The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 274: Returning! The End of the Beast Hunt!

"Roar!"

The Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python unleashed a furious roar as it surged madly towards Ling Feng, swirling wildly in its approach.

The human's audacity to leave scars on its noble body had driven the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python to the peak of fury.

"Whoosh!"

The Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python, akin to a bolt of lightning, was on the verge of swallowing Ling Feng's entire body!

At that moment, a silent and stealthy purple light had quietly approached the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python and slipped into its body through its wound.

Zifeng finally seized the opportunity and completed his own task at that critical moment.

"Time to devour some life essence!"

Zifeng's body shimmered with a faint purple light, and it was as if tentacles extended and rooted themselves into the flesh of the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python.

The next moment, the heart of the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python throbbed violently.

"Thud!"

Abruptly overwhelmed by fatigue, the colossal form of the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python crashed heavily to the ground.

Its limited intelligence couldn't grasp why it suddenly became utterly exhausted, as if all its strength had been drained away.

Gradually, its vitality waned and its flesh withered with each passing moment.

By the time it realized a purple intruder had infiltrated its body, it was too late!

The colossal form of the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python convulsed violently on the ground for a few moments. Then, as its life force dwindled, its strength drained away rapidly. It lay prostrate on the ground, gasping for breath and awaiting the inevitable embrace of death.

"What enormous vitality this thing has! How exhilarating! Truly exhilarating!"

Zifeng laughed heartily, impressed by the formidable life force of a fifth-tier demonic beast which even surpassed that of human experts like Yue Zhonglian.

Despite humans having faster cultivation speed, they couldn't rival the longevity of demonic beasts. While human experts in the Spiritual Element Realm might live for two or three hundred years, a fifth-tier demonic beast could live for nearly a thousand years.

"Zifeng, you've had your fill. Quick, share some of that vitality with me!"

Ling Feng's voice resonated. Their minds were seamlessly connected, enabling communication through mere thoughts.

"Yes, master!" Zifeng joyfully emerged from the wound of the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python. At that moment, the dragon appeared immensely aged. Its shed snake skin littered the ground, and it barely had a breath left in it[1].

Without Zifeng's previous utilization of the Earth-Fire Flame Demon's body for molting evolution, it might not have been possible to drain the life force of a fifth-tier demonic beast in such a short time.

"Phew..."

Ling Feng regained some strength from Zifeng's shared vitality. Gripping the Eradicator of Realms, he slowly rose to his feet and approached the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python.

Clang!

With a swift and straightforward strike, Ling Feng secured the demonic core of the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python.

"Roar!"

A final, unwilling bellow resounded as the Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python's massive tail thrashed heavily upon the ground. Its strength was finally depleted, bringing an end to its serpent life...

"Now, time to employ the Eight Desolations Body Refinement Art and absorb the bloodline power of this demonic beast."

Excitement gleamed in Ling Feng's eyes as the first use of the Eight Desolations Body Refinement Art was on a fifth-tier demonic beast. I wonder how strong my physique will be after cultivation...

...

Fighting!

Battling!

Within the Tianwei Mountain Range, students of the Tianwei Academy engaged in fierce battles with ferocious and bloodthirsty demonic beasts.

It was amidst the turmoil of blood and fire that a martial practitioner truly broke free from constraints, ascending to the ranks of genuine experts.

Soon, three days had passed.

Gradually, all the students began to return to the assembly point.

By the time Ling Feng returned, all the yellow-tier students from the East Court had already gathered, not a single one missing!

"Everyone's back, not bad!"

Devil Instructor Leng Jianfeng smiled faintly upon seeing Ling Feng's belated arrival.

He had been concerned that Ling Feng might have overestimated himself, venturing alone into danger. It would have been a shame if he had met his end in the Tianwei Mountain Range.

Beside Leng Jianfeng's stood a graceful woman, who was none other than the beautiful mentor Su Qingxuan.

As the homeroom teacher for the yellow-tier students, Su Qingxuan welcomed her returning students with satisfaction.

"Finally, everyone's back!"

Su Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief. She had a lot of anxiety when she realized Ling Feng had yet to return, and could now relax.

"Big Brother!"

Excitedly, Ouyang Jing and the others rushed over to Ling Feng and surrounded him. Seeing him safe and sound, they breathed a collective sigh of relief and erupted into laughter.

"Well, looks like I'm not destined for a short life after all!" Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, smiling as he glanced over his brothers. After days of combat, they all now carried a subtle air of maturity This was especially the case for Jiang Xiaofan, whose martial spirit seemed particularly strong.

This guy was a born battle maniac!

"Hmph, this guy. Why is he not dead yet!? Truly a thousand-year-old disaster!" Qin Wanwan muttered, though her relieved expression contradicted her words.

"Hehe, cousin, don't be so two-faced!" Liu Yunfei raised an eyebrow, chuckling.

"It's none of your business!" Qin Wanwan retorted, elbowing Liu Yunfei in the stomach before rolling her eyes. Despite her reaction, a faint blush colored her cheeks.

In the midst of his brother's embrace, Ling Feng strode toward Leng Jianfeng and Su Qingxuan. He nodded in acknowledgment. "I'm back," he stated calmly.

"You're late. I thought you, the one who always bit off more than he can chew, went off to challenge a fifth-tier demonic beast alone and didn't make it!"

Leng Jianfeng put on an impatient expression and muttered, "Alright, we've tallied up the results for all the students in the East Court. You're the only one left, so hand over your demonic cores!"

Ling Feng rubbed his nose. The Devil Instructor actually guessed it right this time.

Indeed, he had ventured to face a fifth-tier demonic beast alone. However, it wasn't he who met his demise, but rather the unfortunate Sky-Swallowing Dragon Python.

"Alright." Ling Feng nodded and pulled out a pouch made of beast hide from his storage spirit ring. He then handed it over to Leng Jianfeng.

Taking the pouch, Leng Jianfeng opened it and found himself unable to resist blinking rapidly in astonishment. He exclaimed, "Seventy-two demonic cores, and all of them belonging to the fourth-tier!"

"What?"

Instantly, the surrounding students couldn't help but admire.

"Tsk tsk tsk, truly worthy of being the chief! Impressive!"

"Haha, the chief proves himself once again! But it's quite interesting that this time, the chief and Li Bufan achieved the same results."

"Yeah, Li Bufan and the chief tied when he first arrived, and now they've tied again. They're really evenly matched, so it's hard to say who's better!"

Leng Jianfeng reached out and gave Ling Feng's shoulder a firm pat. "Well done, kid, you did great. This time, the East Court can finally hold its head high."
