Chapter 139: Identity Exposed

Looking at Bailier, who was as terrified as a little lamb, Hu Feng smiled faintly. He took out the Fallen Bible he had snatched from Luer and refined it on the spot. With a ‘whoosh’, he spread his enormous Dark Wings and floated into the air. A massive Death Aura surged out, revealing his true identity without any concealment.

My world, I decide!

Within the vast Prime Realm, Hu Feng had no scruples.

A ball of scorching Angel Flame appeared on his fingertip, enveloping the imposing Fallen Bible. Slowly, the Fallen Bible, covered in Fallen Angel Statues, began to soften, and mysterious tadpole-shaped characters emerged one by one. A heart-palpitating Fallen Aura permeated every corner of the Prime Realm. The Fallen Demon God, who was cultivating in the Prime Realm, suddenly expanded in size. Opening its mouth and inhaling, strands of Ancient Demon God consciousness rolled in across the endless Void.

Shrouded in Dark Mist and Fallen Aura, Hu Feng’s body became fainter, while his eyes became clearer—sharp, cold, and devoid of any emotional fluctuation, like a high-and-might Ancient Demon God coldly looking down on all living beings. One look into his eyes felt like falling into an endless Abyss, one’s consciousness sinking.

A Demon God had descended!

Hu Feng, floating in the air with his Dark Wings spread, shocked Bailier immensely at this moment, making her unable to raise a single thought of resistance.

“Death is the cycle of life; fall is a new beginning!”

Hu Feng muttered to himself. He focused on refining the Fallen Bible in his hand, and the energy fluctuations within his body rose steadily. With a thought, the Seal Demon Record, refined from half of the Dark Heavenly Book, flew out from his body and slowly merged with the Fallen Bible in front of him. Extremely Yin and cold Death Aura, evil and dark Fallen Aura, sacred and inviolable Holy Energy, as well as majestic Magic Power, Barbaric Divine Power, and soul power , slowly merged amidst their repulsion, gradually transforming into a brand-new energy.

This energy was different from all the energy he had seen before. Powerful and warm, it flowed slowly within his body like a warm current, echoing and merging with the energy fluctuations of the entire Prime Realm. The mountains, rivers, every grass and tree within the Prime Realm all transmitted a clear and familiar fluctuation. A feeling of absolute control rose in his heart. The Dark Mist and Fallen Aura outside his body quickly disappeared, replaced by an energy that could change in a thousand ways. Although she could clearly see him floating in the air, Bailier could not sense a trace of Hu Feng’s aura. At this moment, it was as if he was the sky, the earth, completely one with the vast Prime Realm.

“Could this be the so-called World Power!”

Hu Feng slowly opened his eyes. With a gentle breath, the energy fluctuations filling the entire Prime Realm rippled like waves. After condensing the World Power, only at this moment did he truly become the Master of the Prime Realm. His strength had not changed much; he was still only at the Great Magician Sixth Step, but his understanding of the origin of power had unknowingly stepped up a level. The Magic Crystal and Soul Crystal inherited from the Lich King Ovisis had disappeared at some point, replaced by a surging Origin Power that never ceased.

“World Power, Prime Realm… from now on, this Origin Power shall be called Prime Force!”

With a thought from Hu Feng, the Dark Wings behind him vanished. He landed lightly on the ground like a feather, raising no dust. The Seal Demon Record in his hand, after merging with the Fallen Bible, now had an angel with deep, pitch-black eyes on its cover, once again emitting a vast and mysterious aura.

Originally, this half of the Dark Heavenly Book only had the function of sealing, having lost many of its powerful divine abilities. Now, it was finally brand new and had restored some of its functions. If he could snatch the lower half of the Heavenly Book from the Previous Saintess of the Divine Court, Flochra, and restore the might of the Dark Heavenly Book, he would surely kill gods who stood in his way, and kill Buddhas who blocked his path!

After refining the Fallen Bible, Hu Feng took out the mysterious treasure, the Crystal World, and refined it on the spot. Helplessly, after trying for a long time, the Crystal World held in his palm still showed no reaction; even the Angel Flame, claimed to melt everything, was powerless. Like a crystal tower, the Crystal World was a world of its own, immune to any external intrusion.

Holding it in his hand and sensing with a calm mind, he could feel the boundless energy contained within the Crystal World. If he could devour this immense power, Hu Feng was absolutely certain he could break through to the Holy Step High Rank, or even directly break through to the Demi-god Realm. Observing closely with the naked eye, one could see tiny black dots like little people, mountains, rivers, castles, and palaces; it had everything, much more complex than the undeveloped Prime Realm. Unfortunately, no matter what methods he tried, his Divine Sense could not penetrate it.

“What should I do to snatch the Crystal World from this Great Demon Head?”

As soon as she saw Hu Feng take out the Crystal World, Bailier, who had regained her freedom of movement, lit up. Although she knew it was impossible, she still subconsciously pondered secretly.

The Crystal World, a treasure lost by her family for countless years, was too important to the Crystal City where her clansmen relied for survival. If it was not repaired in time, the entire Crystal City could collapse and crumble at any moment. Thinking of her helpless clansmen, a bold idea slowly formed in Bailier’s heart, and she walked slowly towards Hu Feng. Her steps were light; stepping down, she left only a faint water mark on the ground. If she could obtain the Crystal World, she would not hesitate even if her body were crushed to pieces!

“Miss Bailier, do you want this treasure?”

Hu Feng suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Bailier walking over, and smiled wickedly.

When he untied Bailier, he had already secretly planted a seed of fall in her heart using the Fallen Whip. He could not yet control her body and Soul, but as long as she had any unfavorable thoughts towards him, he would immediately sense it clearly.

A beauty who appeared gentle on the outside but was strong on the inside, with a stubborn personality! Such a beauty was rare; slowly corrupting and slowly training her was the only fun!

Startled by Hu Feng’s sudden question, Bailier retreated a few steps in nervousness and instinctively shook her head. Thinking of Hu Feng’s powerful strength, her heart felt bitter. She understood that seizing the Crystal World was a wild fantasy with no possibility. Even if she luckily snatched it while Hu Feng was unaware, how could she escape from this isolated space?

In the Prime Realm controlled by Hu Feng, Bailier could not sense a trace of the outside world.

“I heard this is a treasure your family lost a long time ago. Originally, I intended to return it to you. Since you don’t want it, forget it!”

Hu Feng stood up as he spoke, then continued: “In the tranquil Prime Realm, no one will disturb your cultivation. Ten miles to the east, there is a holy Monastery. If you need anything, you can ask the Nuns inside for help. Of course, if you are willing, you can also become a Nun inside. Miss Bailier, I believe with your ability, you will absolutely be the most holy and outstanding Nun after joining the Monastery!”

Hu Feng pretended to leave, playing hard to get.

Based on the conversation between Bailier and the Brocade-Robed Old Man outside the Nameless Valley, it could be deduced that the Crystal World was a treasure lost by their family for countless years. Since he could not refine it himself, perhaps he could scheme something from them!

“Wait, why are you imprisoning me here? Also, where is my father?” Sure enough, seeing Hu Feng about to leave, Bailier immediately became anxious and worried.

“Imprisoning you here is for your own good!”

Hu Feng paused, then continued: “The battle at the Nameless Valley has alerted the great Lord Moss. Now, large groups of Glory Knights are everywhere outside looking for your traces. Once you show your face, you will absolutely be captured immediately. Your father has been imprisoned by the Glory Knights in the great prison of the Monastery. If you are captured too, who will report to your clansmen, and who will rescue your father?”

“Lord, you are a Judgment Divine Official, surely you have a way to release my father. As long as I can save Father Lord, I am willing to do whatever you ask!”

Bailier’s eyes were pitch-black and bright. She spoke while staring unblinkingly at Hu Feng, her face full of determination.

“This… is very difficult!”

Hu Feng shook his head, looking troubled. “That’s right, as a Judgment Divine Official, I do have many privileges. However, your father is suspected of colluding with the evil Fallen Guard and has been locked in the great prison; releasing him won’t be that easy. Of course, it’s not impossible. If you tell me the method to refine the Crystal World, I can try my best to help you!”

“What? No… impossible! Refining the Crystal World requires… requires…”

Bailier’s face turned red, and she shook her head firmly.

“Miss Bailier, think about it carefully. However, time is running out for you. Your father could be tied to a Burning Stake and burned to death as an evil Heretic at any moment. There are no enemies in the Prime Realm, but there are many powerful wild creatures. This Fallen Whip is for you to protect yourself. Come find me when you have thought it through!”

Hu Feng took out the personally refined Fallen Whip. He was about to tease the beauty Bailier a bit more when his brow suddenly twitched. He cut the conversation short, left quickly, and vanished into the vast Prime Realm. Just after returning to the annex of the Monastery, he heard faint footsteps outside. Soon, a wretched fellow climbed in sneakily through the window. Peering around, it was that guy Saliel.

Originally, Hu Feng was a bit puzzled, wondering who had quietly bypassed his senses. Seeing it was that guy Saliel, he suddenly realized.

He had set up a hidden Magic Array in the room to detect energy fluctuations in the surroundings; he would quickly notice anyone approaching. The folk in the Wasteland were tough; usually, even an ordinary person contained some Dou Qi or Magic Power, so there would be no mistakes. But against a good-for-nothing like Saliel, it lost its effect.

“Lord, Lord Hu Feng…”

Seeing Hu Feng’s figure suddenly, Saliel was also shocked.

He had thought Hu Feng had gone out, so he sneaked in to rummage through Hu Feng’s things, hoping to find some leverage. Unexpectedly, he bumped right into Hu Feng’s figure. In his great shock, his limbs turned cold. After a long while, seeing Hu Feng had no reaction, as if he was concentrating on cultivation and unaware of the outside world, an idea struck him. He gritted his teeth, pulled out a sharp dagger, stepped forward a few steps, pulled back the large cloak covering Hu Feng’s head, and stabbed down viciously. Unexpectedly, there was no imagined blood or scream; with a ‘ding’, the sharp dagger struck a hard bone directly.

Under the fiery red Divine Official robe, there was no sign of Hu Feng; there was clearly only a cold Skeleton!
