“Just a shell, and it possesses such terrifying power?”
Chu Feng realised he had still underestimated the entity before him.
When he couldn’t detect any signs of life, he had only speculated whether it was alive, dead, or in a deep slumber.
He hadn’t expected it to be merely a shell, with its soul absent.
In that sense, it was no different from being dead.
Yet, with just its physical body, it wielded such power. How terrifying must the entity itself have been?
No wonder the Divine Deer said the true Dark Demon God could effortlessly destroy an entire starfield.
In Chu Feng’s view, if the body alone was this powerful, the soul must be even more fearsome. Combined, their power would be incalculable.
“What is the pinnacle of power in this vast martial world?”
Faced with such a formidable entity, Chu Feng couldn’t help but sigh.
From the Lower Realms to the Upper Realms, Chu Feng had grown rapidly.
If he returned to the Lower Realms now, he would be like a god.
Even in the Mortal Realm, he was exceptionally strong.
Yet, standing before this Dark Demon God, he still felt as weak as dust.
It wasn’t just a matter of size; it was a disparity in power.
This made Chu Feng realise that his journey ahead was still long.
He was currently far too weak, far too weak.
“Young man, your strength isn’t enough yet. When you grow stronger, find a way to seal this thing. If it comes to life, it’s uncertain whether it will bring fortune or calamity.
If it’s a calamity, tsk tsk, not only will you die, but everyone you care about won’t survive either. In my view, even the Holy Light Galaxy might not be spared.”
The Divine Deer spoke.
As it finished, the sacred light enveloping Chu Feng began to dissipate.
Chu Feng knew the Divine Deer was leaving.
“Senior, please wait.”
“What is your origin, and what is your purpose within me?”
“Senior? Senior?”
Chu Feng pressed urgently, his curiosity about the Divine Deer surpassing even his interest in the entity before him.
Unfortunately, he received no response.
“Senior, if I’m in danger next time, please lend a hand.
If I die, what if you fall into the hands of a villain?
Not everyone is as kind-hearted as I am.”
With no other choice, Chu Feng left these words.
Though he got no reply, he felt the Divine Deer could hear him.
“Senior Zhuge Yuankong, if you knew the power you harnessed was such a terrifying entity, would you still have used it to construct this grand formation?”
Chu Feng gazed at the formation core again, sighing.
The treasure left by Zhuge Yuankong was built upon an immense formation.
The entrances to this treasure alone spanned multiple locations, crossing several starfields and countless worlds.
Yet, based on Chu Feng’s deductions, no matter which entrance one took, they could quickly reach this place.
But those entrances were so far apart?
Such vast distances would take considerable time even with ancient teleportation arrays.
Yet, in the face of this formation, such distances could be crossed in a short time.
This showed how remarkable the formation was.
In truth, it wasn’t just Zhuge Yuankong’s formation that was impressive; it was the Dark Demon God’s power.
Zhuge Yuankong had created such a formidable formation by harnessing the Dark Demon God’s power.
Though it was just a shell, the Dark Demon God’s shell indeed possessed unimaginable power.
Of course, it couldn’t be denied that Zhuge Yuankong’s spirit techniques were exquisite. Without such mastery, he couldn’t have so perfectly utilised the Dark Demon God’s power to build this formation.
Suddenly, Chu Feng darted downward.
Though he had entered the formation core, he had been observing the Dark Demon God from outside it.
He knew the true treasure left by Zhuge Yuankong lay deeper within.
As expected, in the core’s depths, there was a barrier formation.
Located behind the Dark Demon God, the barrier was not large, roughly the size of an ordinary house.
It appeared simple, but Chu Feng’s Heavenly Eyes couldn’t see through it.
He felt that, if he wasn’t mistaken, the treasure must be hidden within this barrier.
Chu Feng had underestimated Zhuge Yuankong.
He had thought entering the core would grant access to the treasure.
After all, reaching the core was already so difficult; without the Divine Deer’s help, he couldn’t have made it here.
But in reality, entering the core was only the first step.
To obtain the treasure, he still had to break this barrier.
The barrier seemed simple but was extremely difficult to crack.
Moreover, Chu Feng had realised he had only one chance. Success was self-explanatory, but failure meant no second attempt.
Facing this barrier, Chu Feng didn’t dare to be careless. He used his Heavenly Eyes to observe it carefully.
Suddenly, his expression lit up with joy.
The Heavenly Master’s Whisk, silent for so long, finally reacted.
Linked to Chu Feng’s consciousness, though it couldn’t speak, it functioned like a spirit compass, giving him guidance.
Chu Feng retrieved the Heavenly Master’s Whisk from his spirit space.
When he infused his spirit power into the whisk and released it, the power turned blood-red.
But there was no doubt his spirit power had been greatly enhanced.
Using the whisk’s power, Chu Feng began constructing a formation, one that surpassed his own abilities.
“Truly a treasure. It was worth the embarrassment in front of others.”
Chu Feng couldn’t help but sigh.
He was, after all, someone who cared about face. When merging with the Heavenly Master’s Whisk had temporarily disabled his spirit techniques, causing him to lose face before Long Xiaoxiao and Long Shengbu, he had remembered it.
But now, it seemed worth it.
Even if he lost face, obtaining such a treasure made it worthwhile.
With the Heavenly Master’s Whisk’s help, Chu Feng quickly cracked the challenging barrier.
But the barrier didn’t dissipate immediately; instead, a figure appeared.
It was an elderly man with white hair, aged yet strikingly handsome.
Chu Feng had never seen such a dashing old man.
He wasn’t wearing a spiritist’s robe but a long, snow-white gown.
The gown emitted a faint glow, enhancing his already striking appearance, making him seem even more divine.
Such presence was like that of an immortal descending.
Without introduction, Chu Feng knew this must be the greatest spiritist from thousands of years ago, surpassing the Saint of Enlightenment.
Zhuge Yuankong!!!
