126: Chapter 126 The Resentful Servant…!

"Yes, yes... this servant understands. This servant would never dare to harbor any disloyalty."

Mu Siyao snatched up the Medicinal Pill from the ground as if it were a priceless treasure, kowtowing repeatedly with a face full of tearful gratitude.

She carefully crawled into the depths of the cave, found a relatively flat spot to sit cross-legged, swallowed the Medicinal Pill, and began to silently circulate the remaining True Qi in her body to absorb the medicinal power.

On the surface, she appeared obedient and submissive, like a thoroughly tamed sheep.

However, under the cover of the cave's dim light, Mu Siyao's lowered eyes flashed with a crazy and vicious glint, like a venomous snake!

'Damn little beast... to think you dare to make me suffer such a humiliating disgrace.'

She roared madly in her heart, her hatred churning like a towering tidal wave.

'A fool at the Second Level of Qi Refining, truly blinded by lust. To think you actually dared to believe my pleas for mercy, and even gave me a Medicinal Pill to treat my injuries?!'

'Good, good, good, you just wait for me. Once this lady recovers seven or eight percent of her injuries and re-condenses the True Qi of Qi Refining Level 5...'

'At that time, not only will I return the pain you inflicted upon me a hundredfold, but I will also slice off your flesh piece by piece, letting you watch with your own eyes as you are skinned alive!'

Mu Siyao's vicious plan was already perfectly outlined in her heart, and she couldn't help but let a secret, cold smile curl the corners of her lips.

Meanwhile, Qin Feng, standing outside the cave, didn't pay any mind to it and began his own Cultivate session...

At dusk, the sunset was like blood, staining the forest sea of the Black Wind Mountain Range in a brutal dark red.

Gusts of mountain wind whistled by, blowing the reeds by the stream to make a "rustling" sound; the entire world was filled with an air of solemnity and vastness.

Qin Feng sat cross-legged on a large cyan rock by the stream, listening to the wailing of the wind around him, and slowly opened the System panel in his mind.

"Extract Grade 2 Peak Epiphany Pill!"

Following the silent incantation in his heart. "Hum—"

A Medicinal Pill, perfectly round, emitting a refreshing fragrance, and even wrapped in a faint layer of flowing cloud patterns on its surface, appeared silently in his palm.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Feng tilted his head back and swallowed the Epiphany Pill. "Boom!"

The moment the Medicinal Pill entered his stomach, an extreme sense of coolness rushed straight to his brain!

In an instant, he felt his Sea of Consciousness expand infinitely, and his five senses became sharper than ever before.

When he closed his eyes, the entire world seemed to slow down in his perception.

The sound of the gurgling stream, the trajectory of falling leaves, the low roars of distant Yao Beasts, and even the movement of tiny dust particles in the air—everything, absolutely everything, became incredibly clear!

Especially the night wind blowing against his cheeks! "Wind..."

Qin Feng's heart was as still as water, carefully sensing the rhythm of the wind.

The wind, formless and faceless, seemingly weak and boneless, could pass through the tiniest crevices; but when the wind condensed to its extreme, it could transform into a gale that tore through the earth, destroying all obstacles!

This was the ultimate expression of speed and penetrating power! "Inhale—exhale—"

As his comprehension of the wind's rhythm deepened, the "Chaos Art" within Qin Feng's body seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force, beginning to circulate madly at a terrifying speed unimaginable to ordinary people. "Rumble!"

The Heavenly Tyrant Body hidden deep within his flesh and blood was thoroughly activated; the violent purple-gold blood Qi, like a boiling river, roared madly through his limbs and bones.

The dense Spiritual Qi in the surrounding Heaven and Earth seemed to receive some irresistible summons, transforming into visible Spiritual Qi vortexes that surged madly into his crown chakra. "Break!"

Accompanied by a low roar in Qin Feng's heart, the thin membrane imprisoning his cultivation was easily torn apart by the violent True Qi! Qi Refining Stage 3, achieved naturally!

However, the power of the Epiphany was far from over! The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was still pouring in madly, and the roar of his blood Qi even radiated outside his body, emitting a boom like muffled thunder. After just half an hour, "Crack!" Another crisp sound of breaking through a realm echoed within his body! Qi Refining Level 4, Breakthrough!!!

Qin Feng opened his eyes abruptly, and two tangible purple-gold electric beams shot out from his deep black eyes, instantly striking the surface of the stream several feet ahead, creating two deep waves. "Phew... breaking through two realms in a row, the Epiphany Pill is truly overbearing."

Qin Feng exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling the thick True Qi within his body which was several times stronger than before, and a satisfied, wild laugh curled the corners of his lips. With the foundation of Qi Refining Level 4 and the Heaven-Defying amplification of the Heavenly Tyrant Body, this trip was definitely not in vain.

"It's not over yet." Qin Feng was not carried away by the joy of his cultivation Breakthrough. He issued a command in his mind again: "System, use the Martial Skill evolution opportunity! Target: 'Inch Radiance'!"

[Ding! Command confirmed, Martial Skill 'Inch Radiance' beginning evolution and deduction...]

As the System's mechanical voice fell, the book "Introduction to Basic Formation" that Qin Feng had just borrowed from the Martial Skill Pavilion—its countless complex Formation patterns and Spiritual Qi meridians—surged like a torrent, frantically intertwining and merging with the rhythm of the wind he had just comprehended!

Deep within his Sea of Consciousness, the flying knives that originally fought alone and could only rely on linear bursts suddenly seemed to be endowed with life. Nine flying knives soared into the air, and under the pull of the wind's rhythm, they were no longer nine independent individuals, but were tightly connected by True Qi Formation patterns invisible to the naked eye!

When one blade moved, all nine followed! The nine flying knives connected head to tail, transforming into a line of death that tore through the Void Realm and blocked all paths of retreat! Where the blade tips pointed, there was no escaping; there was only a fatal strike! "Hum—!"

Countless realizations flooded his mind. Qin Feng's lips curled slightly upward, spitting out a few cold words: " 'Inch Radiance'—One-Character Fatal Array!"

Just as his comprehension ended, Qin Feng slowly restrained the violent purple-gold blood Qi around his body, once again suppressing his surface aura back to that mediocre state.

At that very same moment, from the cave behind him, a very light, yet unmistakably smug sound of footsteps suddenly came. "Tap... tap... tap..."

In the dim light, after several hours of regulating her breath and with the help of the Medicinal Pill, the wounds on Mu Siyao's body had scabbed over. Although her damaged tight leather armor was still tattered, revealing large areas of dazzling, snow-white skin and deep cleavage, the True Qi that had been depleted in her body was now remarkably full again!

The powerful aura of Qi Refining Level 5 had returned to her. Mu Siyao stepped out with her long, straight, fair legs, swaying her waist like a water snake, walking out of the shadows of the cave step by step.

Moonlight spilled onto her stunningly beautiful face; the mask of humility, sycophancy, and fawning from just a moment ago had long since been torn to shreds. Replacing it was a sense of superiority as if she controlled the whole situation, and a cruel, cold sneer that was vicious to the extreme.

"What? My good Junior Brother, are you done with your Cultivate?"

Mu Siyao stopped less than three zhang away from Qin Feng, arms crossed over her chest, looking at him as if he were a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, her voice filled with uncontrollable excitement and mockery, "I have to say, you newcomers are truly bold. To actually dare to treat and let a mortal enemy, who could take your life at any moment, rest and recover in the wilderness."

"However, thanks to your stupidity, Senior Sister is feeling great right now."

As she spoke, she slightly raised her delicate chin, and the pressure of Qi Refining Level 5 spread out without reservation, "Qin Feng, kneel down and beg me now, and perhaps you might still have a chance to survive!"
