Chapter 577 - 576: Fusion Storm

Chapter 577: Chapter 576: Fusion Storm

Strands of the pitch-black storm condensed on his skin, forming a terrifying void tornado. Curiously, the power of this void storm slowly began to seep into Qin Feng’s skin.

It cleansed and purified him, tempering his flesh, blood, meridians, and bones with the purest Void Power.

In the deepest darkness of the Void, his figure trembled and shifted—stretching long, then growing thin, then fattening.

His body grew light and nimble. Merging with the void storm, he was like a child of the tempest.

Above his head, a ray of Spiritual Light coalesced into a golden Spirit Pattern.

One after another, four more Spirit Patterns appeared.

That made five Spirit Patterns!

Four cyan and one gold!

Five Void Spirit Patterns!

Qin Feng was slowly adapting to the void storm.

Half a day later, his speed began to skyrocket.

His form flickered, as though he was merging into the Void and becoming a king of its countless realms. His speed increased by more than just a few times!

SQUEAK SQUEAK!

The Little Sky Split Beast up ahead grew frantic, desperately burrowing deeper into the void storm.

A thousand zhang!

A hundred zhang!

Qin Feng’s body, now like a void storm itself, tore through layer after layer of the pitch-black tempest and descended.

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!

The swirling void storm coalesced into a human figure, appearing just ten zhang from the little beast—close enough to touch!

The little beast shrieked in panic, "SQUEAK SQUEAK!"

A slight smile touched the corners of Qin Feng’s lips. He pointed a finger. "Void Freeze!"

A massive surge of Void Power pierced the void storm and descended upon the little beast. Its small, fleeing figure froze solid!

But the little creature was resourceful. With a soft cry, a hazy gray light erupted from its scales. Like a slippery loach, it twisted its body and actually wriggled free from Qin Feng’s Void Freeze.

’It’s even awakened some of its Talent Divine Abilities!’ Qin Feng’s interest was piqued. The Star River True Power in his body surged, once again transforming into a blast of Void Power that crashed down upon the little beast.

"Void Lag! Void Retreat!"

The small beast’s fleeing form stiffened once more. At the same time, it actually began to slowly move backward!

The little creature shrieked, "SQUEAK SQUEAK!" It was clearly furious. The scales all over its body bristled, and with a slash of its two small claws, it sent out a sharp glint of light that easily tore apart the two applications of Void Power.

’Void Tear?’ Qin Feng’s eyes lit up as he watched the sharp power emanating from the creature’s claws.

’Void Tear is a High-Level application of Void Power!’

SQUEAK SQUEAK!!

The little creature spun around, put its paws on its hips, and pointed at Qin Feng. Its beady eyes, though trying to look fierce, betrayed its inner fear. It let out a torrent of random squeaks, looking for all the world like a shrew yelling curses in the street!

’This little thing stole my treasure and it dares to curse me out!’ Qin Feng was stunned for a moment before snorting coldly. "Hand over the Sea God Relic. Otherwise, I’ll flay you alive today, you little brat, and use your hide as a footstool!"

SQUEAK SQUEAK!! The little beast clearly understood Qin Feng’s threat, and a flicker of fear crossed its eyes.

It looked down, deep in thought. Standing there in the Void, it began to make gestures with its two small claws.

Qin Feng watched, perplexed. ’What is it trying to do?’

After watching a few more times, Qin Feng gradually began to understand what it was trying to say.

Qin Feng’s expression turned odd. "You’re saying... if I stop chasing you, you’ll give me something good?"

SQUEAK SQUEAK! The little beast nodded, overjoyed.

A faint, unreadable smile played on Qin Feng’s lips. "And what could you possibly give me?"

The little beast thought for a moment, then rummaged around on its body before pulling a stone from atop its head.

’A Void Element Spiritual Material, a Void Stone?’ Qin Feng was quite surprised.

The gray stone in the little beast’s gray paw was clearly a rare Void Stone, a Spiritual Material of the Void Element.

Void Stones are Spiritual Materials used to craft Qiankun Rings and Dimensional Storage Rings. They are formed over ten thousand years, polished by countless streams of Void Power within a void storm.

The Void Stone in the little beast’s paw was an Upper-Grade one. The pale gray rock was crystal clear and radiated a vibrant, spiritual glow.

Reluctance filled the little beast’s eyes. ’That’s a whole year’s worth of my food!’

It was only because it couldn’t outrun or outfight the human that it was even considering giving the treasure away.

But Qin Feng just shook his head. "Nope. I don’t need a Void Stone. It’s useless to me."

The little beast was crestfallen. After a moment’s thought, it pulled a single scale from its body.

Its eyes filled with intense reluctance as it gazed at the scale. It was the very scale it had been born with, the one it loved to hug while it slept.

With a low whimper, the little beast finally extended its paw.

It was a gray scale, from which emanated a wondrous aura.

Qin Feng’s expression changed in an instant, his gaze locking onto the scale. From it, he could faintly sense the profound aura of the Void Origin.

Qin Feng had a strong premonition. ’If I can get my hands on this, the day I condense my Void Origin won’t be far off!’

Qin Feng glanced at the intensely reluctant little beast. "Little fella, are you really willing to give this to me?"

SQUEAK SQUEAK! The little beast chirped softly and nodded.

A glint flashed in Qin Feng’s eyes. He smiled at the little beast. "How about this, little fella? Why don’t you stick with me? You give me back the Sea God Relic, and you can keep your scale."

With that, Qin Feng formed a Seal Technique and released the aura of his Chaos Ancient Tree. A vast, primordial Void aura from the Ancient Era emerged, stabilizing the surrounding Void. Behind him, the towering phantom of a Chaos Ancient Tree took form.

The little beast’s eyes lit up at the sight of the ancient tree. It could clearly sense that this tree would be of indescribable benefit to its Cultivation. This was a call from the Origin of its very bloodline.

"You see? This is the Void Divine Level Spirit Root, the Chaos Ancient Tree. If you follow me, not only will you get to keep your scale, but you can also stay by this ancient tree’s side day and night. You’re a Void Element Spirit Beast, a direct descendant of the Void Element’s Ancient True Spirit, the Sky Split Beast. If you can stay by the Chaos Ancient Tree, fully awakening your bloodline and restoring the glory of Ancient Times will be just a matter of time!"

Qin Feng added, "It’ll be mutually beneficial. I won’t restrict your freedom. I’ll only need you to lend me a hand when the time comes."

It was blatant temptation!

The Chaos Ancient Tree was the supreme Spiritual Root of the Void Element, containing the purest of Void Power. If a Void Element Spirit Beast could cultivate beside it, its progress would advance by leaps and bounds.

This tree’s allure was just like that of the Dragon Blood Ancient Tree to the Dragon Race.

The little beast whimpered, caught in a dilemma.

After a moment, it let out a soft cry and looked up at Qin Feng. It opened its mouth, and with a flash of light, a pale blue radiance shot into a nearby void storm.

’The Sea God Relic?!’

The void storm was about to sweep the relic into the depths of the Endless Void!

Qin Feng’s brow furrowed. With a flicker, he became a violent void storm himself, diving into the tempest and snatching the Sea God Relic.

While Qin Feng’s attention was on the void storm, the Sky Split Beast flickered and vanished without a trace!

’Sacrifice the chariot to save the king? What a clever little thing.’ Seeing the Sky Split Beast use this chance to flee, Qin Feng wasn’t angry at all. In fact, he grew even more fond of it.

’Hmph, you’re not getting away. You might have escaped with that trick before I grasped the Mystical Meaning of the void storm. But now... you’re caught!’

Qin Feng glanced at the Sea God Relic in his hand.

The Sea God Relic was a peculiar object that couldn’t be stored in a personal space, not even his Chaos Heaven.

After a moment of thought, Qin Feng opened his mouth and swallowed the bead-like Sea God Relic, sealing it within his stomach. With a flicker of his body, he shot off in the direction the Sky Split Beast had vanished.
