Chapter 1986: Chapter 1985: Successive Breakthroughs

As for the Rabbit Clan.

Alright.

Li Feng admits that he chose the Rabbit Clan purely because they are notoriously weak among the Demon Clan, serving as a sort of baseline—a marginal addition that doesn’t really matter whether included or not.

Having weighed his options in his mind.

Li Feng took out a petal of the Ice Lotus. This petal was almost half used by Li Feng even before he returned to the Ancestor Dragon, but for now, he couldn’t find any better Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

After all, Phoenix Fire is the Supreme Yang Fire; if not balanced, it could easily cause Yin and Yang imbalance in the recipient. This Ice Lotus was born in a sealed cave within the Earth Fire of a volcanic mountain and is supremely Yin.

Moreover, the Ice Lotus contains an immense amount of Life Force, which can not only balance the Phoenix Fire but also provide substantial Life Force to it.

Chong Xuan managed to awaken his Bloodline and even re-emerge with vitality after awakening. Besides his Bloodline Power, the role of the Ice Lotus was evident; otherwise, with Chong Xuan’s nearly depleted vitality, he couldn’t have accomplished life-level transformation and transitioned from a dying state to becoming the Demon King.

Of course, for these four individuals, Li Feng didn’t offer the lotus seed; the petals were quite enough. After all, Li Feng didn’t intend to elevate these four to Chong Xuan’s level.

The division of the Ice Lotus petals varied: The Ape Clan’s Barbie Kong received three parts, the Bear Clan received half, and as for the Cat Clan and Rabbit Clan, each received a part—since these two demons were inherently weaker, the Phoenix Fire wasn’t particularly strong.

After all, the Phoenix Fire also requires fuel; the stronger you are, the more demonic power contained within, thus the Phoenix Fire burns longer and more vigorously.

As time ticked by.

The weakest, the Rabbit Clan member, was the first to undergo alteration.

However.

As the Phoenix Fire faded, the Rabbit Clan member’s graceful silhouette emerged, and Li Feng glanced over, feeling his own heart sway.

His heartbeat sped up involuntarily.

In the ensuing moment, Li Feng directly raised his hand and threw a cloak, his shadow swiftly covering the Rabbit Clan girl’s body. However, even in that fleeting instant of exposure, many surrounding Demon Clan members were lost in thoughts.

Could it be that the Rabbit Clan’s talent is allure?

Li Feng took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the Rabbit Clan girl whose face was partially covered by the cloak. This Rabbit Clan girl seemed to have a natural beauty aura; her face appeared smooth and tender. Every glance and gesture was alluring.

Not only that, a faint fragrance from her body seeped into the air, providing a refreshing feeling akin to eating mint.

Moreover, the ground underneath her feet, exposed due to trampling, seemed to become lush and green.

This Rabbit Clan girl appeared somewhat unusual, though judging her talent wasn’t easy.

"Did you see that?"

A Demon Clan member, clutching his chest, looked at his companions beside him.

"Yes, yes, even a fleeting glance stirred my heart—even though she seemed inconspicuous before, just one glance got my heart racing."

"This Rabbit Clan member doesn’t seem changed much, does she?"

"Hmm, a change that makes her more enchanting—isn’t that a change? The Rabbit Clan is notoriously a clan of ’failures,’ known for producing beautiful maidservants. Now, this Rabbit Clan girl has evidently become stunningly beautiful, even the one across from us is probably a bit smitten."

"Ah, what a pity, couldn’t get a longer look. Probably won’t have much chance later."

Many Demon Clan members were lamenting.

Some further suspected Li Feng’s choice of the Rabbit Clan seemed ill-intentioned, essentially sour grapes.

In the midst of surrounding chatter, the Cat Clan youth let out a roar. His organs and especially his Bloodline were first purified, and most of the blood within his Bloodline evaporated, all seeping out through his skin and then igniting.

Additionally, with the partial Ice Lotus petals injected, a power within the Cat Clan youth awoke swiftly.

The Ice Lotus neutralized the remaining Phoenix Yang Fire within his organs; as his heartbeat grew stronger, the purified Bloodline mixed with Life Force, creating new blood shortly after. At this moment, through refining, the Cat Clan youth awakened his Bloodline’s innate talent.

In the next moment, he transformed into a dark shadow and vanished from the spot, quickly moving into the Demon Clan crowd.

"Huh, how did that cat brat disappear?"

Before the Demon Clan member’s voice fell, a cold light already sliced across the Demon Clan member’s throat.

Only when the Demon Clan member felt a chill at their throat and touched it did they realize their hand was covered in blood, and when wanting to speak, they found blood gushing like a spring, resulting in instant death.

Cat Clan Shadow Assassin.

A terrifying existence, ghost-like and dreaded, though the Cat Clan’s status wasn’t high, their Shadow Assassins truly were intimidating.

Within a breath’s time, the shadow returned from the Demon Clan crowd, leaving behind over ten deceased Demon Clan members who didn’t even know how they died.

In the next moment.

The Cat Clan youth’s silhouette flickered, darting past in a blur, directly entering Li Feng’s presence. Before advancing further, Li Feng’s shadow suddenly moved.

Shadow Binding.

Li Feng’s ground-bound shadow instantly lifted, transforming into chains blocking the approaching Cat Clan youth.

This scene unfolded absurdly fast; many Demon Clan didn’t even blink before realizing someone beside them had died, then glanced at the emerging Cat Clan and swallowed hard.

Li Feng squinted at the Cat Clan youth standing a short distance away, now covered in a cloak that concealed his entire body, making his face no longer visible.

Despite being hindered, the youth didn’t advance but instead knelt on both knees.

"Thank you, Master, for granting me fulfillment. I bear no disrespect; the power granted by Master deserves my utmost service. However, I carry a deep blood vendetta; please allow me to resolve this hatred first. If I survive, I will return to serve Master for a lifetime."

Li Feng glanced down at the Cat Clan youth, understanding his sentiments. He knew that forcing retention would be meaningless, and he simply waved: "Go, I’ll await your return."

"Thank you, Master."

Finishing his words, the Cat Clan youth’s silhouette transformed into a shadow, disappearing before Li Feng as if whisked away by the wind.

"Camp Master, this Cat Clan Shadow Assassin is indeed frightening; upon awakening his Bloodline Talent, he immediately mastered such an advanced Shadow Escape Technique. Had I not been hiding behind your shadow all along, and not in public, he might have silently entered your shadow."

Li Feng acknowledged with a hum: "These Cat Clan Shadow Assassins have assassinated numerous human cultivators, including some strong ones. In terms of assassination, this clan is exceptionally gifted."

Speaking quietly, Li Feng looked toward the remaining three demons.
