Chapter 1836 - 1837: Immortal Soul
"Divine Artifact?"
Ling Feng’s pupils suddenly contracted. He never expected that the so-called Five Emperors Inheritance would turn out to be a Divine Artifact.
"But don’t get too excited just yet."
Despicable Donkey sneered, "Judging from the completeness of this world, it can at most be considered a fictional Soul World, far from the level of creating a world. Even if it’s a Divine Artifact, it’s probably a sealed one."
With that, Despicable Donkey lifted a hoof to take a look, then exclaimed in shock, "What’s going on? Why has this Divine Beast shrunk?"
"Haha!"
Ling Feng stepped forward and pinched Despicable Donkey’s ear, grinning widely, "Despicable Donkey, who would’ve thought your juvenile form would be so cute!"
"Get lost, you’re the cute one, your whole family is cute!"
Despicable Donkey glared at Ling Feng and snorted coldly. After brooding for a moment, it had no choice but to accept reality.
"By the way, I seem to sense an information about Level 38, what does that mean?"
Despicable Donkey asked with a puzzled look.
"Me too."
Zi Feng said with a bitter face, "I was already in human form, and now I’ve turned into an insect, with a bunch of things called attribute points? What are they for?"
"These are the rules of this world," Ling Feng chuckled, beginning to teach them how to allocate attribute points.
Despicable Donkey, of course, focused all on the Speed Attribute, while Zi Feng, being an Elemental Life, Ling Feng advised him to pour all attribute points into the soul.
"So, Ling Feng, what do we do next? We’re not going to be stuck in this godforsaken place forever, are we?"
Despicable Donkey couldn’t bear to appear in front of Ling Feng in his juvenile form, feeling very uncomfortable as if his loincloth had been pulled off.
"According to the Yellow Emperor’s words, right now we need to level up to max. Meanwhile, I need to find Senior Sister Yuee."
Ling Feng touched his nose and said lightly, "There are about twenty days left. If we’re not at max level by then, we might all die at the hands of the Yellow Emperor."
"Damn! I told you not to go to the Five Emperors Treasure Vault, but you wouldn’t listen. Now look, we’re stuck in this hellhole. I don’t fancy dying young!"
Despicable Donkey lamented miserably.
Ling Feng’s forehead darkened, and he almost wanted to kick it. He gave it a hard look of disdain, "When dividing treasures in the Five Emperors Treasure Vault, you didn’t say that! Moreover, you’re an old monster nearly a few thousand years old talking about dying young?"
Despicable Donkey snorted and turned its head away, grumbling to itself in the corner.
Ling Feng decided to ignore this guy, taking Zi Feng, and left on his own.
Despicable Donkey immediately became submissive, realizing that he had no power or trump cards, and if Ling Feng "abandoned" him here, he would surely die.
...
With the addition of Zi Feng and Despicable Donkey, although monster hunting efficiency didn’t significantly improve, at least Ling Feng wasn’t as lonely. After slaughtering monsters for an entire night, Ling Feng leveled up twice to reach Level 40, and Despicable Donkey even obtained a skill called "Treasure Hunting Eyes."
Soon, after clearing out nearly all the zombies in the area, Ling Feng reluctantly moved deeper into the graveyard.
These humanoid monsters not only provided high experience but also dropped a lot of Gold Coins.
Although Ling Feng didn’t need the Gold Coins to buy things, they could be used to purchase attribute points, which made him even fonder of these zombie monsters.
After moving forward for about an hour, Ling Feng suddenly felt as if something was gradually decreasing around him. He quickly signaled Despicable Donkey to stop, cautiously watching ahead.
"What’s wrong?"
Despicable Donkey glanced around slyly, even in the Emperor Yan World, his thieving instinct was undying; his eyes would turn green at the sight of a treasure.
"Something’s off," Ling Feng frowned, "There’s a very strong presence here, prepare for battle!"
Despicable Donkey cursed lowly. Normally, he would retreat into the Five Elements Heavenly Palace at a time like this.
But now, he had to bite the bullet and face it.
"Roar!"
A terrifying roar resounded, and Ling Feng looked closely, his eyelids twitching slightly.
Soon, a set of information appeared before Ling Feng’s eyes.
Corpse King: Immortal Soul, Lord-level monster.
Level: 55.
Skills: Death Roar, Nether Soul Burst, Summoning of the Dead Soul.
Description: Released by the suppressed Destructive Demon Dragon, a sliver of demonized light transformed the corpse of a slumbering, powerful entity from millennia into an Immortal Soul, possessing suffocatingly terrifying Poison Liquid.
"Damn, a Lord-level monster, what the heck?"
Despicable Donkey was trembling in fear from the powerful aura emanating from the Corpse King; he was just a juvenile Little Black Donkey!
Zi Feng frowned and said, "If this were the outside world, I would just parasitically attach to it and control it."
Ling Feng shook his head with a chuckle, in the outside world, he could settle it with a single sword stroke, but in this world, it was fundamentally built from data, judging by the Immortal Soul’s attributes, this battle would be quite strenuous.
Nonetheless, fortune favors the bold. Given his current luck, maybe defeating this Lord-level monster would drop one of the Emperor Seals.
Since I can’t die, testing the waters first wouldn’t hurt.
"Zi Feng, Despicable Donkey, you stay here. I’ll go deal with this Corpse King!"
Without Chaotic Power, Ling Feng couldn’t risk them, so he had to fight solo.
Just then, Ling Feng suddenly heard footsteps approaching from afar.
Quickly, Ling Feng hid in the shadows, and before long, a team of five entered the area.
The leader of the team was none other than Blood Shadow Alliance’s Xue Ren!
Following him were three men in black robes whose faces were unclear, likely Blood Shadow Alliance’s Blood Letter Killers, and another was a Green Robed Swordsman whom Ling Feng didn’t recognize, but anyone mingling with someone as powerful as Xue Ren likely wasn’t weak.
Similar to Duan Tianya, their levels were around Level 50, having successfully transitioned and acquired a skill system unique to Emperor Yan World.
"Sword Wuji, are you sure you saw a Level 55 Lord-level monster here?"
Xue Ren gazed at the Green Robed Swordsman and asked calmly.
"Indeed."
Sword Wuji nodded, "I received a quest to hunt an Immortal Soul, and the quest reward is a clue to one of the five Emperor Seals. I think Brother Xue Ren might be interested."
"Excellent!"
Xue Ren’s eyes lit up; ever since reaching Level 50, leveling up was like crawling at a snail’s pace. Xue Ren gradually realized that it was nearly impossible to level up to 100 within thirty days.
To earn the right to survive, he had to rely on those five Emperor Seals.
"Better hurry; we can’t let Zhou Xuantong and those two guys from the Demon Clan get ahead." Xue Ren’s face turned grave, "Only I, Xue Ren, deserve the Five Emperors Inheritance!"
The group quickened their pace and, as expected, saw the roaring Corpse King, the Immortal Soul, in a vast open area ahead.
