Feng Wuya stood to the side, without a hint of worry in his heart, because he knew everything was within his calculations.
His gaze suddenly fell upon the Wan Yao King, who was deeply engrossed in a mysterious painting, completely absorbed by it.
A cunning smile appeared in Feng Wuya's eyes, as if everything was under his control.
At this moment, the Wan Yao King was completely focused on the painting, seemingly oblivious to everything around him.
He knew the preciousness of this painting, and that as long as he could thoroughly comprehend it, he might be able to advance to the realm of a Half-Step Demon Emperor.
Therefore, he was completely focused, unwilling to be distracted in the slightest.
Seeing this, Feng Wuya finally relaxed and immersed himself in his own comprehension.
As a great cultivator in the Late Stage of the Nascent Soul realm, he had a long lifespan and usually acted calmly, but when it came to the opportunity to advance to the Half-Step God Transformation stage, he also became as if time was of the essence.
At the same time, Feng Jiang revealed a strange smile on the other side.
He whispered, "The Wan Yao King is indeed a beast, never as clever as a human.
It's still my family's Ancestor who is far-sighted; all of this is within his plan."
He took out a jade box from his hand, inside which was the Nine Nether Earth Fiend, a crucial item he had prepared long ago.
His eyes were deep, as if he could see through everything: "Li Xu, ah, Li Xu, I knew you were inside, and the Wan Yao King's Nine Nether Earth Fiend is in your hands.
Haha, this will complete me.
All of this is mine, all within the Ancestor's calculations.
What you thought was seamless is nothing more than child's play in the Ancestor's eyes."
Feng Jiang's mission was to kill Li Xu and obtain his opportunities.
He imagined what Xiao Mowen's expression would be after he completed the task and couldn't help but laugh.
He confidently walked forward, taking out another box, covered with countless runes.
He looked at the box with bright eyes and said, "The Ancestor is indeed the Ancestor, having laid out the plan a hundred years ago.
Using secret methods to give this Ghost Qi Spring Eye Rune a trace of intelligence.
Then, I will give this Soul Nourishing Wood to the Rune Spirit to help it absorb the countless Ghost Qi here.
In another hundred years, it will definitely evolve into a complete Thunder Soul Wood.
At that time, the Ancestor will be able to refine an supreme magic treasure."
Thinking of this, Feng Jiang's heart was filled with joy and confidence.
He felt that he already had victory in his grasp, and that killing Li Xu and obtaining the Nine Nether Earth Fiend was just a matter of lifting a finger.
He couldn't wait to see all of this come to fruition, and he was also proud to be a crucial part of the Ancestor's plan.
Among the many juniors of the same age, Feng Jiang was undoubtedly the most favored, and the resources spent on him were also the most.
This time, he was carrying out a mission, his heart filled with determination to complete it beautifully and bring glory to the Ancestor.
Feng Jiang didn't care about Feng Hai's death; in fact, he thought it was a disgrace to the Feng family.
Feng Hai relied on his mother, He Ping, to do evil, and in the end, both he and his mother were caught up in it, which Feng Jiang sneered at.
Although Feng Jiang was arrogant, he was very low-key in his actions.
He walked slowly in this area full of ghost energy, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Suddenly, his body swayed, and a soul flew out from the top of his head, revealing that he was actually a dual-souled entity.
The other soul looked ferocious, extremely evil, and laughed loudly, opening its mouth and sucking, devouring all the surrounding ghost energy.
Then it burped and sat on Feng Jiang's shoulder, saying, "It's finally time for me to come out and get some air; it was really uncomfortable staying inside.
I can finally use the ghost energy here to practice my own techniques."
Feng Jiang smiled slightly and said, "What's there to argue about? You are me, and I am you.
If it weren't for the fact that we are a dual-souled entity, allowing you to cultivate ghost techniques with twice the result for half the effort, how could the Ancestor have let us carry out such a difficult task?"
The second soul—the ghost—laughed loudly and said, "That's indeed the case. In fact, I'm much more important than you. If it weren't for me, would the Ancestor have sent you here? It's simply impossible."
Feng Jiang didn't argue with this attached soul, but simply said, "The Ancestor said that there are many Ghost Clan Ghost Generals here, and he wants you to come out and kill them.
Why haven't we encountered a single one along the way?"
The ghost sniffed and said, "There's the scent of battle here; they must have been killed.
And look, there are some Ghost Clan spiritual herbs here, all grown from ghost energy, and various ghost flowers have also been picked; it must have been done by that Li Xu."
Feng Jiang nodded, and his vigilance towards Li Xu increased even more.
He knew that this mission would not be easy, but since he had already accepted it, he had to go all out.
At the same time, he also became extremely interested in the Li Xu hidden in the dark, wanting to see what abilities this person who could kill Ghost Clan Ghost Generals possessed.
Hearing this, Feng Jiang's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said, "This Li Xu is indeed a difficult opponent, but that's exactly what I want.
Only such an opponent can make my blood boil and make me go all out."
The ghost also giggled, its voice full of anticipation: "I want to tear his soul apart bit by bit, and then slowly devour it. I like the souls of these excellent cultivators the most."
The two looked at each other and reached an understanding.
Feng Jiang continued, "His Nine Nether Earth Fiend belongs to me, all the treasures belong to me, and the soul belongs to you. We'll divide it equally, what do you think?"
The ghost laughed loudly, indicating that there was no problem. Then, the two quickened their pace, like gusts of wind and flashes of lightning, quickly moving forward.
In this land filled with ghost energy, the power of the Ghost Step was greatly expanded, and he felt extremely comfortable, even suggesting that he cultivate here in the future and not go anywhere else.
At this time, Li Chengfeng was still completely unaware that the enemy was rapidly approaching.
He was concentrating on absorbing ghost energy and condensing the Earth Fiend, finally reaching a perfect state.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and suddenly woke up, sensing a special ghost energy rapidly approaching.
This ghost energy was very powerful, reaching the level of a Ghost General, and was extremely fast.
Li Chengfeng had to put away his cultivation technique, stretch his muscles and bones, and then scan with his divine sense, instantly covering a hundred-mile radius.
In the eyes of others, it was extremely difficult to spread divine sense in this ghost fog, but Li Chengfeng was different.
His Prosper and Decline Sky-Supporting Art did not have this limitation. With a sweep of his divine sense, he immediately saw the situation of the approaching people.
His eyes narrowed slightly. Judging from the other party's aura, he was also a peak cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Refining.
Moreover, the other party also had another soul and the original body, the two as one, but one of them had already reached the level of a Ghost General.
This meant that the two of them could cultivate different techniques separately, one cultivating the techniques of the Wind and Cloud Sect, and the other cultivating Soul Refining techniques, a true Ghost Cultivator.
Li Chengfeng instantly understood. He turned his head, and with a thought, he said to the Rune Spirit, "Friend, I've brought you a feast. This person's soul is very delicious, and there's more than one; there are indeed two souls for you to devour."
The Rune Spirit laughed happily upon hearing this, "Really? Really?"
It scanned with its divine sense and said in surprise, "Wow, not bad, thank you, big brother! I want to eat him!"
Li Chengfeng rolled his eyes and said, "You have to be careful when you eat him; don't be deceived by him.
How about this, let's set up a trap for him and play a game; what do you think?"
"Okay, big brother, just tell me what game to play."
The Rune Spirit was also interested. These days, it had been constantly injecting ghost energy into Li Chengfeng, and it found that Li Chengfeng was so powerful that he had refined such a surge of ghost energy.
Nothing had happened to him, and he was the most talented cultivator it had ever seen, so it felt even closer to him in its heart.
