Chapter 539 Shock and Admiration. Zhu Zhuqing's Night Visit.
"A 50% overall increase, plus the annihilation effect... this sixth soul skill is nothing short of a divine skill!"
Dai Chengfeng was thrilled; all the risks he had taken before seemed worthwhile at this moment.
With a thought, a pair of enormous wings unfolded behind him.
These wings were no longer in the form of condensed energy, but had become solid bone wings, covered with jet-black feathers, with edges shimmering with a ghostly blue luster, exuding an aura of the same origin as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger—External Soul Bone, Evil God Wings!
After absorbing the spirit ring, the wings completely merged with it, completing their evolution, and their speed and flight ability will surely reach a new level.
After retracting his Evil God Wings, Dai Chengfeng stood up. Although his internal injuries had not fully healed and his mental energy had been greatly depleted, his soul power was abundant, and his aura was even stronger than before.
As the Wings of the Evil God disappeared, the Arena of Life and Death slowly crumbled.
In the middle of the Starry Sky Forest, in front of a small stream.
Zhu Zhuqing, Hu Liena, and Ning Rongrong were all restless, their beautiful eyes filled with worry, constantly glancing in the direction where Dai Chengfeng had disappeared.
But soon, when that familiar figure appeared in sight, though his clothes were somewhat torn and there was still bloodstain at the corner of his mouth, his steps were still steady.
The three women breathed a sigh of relief almost simultaneously, and then rushed over without hesitation.
"Dai Chengfeng!" *3
The voices of the three women rang out simultaneously.
Zhu Zhuqing was the fastest and was the first to rush to Dai Chengfeng.
Seeing his pale face and the bloodstains on his clothes, her eyes instantly reddened. She wanted to reach out and touch him but hesitated, her voice choked with sobs:
"Are you... are you alright? Are you badly hurt?"
Hu Liena followed closely behind, her charming face filled with heartache and anxiety. She immediately took out the healing pills she carried with her.
"Quick, take your medicine first."
Ning Rongrong also ran forward, holding the Nine-Treasure Glazed Pagoda in her hands, its soft, colorful light enveloping Dai Chengfeng.
Although her soul power is not as effective as that of a dedicated healing-type soul master in treating internal injuries, it can still play a certain role in soothing and nourishing.
Looking at the three beautiful faces filled with worry before him, Dai Chengfeng felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He smiled and comforted them:
"Don't worry, it's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
"That guy was tough to deal with, but I still won in the end."
At this moment, the high priest, who was not far away, also came over. She looked at Dai Chengfeng with an incredulous look of shock in her eyes.
She had clearly felt the terror of that Dark Demon Tiger, its chilling evil and power leaving her with no confidence in defeating it, and perhaps even struggling to protect herself.
But Dai Chengfeng, a Soul Emperor who had just reached level 60, actually killed him?
"You...you really killed that Dark Demon God Tiger?"
Dai Chengfeng nodded and said casually, "It was just luck. It underestimated me and I found an opportunity."
Only then did Zhu Zhuqing and the other two women realize, after being overjoyed by Dai Chengfeng's safe return, what an amazing feat he had accomplished.
Slaying a top-tier soul beast that is at least 60,000 years old and possesses extremely evil attributes? That's simply unbelievable!
"My God, Dai Chengfeng, you're amazing!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed, covering her mouth in amazement.
Hu Liena's beautiful eyes sparkled, and her gaze towards Dai Chengfeng held not only love but also a touch of admiration.
Although Zhu Zhuqing didn't speak, the way she gripped Dai Chengfeng's arm tightly showed her excitement and lingering fear.
Dai Chengfeng recalled the extremely dangerous battle just now, especially the moment when he used the Divine Extreme Kill to break through the evil god's protection. He still felt lingering fear.
That was a gamble with everything; if things had gone wrong even slightly, he himself would probably be the one killed as a cub now.
However, the final result was good; the huge risk brought huge rewards.
The high priest took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart. He glanced at Dai Chengfeng's undeniably pale face and spoke:
"Chengfeng's injury is quite serious and he needs time to recover."
“This is already in the central region of the Star Dou Great Forest, and the environment is relatively complex. However, we have ventured deep into the heart of the forest, and we should be able to find a suitable soul beast for Nana nearby.” “Why don’t we set up camp here and wait for Chengfeng’s injuries to stabilize before continuing to search for a suitable soul ring for Nana?”
"it is good!"
The proposal was unanimously agreed upon by the three women.
The group immediately set to work, setting up a temporary camp in a relatively flat clearing in the woods near the water source.
As night fell, a campfire was lit, dispelling the chill and some of the darkness in the forest.
During dinner, Dai Chengfeng became the absolute focus of protection.
"Dai Chengfeng, you're injured. Eat more of this red meat to replenish your qi and blood."
Ning Rongrong picked up a large piece of roasted, fragrant soul beast meat and placed it in Dai Chengfeng's bowl.
"Chengfeng, drink some of this Ganoderma lucidum soup. I specially made it; it's good for restoring your soul power and mental strength."
Hu Liena ladled out a bowl of fragrant, thick soup and handed it to Dai Chengfeng, her beautiful eyes filled with anticipation.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't say much. She simply pushed the deboned, tender fish meat to Dai Chengfeng's side, then picked up a fruit, carefully peeled it, and placed it on a plate.
Looking at the bowls that had instantly piled up into a small mountain in front of him, and then at the three pairs of beautiful eyes filled with affection and concern, Dai Chengfeng felt both warmth and helplessness.
This isn't eating; it's a sweet burden.
"Okay, okay, I'll eat it, I'll eat it..."
Dai Chengfeng was both amused and exasperated, and could only grit his teeth and, under the "supervision" of the three women, try his best to finish the food in front of him.
After the meal, he felt that his stomach had endured more pressure than the attack of the Dark Demon God Tiger. He was so full that he could hardly walk.
Seeing Dai Chengfeng's somewhat disheveled appearance, the three women couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle, and the atmosphere in the camp finally became relaxed and warm.
After the meal, Dai Chengfeng, due to his injuries and exhaustion, went to his tent to rest early.
He sat cross-legged on the cushion, slowly circulating his innate energy to regulate his internal energy.
After an unknown amount of time, the tent flap was gently lifted a crack, and a slender figure slipped in silently.
Dai Chengfeng opened his eyes alertly and, by the faint moonlight filtering through the gaps in the tent, recognized the visitor as Zhu Zhuqing.
"Zhu Qing? What brings you here?" Dai Chengfeng asked, somewhat surprised.
"Could it be..."
Seeing Dai Chengfeng's expression, Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed slightly, appearing even more charming in the moonlight. She lowered her head shyly, her voice barely audible:
"You...you mustn't misunderstand."
"I was worried because you were badly injured and I was afraid you might mess up your cultivation at night, or that some unruly soul beast might bother you..."
"I'll stay right here and watch over you. Just focus on healing."
Seeing her shy expression, where she clearly cared but insisted on making excuses, Dai Chengfeng felt a surge of tenderness in his heart.
He reached out and gently pulled her to sit down beside him, smiling:
"My little wife knows how to care for people."
