Chapter 75: Ready to Kill!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Feng left Bitter Bamboo Peak and came to the Earth-Fire Cave on the main peak.

‘Is this the Earth-Fire Cave?’

This was the place where the Tri-Gu Sect specialized in forging artifacts. It was said that the Sect Leader had asked a Formation Master to set up an Earth-Fire Formation here.

Some ores could be smelted with the help of the Earth-Fire Formation.

Moreover, only Soul Altar cultivators could enter and exit this place.

Ordinary inner disciples could not enter or leave this place.

It was worth mentioning that Zhou Feng had already automatically become a true disciple and had many privileges.

One could automatically become a so-called true disciple as long as they successfully broke through to the Soul Altar realm.

However, this new true disciple was really shabby and had received almost no benefits. There weren’t even many people who knew about it. It could be said that Zhou Feng was the most low-key true disciple of the Tri-Gu Sect.

Just like that, he had broken through without a sound.

‘So hot!’

Just as he reached the entrance of the Earth-Fire Cave, a wave of heat instantly assaulted him.

If he didn’t use spiritual power to protect his body, he would probably turn into dried meat in no time due to the temperature!

As he walked into the Earth-Fire Cave, ‘ding’ sounds began to ring out.

Numerous people were hammering things inside.

However, there weren’t many Soul Altar cultivators. These people were all sweating profusely, their upper bodies naked, and their skin completely red from the heatwave.

The most eye-catching thing was the chains on their necks.

“Eh? Someone from the sect broke through to the Soul Altar realm again? I’ve never seen him before!”

A short white-bearded old man walked out.

This old man was also topless. Although he was short, his dragon-like muscles were slightly eye-catching.

“Do you want to borrow the Earth Fire?”

Grandmaster Bai held a huge hammer and looked at Zhou Feng curiously. This kid in front of him was really a little strange.

From the aura, it seemed like he had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm, but he could actually smell traces of danger from Zhou Feng’s body.

A person who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm could threaten him?

Secondly, he could smell the aura of the Demon-Devouring Gu in Zhou Feng’s body even with his eyes closed.

But the strange thing was, Zhou Feng’s eyes actually didn’t have that kind of crazy appetite!

Those Bitter Bamboo lunatics couldn’t have such clear and calm eyes.

It was really strange!

“Yes! I’m here to borrow the Earth Fire!”

Zhou Feng had already done his homework. The Earth-Fire Cave was open to true disciples, and they only needed to pay Spirit Stones to use the Earth Fire here.

He had already stopped thinking about buying a soul artifact.

Buying a soul artifact not only required a huge amount of Spirit Stones but also required the consumption of sect merit points to be able to buy it.

Because of his cultivation, he did not have many Spirit Stones left. As for sect merit points, he did not have any at all. After all, the previous mission could not be considered complete.

Therefore, Zhou Feng wanted to rely on the smelting method that he had obtained previously to make up for it by forging a half-soul artifact.

“10 Spirit Stones! One day’s time!”

“No problem!”

Although it was a little expensive, Zhou Feng was still able to accept it reluctantly.

After paying the Spirit Stones, Grandmaster Bai didn’t stay there any longer and left in a hurry.

Zhou Feng didn’t mind and prepared to use the Earth Fire here to melt all the ores in his storage bag.

At this time, the true disciples of each peak also learned that the sect had an additional Soul Altar cultivator.

“When did this happen? Why did someone suddenly break through?”

“Those inner disciples who are the focus of attention haven’t broken through?”

“I heard that he’s from Bitter Bamboo Peak, and he’s also the disciple of the Grand Elder!”

“Bitter Bamboo Peak? Then… Do we need to rope him in?”

“We can try. Now is the time for our two factions to compete. We can’t let a Soul Altar cultivator join the other side!”

Zhou Feng hadn’t joined the Tri-Gu Sect for long, so he didn’t know some of the sect’s internal information.

In fact, the Tri-Gu Sect’s internal strife was no laughing matter.

The current Sect Leader was heavily injured, so the Ice Spirit Gu branch could no longer suppress the other two factions.

What’s worse, the Sect Leader had no male successor, only a daughter who was usually in seclusion.

Thus, the Bloodthirsty and Penta-Poison factions began to compete over the Sect Leader’s daughter.

Both factions hoped for a marriage with the Sect Leader’s daughter and then obtain the Sect Leader’s position.

And the only ones who were qualified to marry the Sect Leader’s daughter were the true disciples.

Now that Zhou Feng had broken through to the Soul Altar realm, he could be considered qualified. Therefore, many people wanted to rope him in.

After all, Soul Altar cultivators were no longer considered cannon fodder. It could be considered to have a certain amount of weight and could not be ignored like inner disciples.

Zhou Feng did not know anything about the sect that was already surging with undercurrents. At present, he was focused on smelting all the ores.

“The fire can be a little bigger!”

Zhou Feng continued to increase the output of his spiritual power, causing the Earth Fire to burn even more fiercely.

Under the support of the Earth Fire, all the ores were melted into a lump of molten iron.

Taking this opportunity, Zhou Feng tried to use his soul power to carve two solid and sharp symbols on it.

It was his first time forging, so he was extremely unskilled.

Anyway, there were a lot of mistakes, but he didn’t care too much.

Instead, he poured all the molten iron into the mold.

“It seems to be a little insufficient…”

After pouring it into the mold, Zhou Feng found that the molten iron seemed to be a little insufficient.

In the end, he could only settle for the second-best and shorten the blade.

Originally, he wanted to forge a Tang blade, but now it seemed that he could only forge a splitting ax!

Cooling!

Imprinting!

After some operation, a brand new splitting ax appeared.

It was mixed with unknown ores and forged by smelting.

The appearance of this splitting ax was similar to an ordinary splitting ax, but the trace of spirituality still proved that this was not an ordinary splitting ax.

“Is this considered a success?”

Zhou Feng tried to pour Spiritual Qi into this splitting ax and found that it could perfectly withstand his Spiritual Qi.

Then, he tried to put the splitting ax on the Soul Altar to nurture it.

He succeeded!

It could be said that he had forged a soul artifact.

However, this soul artifact didn’t have any special functions. It was just stronger and sharper than ordinary artifacts.

This couldn’t even be called a soul artifact. In the eyes of any Artifact Refiner, such an artifact was a waste.

However, Zhou Feng was very content. After all, he didn’t know how to refine artifacts.

Being able to store it in the Soul Altar was already considered not bad.

Zhou Feng didn’t pursue perfection. He only pursued having such a half-soul artifact in his hands.

His attacking methods had increased by another level. His battle prowess had increased by a little.

“Then the preparation work is almost done!”

The reason Zhou Feng did all this was actually to trigger the passive Soul Harvesting better.

The method to increase one’s Soul Altar grade was pretty simple—one had to have enough soul power to transform their Soul Altar.

At this stage, an ordinary person could only slowly grind through.

If one’s aptitude was good, perhaps the speed of transforming spiritual power would be faster.

But when it came to true disciples, consuming pills was the mainstream.

There were all kinds of pills, as well as auxiliary artifacts that could assist in cultivation.

However, Zhou Feng did not need them. Because of the passive Soul Harvesting, he only needed to trigger this skill to increase his soul power.

In other words, his breakthrough method would be to trigger Soul Harvesting instead of cultivating slowly.

Triggering Soul Harvesting was equivalent to hunting down cultivators.

To put it simply, he would kill and level up!

Since Zhou Feng had chosen the path of slaughter to increase his power, he naturally needed to make the necessary preparations, such as boosting his battle prowess!

‘No one seems to care about killing here anyway!’

Zhou Feng recalled his experiences.

The Tri-Gu Sect was really disgusting!
