153 Zhu Zhuqing annihilates Dai Mubai! She awakens her second divine status.
The old fighting style was no longer suitable for the current Chu Feng, whose Spiritual Energy was surging. One must know that the Spiritual Energy from those initial two hundred thousand corpses hadn't been fully absorbed yet; instead, it was all stored within his body to be fed to his spirit body every day.
So now, he had to find a way to utilize the power of his spirit body.
Since it was the Extreme Spirit Body, it had to have something unusual about it. Chu Feng began searching through his memories from his past life for anything interesting.
For example, something like wings or pinions.
He acted as soon as the thought occurred.
The Extreme Spirit Body was like a shadow of his own body, except it was tightly connected to him, appearing like an afterimage behind his physical form, and then it sprouted massive wings.
As the leader of these monsters, the Ghost Fish Spirit naturally had to act as the vanguard, but after so much time, how much of his demonic power remained?
It took out a trident that hadn't been used in a long time and threw it rapidly toward Chu Feng. With a gentle flap of Chu Feng's wings, not only was the trident deflected, but some of the monsters were instantly obliterated, their souls scattered.
Chu Feng stepped forward quickly, grabbed the Ghost Fish by the neck, and slammed it heavily into the ground, driving the rubble even deeper into the earth.
Seeing such strength, all the monsters trembled in fear.
Chu Feng thought the timing was right to use the Heaven Swallowing Demonic Art when a figure suddenly flashed past his back.
"How impudent." This voice carried immense deterrent power.
The minor demons all walked onto the rubble on the ground and knelt down respectfully, kowtowing to this figure.
None were not in awe; none were not afraid!
The monsters shouted, "Long live the Demon Venerable! Long live!"
Chu Feng turned back, retracted his wings, and sized up this newcomer with a significant background.
He had a head of incredibly messy red hair, and the black cloth armor on his body was covered in cracks. Small silver earrings hung from his ears, and a powerful Demonic Qi emanated from his blue eyes.
This was a true demon.
Humans have Human Qi, immortals have Immortal Qi, monsters have monster qi, and demons have Demonic Qi; Spiritual Energy is the necessary harmonizing substance within all these types of qi. From this perspective, Chu Feng was making a huge profit on this trip.
If he could defeat the demon before him, his strength would surely increase significantly.
"Hey, you Red-haired Brat over there, what's your background?" Chu Feng never showed proper respect to his opponents.
The Demon Venerable sat on an intact stone, took out a wine flask he carried with him, and said with a hint of intoxication, "I am Zhong Yang. I have lived in this Sky Prison for two thousand years. Seeing you for the first time, I feel your strength is extraordinary. How about we become sworn brothers?"
This fellow was so unrestrained that he didn't seem to have any intention of fighting.
Chu Feng gradually withdrew some of his Spiritual Energy, but the group of minor demons was still watching him like tigers eyeing their prey.
"Did you also come out of this tower?" Chu Feng asked.
Zhong Yang lifted the wine flask and poured it into his mouth. "Not exactly, but I should still thank you. You should know that in this Sky Prison, I have never been to the swamp before. This time, I consider it good luck."
"What do you mean?"
"I can move freely within the Sky Prison, but since you removed the seal here, the restrictions on my movements in the Sky Prison have weakened a bit more. Why don't you just let me out?"
"That won't do. You're a Demon Venerable. If I let you go, where would my dignity be?"
"You have a point, but now that the seal is gone, how much longer can the Sky Prison hold?"
"A grand Demon Venerable like you, reduced to this state?"
"That title is a matter from a thousand years ago. The Demon Realm is now nothing but a pile of dilapidated ruins. These minor demons are just speaking some polite words; do you actually take them seriously?"
"It's fine if I eat these minor demons, right? I really don't want to fight an easygoing person like you."
"No problem. If you agree to be my brother first, then I'll agree."
...This Demon Venerable Zhong Yang had actually latched onto Chu Feng. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't figure out this fellow's true strength, all this nonsense wouldn't have been necessary.
Filling his stomach had to come first.
So Chu Feng agreed, though it felt weird to be brothers with a demon lord.
The monsters all cried out, "Demon Venerable, you can't be so heartless! A thousand years ago, our ancestors all helped you!"
Zhong Yang snapped, "Helped? What a joke. If I weren't lucky to be alive, I would have been killed by your ancestors long ago." After saying that, he closed his eyes.
Chu Feng then began his meal, as a massive wave of Demonic Energy and Spiritual Energy continuously entered his stomach.
This was truly like sweet dew after a long drought!
In a short while, the underground space became somewhat empty.
Just as the last bit of Demonic Energy was being absorbed, Zhong Yang flew over and snatched a portion of it with his wine flask.
"What are you doing, stealing my food?" Chu Feng complained.
"What, as brothers, you're not even willing to share this much?" Zhong Yang was not polite in the slightest.
Chu Feng could only nod speechlessly.
The ceremony for becoming sworn brothers still had to be performed.
However, developing a relationship this quickly felt a bit abrupt and uncomfortable. Chu Feng wondered if this guy had taken a liking to him; oh, that would be a bit terrifying.
"I, Zhong Yang!"
"I, Chu Feng!"
"Become brothers today."
...It was just that short, without any more words. Don't bring up that business about being born in the same year and month; Zhong Yang had no interest in that.
Chu Feng looked at his wine flask and said, "That thing of yours isn't holding wine, is it?"
"It's all water formed from Demonic Energy." Zhong Yang was ruthless enough to drink his own kind.
He followed up by asking, "What do you plan to do next?"
"Go to the Sky Prison, of course. My goal for this trip is to devour it completely," Chu Feng said as if it were a matter of course.
"Although I don't understand what kind of strange cultivation method you're using, the Sky Prison is not a good place."
"What do you mean by that?"
"The Sky Prison is connected to the ruins of the Demon Realm. If you devour everything in the Sky Prison, there won't be enough Demonic Energy to seal off the Demon Realm, which will only invite calamity."
"Well, I can't just go hungry, can I?"
"Promise to let me out, and I'll think of a good idea for you."
...Who threatens people like this? Chu Feng felt more and more that his intelligence was being led astray by this guy.
But being cautious was good. Compared to that somewhat unreliable Bibi Dong, the Demon Venerable before him was indeed more trustworthy.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have let Chu Feng devour the monsters here so easily just now.
And so, Chu Feng agreed to this as well. "You help me fill my stomach, and I'll help you break your restrictions."
"It's a deal." Zhong Yang laughed heartily.
Bibi Dong had only just finished clearing the trash on the surface of the swamp at this moment. Through her senses, she heard Chu Feng talking with another person.
That person was an old acquaintance of hers, the Demon Venerable; she hadn't expected Chu Feng to become fast friends with him as well.
Ah Yin followed behind Bibi Dong. She was full of wariness toward the person in front of her, but for the sake of the one who had saved and awakened her, she trusted her for the time being. Moreover, the most pressing matter was to quickly reunite with her master.
However, the Sky Prison was now almost in a precarious state. The swamp was about to be filled by the nearby vibrating mountains, and a large amount of Demonic Energy was continuously leaking out.
