I Cultivate Passively

This was the first time Zhou Feng had fully circulated his Spiritual Qi after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm.

He felt that his control over his Spiritual Qi had increased a lot with the divine soul’s assistance.

This feeling was especially obvious when he used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art.

The tentacles formed from Spiritual Qi crazily scratched the Purple Jade Bell outside of Han Qi’s body.

Each attack could penetrate a small part of his protective Spiritual Qi and attack Han Qi’s body.

Although the armor-piercing attacks were very weak, Han Qi could not withstand the continuous attacks for a long time.

“Innate DIVINE ability? You actually have an innate DIVINE ability! Your dao bone! I want it!”

This continuous attack finally made Han Qi react, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face!

There was nothing wrong with the Purple Jade Bell, but Zhou Feng’s attacks were able to bypass the bell.

There was only one explanation for this—Zhou Feng had an innate divine ability!

Divine ability! Generally speaking, only those who had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm could obtain a divine ability.

However, there were always some very special beings in this world that could be born with divine abilities.

Moreover, as one’s realm increased, the power of their divine ability would gradually be released.

This type of innate divine ability user would have Heaven and Earth symbols on their bones, which was why they were called Dao Bones.

According to legends, the cultivators of ancient times had discovered the Heaven and Earth symbols on the bones of some demonic beasts.

In the end, they created the cultivation level of the Divine Ability realm.

It was precisely because of this that both the demonic beasts and the humans’ Dao Bones were precious.

Once exposed, even a Purple Mansion cultivator wouldn’t be able to protect them because this signified a divine ability.

Han Qi suspected that Zhou Feng was a natural-born divine ability user.

However, only Zhou Feng knew the truth. ‘What natural-born divine ability? That’s just the passive Armor-Piercing Spear.’

“I’m afraid you still don’t know what natural-born divine abilities are! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have exposed yours so easily!”

Traces of greed appeared in Han Qi’s eyes.

To be honest, if Han Qi hadn’t read an ancient book, he wouldn’t have known what a natural ability user was.

This was luck! He, Han Qi, was indeed blessed by luck!

To be able to meet a wild natural ability user, such a genius would basically be taken away by those ancient sects once they were born.

‘Natural-born innate ability? Is he referring to my passive skill?’

Zhou Feng did not know what an innate ability user was, but he felt that the way Han Qi looked at him had changed.

That greedy look was like a burly man looking at a delicate flower after holding back for a few years.

“Purple Jade Bell! Move!”

After suspecting that Zhou Feng was an innate ability user, Han Qi planned to take him down swiftly.

If something unexpected happened and attracted others, it would be terrible.

The Purple Jade Bell hovering over Han Qi’s head started to shake slightly.

A series of soft bell chimes sounded, giving people a strange feeling.

Zhou Feng’s feeling was the most obvious. He felt that his body had been rubbed more than ten times by a big hand.

That bell sound also ignored his Demon-Devouring Armor.

Soundwave attack! It was impossible to defend against!

Fortunately, Zhou Feng’s body was extremely tough—this was the passive contribution of Old Skin.

He had constantly been triggering Old Skin, so his body’s strength had risen to a terrifying level. Thus, now that the Purple Jade Bell rang, he could still withstand it.

What made matters worse was that the Stealth-Venom Gu also launched a sneak attack during the Purple Jade Bell’s soundwave attacks.

The stealthy sneak attack, coupled with the Purple Jade Bell’s ringing, was a fatal combo!

‘Danger!’

Zhou Feng once again relied on his Battle Instinct and narrowly evaded the Stealth-Venom Gu’s sneak attack.

That pitch-black stinger almost stung him.

‘He’s clearly a Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator! The gap is actually so huge?’

Facing Han Qi’s deadly combo of attacks, Zhou Feng felt exhausted.

The gap between their cultivation realms was not big, and he even felt that the density of Han Qi’s Spiritual Qi was not even comparable to his own.

Zhou Feng’s Spiritual Qi reserves were like the sea thanks to Level-2 Gluttony’s crazily devouring effect.

Although Han Qi’s reserves paled in comparison, Zhou Feng was the one being suppressed during this battle.

‘He evaded again?’

Han Qi was somewhat anxious to see Zhou Feng evade the Stealth-Venom Gu’s sneak attack.

His opponent was weaker than him, yet why did it feel like he could not take him down in a short period?

He had the Purple Jade Bell and the Stealth-Venom Gu! He should have defeated an opponent like Zhou Feng!

‘What kind of perception is this? He seems to be able to predict every time?

‘And why is this body so strong? Could he have a Peerless Gu in his body?’

‘…’

Next, Han Qi launched several attacks, but he still could not defeat Zhou Feng.

This made Han Qi more and more anxious.

The Stealth-Venom Gu’s sneak attacks were utterly useless!

The Purple Jade Bell’s attack had some effect at the beginning, causing Zhou Feng to spit out blood and his body to shake.

However, Zhou Feng still looked like a lively dragon and tiger. It seemed like he could still stall for some time.

In fact, Zhou Feng himself felt like he was taking too much of a beating!

His body was extremely sturdy and could withstand attacks. Then there was the passive Self-Healing Constitution, which was automatically triggered when he was injured and began to heal his injuries slowly.

The most terrifying thing was that every time his injuries became more serious, the passive Unyielding Heart was also triggered.

Unyielding Heart: The more severe the injury, the better the healing effect.

Under all these factors, Zhou Feng was akin to an RPG tank player.

Meanwhile, when he had realized that he couldn’t defeat Han Qi in a short period, he began to accumulate strength secretly.

Zhou Feng’s plan was simple—he would first exhaust his opponent and then find an opportunity.

“Damn it! Heaven-Sealing Formation! Rise!”

The longer Han Qi dragged on, the more uneasy he became. He was afraid that if this dragged on, it would attract others.

He was also afraid that Zhou Feng would realize that something was wrong and run away.

Therefore, Han Qi gnashed his teeth and took out a formation disk.

Formation disk! This was something created by Formation Masters. Compared to formation flags, which required one to set up the formation themselves, the biggest advantage of the formation disk was that it could be released automatically without any operation.

A Formation Master needed to spend a lot of time and effort to create a formation disk, so even the simplest one was precious.

The formation disk that Han Qi took out contained a formation known as the Heaven-Sealing Formation.

This formation was said to be able to seal off an area of heaven and earth, thus concealing it from the heavenly secrets.

However, in reality, the Heaven-Sealing Formation that Han Qi took out could only seal off the surroundings, preventing Zhou Feng from escaping.

Moreover, it could only seal off the surroundings for around 10 minutes. When it was attacked, the duration would be even shorter.

That’s right! Han Qi planned to attack personally.

The formation disk floated in the air, and a huge formation diagram enveloped Zhou Feng’s head.

In just a few seconds, Zhou Feng found that he seemed to be locked in a cage.

Han Qi’s body began to emit purple poisonous gas on the other side.
