--- Chapter 183 ---
Demonic Practitioners from the Heavenly Feather Sect glared at Huo Zhi with a shocked expression.
The red-haired woman actually sent their senior flying with one punch.
Demonic Practitioners' energy flow was different from that of 'Orthodox' Dou Qi Practitioners. Their energy flow is 'inherently' reversed, which leads to the nullification of Orthodox cultivation.
They should be at an advantage, but reality slaps them hard.
Their senior, Wu Chen, is one of Heavenly Feather Sect's top geniuses.
His demonic practice is above that of people in a similar cultivation base.
A 7-Star Dou Ancestor.
However, he still got beaten to the ground.
It isn't normal!
"What? Wanna fight?" Huo Zhi taunted with a smile on her face.
"You guys are all bark and no bite."
A mocking expression appeared behind her red veil, "Just because you are part of the top Demonic Sects, it doesn't mean you are at the top. You're merely clinging to the sect's glory."
"And using the sect's influence to bully other people."
"What a bunch of embarrassing fellows."
"Y-You!" The disciple of the Heavenly Feather Sect pointed their fingers at Huo Zhi. They wished nothing but to rip her apart right now.
Unfortunately, they have no power to fight her.
"You're Courting Death!" Wu Chen soared from the hole. He has a ferocious expression on his face.
Huo Zhi tilted her head, "Oh, you didn't die?"
Wu Chen snorted and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "Hmph, I admit that your punch was powerful. Still, it's not enough to defeat me."
Puchi!
"Pfft," Yao Ling'er chuckled on the side.
After a second, she couldn't contain her laughter anymore and laughed heartfully.
"Hahaha~!"
"Master, Master's wife, Junior sister. Do you hear him?"
She wiped the tears from laughing too much and continued, "This is the greatest joke I heard so far."
Baek Ain, Qing Lin, and Gu Xun'er also have funny expressions.
Although Huo Zhi isn't one of the strongest people in the world, she has slowly reached that realm. Among Baek Ain's disciples, Huo Zhi's combat prowess is the best.
It's not counting the fact Huo Zhi hasn't used her Red Lotus Flame and Red Lotus Body, which could enhance her strength even further.
"Feather Dance!" Wu Chen roared, causing a flurry of white goose feathers to fly everywhere. There are over a thousand feathers.
And each feather is coated with this sharp energy.
"Die!"
Wu Chen moved like a fleeting shadow, having a storm of feathers around him.
"T-This is Heavenly Feather's Descent!"
"One of the sect's three ultimate techniques!" The disciple of the Heavenly Feather Sect below shouted in surprise.
"The more feathers one condenses and controls, the more power this technique could release..."
"Senior Brother Wu has already passed 1,000 feathers. It means he could rival 1-Star Dou Venerate already."
'Rival doesn't mean defeat.' Baek Ain glanced at these ignorant disciples of the Heavenly Feather Sect.
He rubbed his chin and mumbled, "But an accumulation-type Dou Technique, huh? That's rare."
"I bet condensing those feathers requires a lengthy process."
"Now I'm curious about its function." Baek Ain smiled slightly.
He told Huo Zhi not to kill Wu Chen, and the red-haired lady nodded immediately.
Huo Zhi stared at the incoming feather storm and grimaced because beating this guy but not killing him was difficult.
Well, she would try something first.
Thunder Activation Art.
Swoosh! DING!
Huo Zhi's aura changed abruptly. Her long, silky red hair flared as electricity surged from her body.
Red lightning flashed around her, making her look like a Lightning/Thunder Goddess.
"1st Layer - Lightning Armor." Huo Zhi whispered, causing the lightning to condense into faint armor.
"Well, it seems I'm the only one who hasn't mastered Thunder Activation Art's first layer." Gu Xun'er sighed in defeat.
Even though Gu Xun'er lamented her fate, she knew well why her Thunder Activation Art wasn't 'smoothly' advanced as fast as her senior sisters.
Her Heavenly Flame is too strong.
Huo Zhi moved like lightning and crashed against the feather storm straight ahead.
"Fool, My Heavenly Feather's Descent is one of Heavenly Feather Sect's ultimate techniques." Wu Chen sneered coldly.
"You will die-!"
"Eh?"
SZZZ!
The feathers evaporated upon touching Huo Zhi's lightning armor.
She grinned and stretched her hand, grasping Wu Chen's face. She soared a mile away and slammed him into a mountain.
KABOOOOM!
The mountain was 'literally' smashed into smithereens.
"So destructive." Qing Lin commented while staring at the now-destroyed mountain. "At this point, She could defeat anyone below Dou Venerate Realm effortlessly now."
"Hubby, isn't your Lightning Calamity Divine Art a little too strong?"
"Well, what can I say? I'm just that awesome." Baek Ain decided to brag a little.
"Come on..." Qing Lin pouted at him.
Baek Ain chuckled and didn't say afterward because Lightning Calamity Divine Art and Thunder Activation Art are powerful Dou Technique he systemized throughout research.
It has the potential to rival the Golden Crow's Record of the Burning World but lacks substance and foundation.
Remember, potential doesn't equal raw and 'real' power.
"Ling'er, Xun'er, you two dealt with the people below." Baek Ain ordered his disciple.
"Okay!" 2x.
Baek Ain teleported to Huo Zhi's side and stared at the pig-headed Wu Chen. "Poor guy, you beat him this badly." He said with a smile.
"He deserved it." Huo Zhi harrumphed indifferently.
"How dare he mock you, teacher!"
"Good work, Zhi'er. Leave the rest to me." Baek Ain grabbed Wu Chen's head.
A powerful soul force injected into the demonic practitioner's head and drilled into his consciousness, eventually his soul. He learned this trick after awakening his Stigmata.
Since Baek Ain's soul is way more powerful, there is no way Wu Chen could resist him, so all his memories and secrets quickly drift to Baek Ain's strong mind.
Soon, Baek Ain got what he wanted.
Heavenly Feathers Wings.
Heavenly Feather's Descent.
Heavenly Feathers World.
Heavenly Feather Sect's ultimate techniques have fallen to Baek Ain's hand. He was curious about what would happen if he synthesized these techniques with the ones he had.
Could he create Dou Techniques beyond SSS Grade?
"Teacher, what should we do with these people?" Yao Ling'er and Gu Xun'er come while dragging some demonic practitioners.
"Give them to my wife. She would handle them."
After Qing Lin used her pupil's power, which was 'actually' enhanced due to her Serpent-Dragon's bloodline, to control these people with powerful hypnosis, she gave Baek Ain a nod. They continued their journey on the floating island.
They encountered some rare treasures on the way and took them all, and not even a blade of grass was left behind because once the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree released its heart and seeds, the floating city would be nothing but barren land.
The Bodhisattva Ancient Tree would return to the deep ground, creating another Bodhisattva Heart for the 'fated' person.
"Everyone, stop!" Baek Ain suddenly shouted.
The four ladies stopped mid-air and stared at him curiously.
"What happened?" Qing Lin asked.
Baek Ain activated his Origin Ashen Eyes and pried the surrounding area carefully. Thirty seconds passed, and Baek Ain was still staring at the empty air solemnly.
He even brought out Roc's Spine and was ready to attack something.
Another thirty seconds and Baek Ain finally let out a small sigh, "No, maybe it was just my feeling."
[Host, you...]
'Sssh.'
Baek Ain and the four ladies flew into the distance.
A woman in a black robe slowly appeared from thin air, gazing in the direction Baek Ain flew in.
"Did he sense me?"
"That's impossible. How could a low-star realm like this possess such an individual? It's weird..." She mumbled to herself.
"But I had to say... That man is quite handsome."
Far away, Baek Ain checked the system map and mumbled, "It seems like we have an unknown visitor."
