feng said, "I will first go blast the master-level strong ones; the rest I leave to you, how about that?"

"Of course!" Yan Hongye smiled happily, "Besides the people we brought secretly, we also have many hidden hands in the city; if the masters don't come out, it's enough!"

Qin Feng nodded, then leapt up, employing the Carefree Wind‑Stepping Technique; truly like riding the wind, he reached a distant place in the blink of an eye, raising his hand to unleash the Triple‑Phase Sword Finger.

Ordinary master-level strong ones cannot block his sword‑finger attack.

According to his sense, his figure flickered continuously; occasionally he raised a hand and slapped, condensing a hand ten zhang in size that smashed a region into a deep pit.

Or else, a midair punch would blast a stationed place into an abyss.

Those places were where strong ones gathered.

There were also many eighth‑ and ninth‑rank experts, and they were all dealt with together.

In just a moment's effort, Qin Feng arrived at the Heavenly Gate's encampment. Here it was pitted and hollowed, and many had fled.

Yet he blocked a few people.

These few were all ninth‑rank experts, each carrying a bulging sack, full of surprise and panic; upon seeing Qin Feng appear before them, their faces all turned ashen.

"Give me the stuff, and let us off with our lives—how about that?" The leading man's cold sweat poured down.

"You guys are clever, having emptied Heavenly Gate's wealth; if you could escape and hide for a few years, you could indeed grow, but unfortunately you ran into me!" Qin Feng said, raising his hand to unleash streams of sword qi that all pierced their brows.

The packets fell, scattering silver notes and precious grand medicines across the ground.

Qin Feng paid no heed.

He straightaway headed for the depths of Heavenly Gate, arrived before the study, saw the open secret chamber door and entered, went to the eastern wall, punched through, revealing an even deeper hidden secret chamber.

A strange aura also welled up toward him.

"Poison!" Qin Feng frowned, took a slight sniff and quickly retreated; before the poison could take effect, his powerful life force swiftly purified it, and at the same time the Supreme Yang Heart Flame flowed in, burning it to nothing.

"Does this count as being immune to all poisons?" Qin Feng showed a strange expression and walked in.

In the secret chamber within the secret chamber, there weren't many things.

There was only a bookshelf, on which three boxes were placed, and there were also several long boxes.

The first was a sandalwood box; opening it revealed several volumes.

"Dragon Chant Soul Extermination!" Qin Feng picked up a volume, opened it, and couldn't help becoming interested. This is a secret technique that the Sixth Under Heaven has performed; it is extremely powerful.

It's a shame he ran into this cheat; it had no effect.

"Using the lung orifice as the root, true qi as the guide, merging with the power of one's heart and mind will, a single roar like a dragon's chant buries the body and exterminates the soul."

Qin Feng looked at it and couldn't help nodding.

This is a terrifying secret technique; especially when used unexpectedly, it can heavily wound opponents of the same level, and even shake their hearts and minds, destroying their will, making it extremely terrifying.

"With my true qi and my soul power, if I cultivate this method, could I kill the Fierce Wind Hawk Demon with a single roar?" Qin Feng turned the thought over in his mind and committed the technique's content to memory.

When I have time later, I will definitely cultivate it.

He picked up the second volume, titled Sword Explosion.

It is also a secret technique that the Sixth Under Heaven performed, which wounded him.

"This combines the power of phenomenal heavenly might, erupting into a terrifying force that can be called a forbidden ultimate art; unfortunately, it cannot be cultivated without reaching the Celestial Phenomenon Realm." Qin Feng looked at it and also marveled at the creator of this technique, who is truly astonishingly talented.

He also committed the content to memory.

Moreover, there is the Sixth Under Heaven's primary cultivation method, which contains one hundred and eighty apertures; this made him very happy.

"Combining the two, after removing overlaps, I could likely master the number of apertures up to two hundred forty-five." Qin Feng was extremely delighted, "Also, by using this method, after opening and then destroying them, we can create a resonant force to seek other unknown apertures, striving to fully open all three hundred sixty-five apertures."

He had already conceived the idea, but had never put it into practice.

Moreover, there are several other secret techniques, all very powerful.

After flipping through them once, he put them inside.

No rush.

The second is a jade box; not small, it is carved from a huge piece of jade. Opening it reveals small jade vials containing medicinal pills.

"Great Treasure Origin Pill, Flesh-Growing Heaven-Supplement Pill, Hundred Flowers Detox Pill!"

There are only three kinds of pills, yet they greatly surprised him.

The Great Treasure Origin Pill is an advanced form of the Treasure Origin Pill; according to Yan Hongye, a single one is worth ten Treasure Origin Pills, and she could not gather them even in a short time.

Inside were exactly three of them.

The other two are one for healing wounds and one for detoxifying, but Qin Feng didn't care.

Qin Feng then opened the third large box.

"Surely it's this thing!" He couldn't help laughing.

Upon arriving here, he sensed the fluctuation of spiritual medicines, as well as the explosive power hidden within spirit crystals.

Sure enough, this box is filled entirely with spirit crystals.

Exactly five pieces.

"I never expected the Sixth Under Heaven to have this much!"

The rest doesn't matter; this thing is truly his treasure.

Immediately he took out a small box to put inside, preparing to place it in his bosom, but his heart stirred; the box vanished and appeared within the Supreme Yang Cauldron in his dantian.

It was not burned.

Nor was it destroyed.

"Done!"

Qin Feng was overjoyed.
