Chapter 183: Dragon Force Storm

Whoosh…

The howling cold wind swept across the Dragon’s Grave, raising dust that filled the sky, sending sand and stones flying. Under the ravages of this storm, the laws of time and space began to distort, and the energy drifting in the air became unusually violent. Under the influence of the barrier, gravity was already abnormal within the Dragon’s Grave, and speed was greatly reduced. At this moment, gravity had increased tenfold compared to usual, making it difficult for even a Demi-god Peak Stronger to fly.

Dragon Force Storm!

Inside the Dragon’s Grave, this eerie and terrifying storm was called the Dragon Force Storm. It was said to be a storm formed from the resentment and remnant souls of giant dragons after their deaths; every wisp of cold wind carried power ful Dragon Force. Crashing head-on into it, it could instantly tear a massive Fourteenth Step war behemoth into pieces.

Every day, in the early morning hours, the Dragon Force Storm would appear on time, raging until dawn. No one knew where this storm came from, and no one dared to walk on the Wasteland at this time. The outskirts of the Dragon’s Grave were still manageable, but the closer one got to the depths, the more severe the storm became. Some Demon Hunters barged in knowing nothing, and the next day, not even their bodies could be found, only some fragments of armor on the Wasteland.

Hu Feng did not know the power of the Dragon Force Storm, but following behind the knowledgeable Hei Mu and Black Blood, he luckily avoided the disaster and set up camp in advance in a valley sheltered from the wind.

“Demon God Intent, the Rune carries the Way!”

Hu Feng sat cross-legged in the depths of the valley, condensing the Demon God Clone within his body according to the method taught by Black Blood.

Under the immense pressure of Prime Force, the massive body of the Grand Illusion Demon God slowly shrank from a thousand meters high to only one hundred meters, its body creaking. It constantly transformed and shook, bringing up countless dazzling afterimages. The smaller the body shrank, the faster the shaking frequency became, instantly traveling back and forth between the Prime Realm and the Void millions of times.

Roar…

After shrinking to about eighty meters, it had almost reached its limit. Under the pressure of Prime Force, the power and intent of the Grand Illusion Demon God were extremely condensed, struggling constantly, with power rolling inside its body. It raised its head and let out an angry roar, and the extremely compressed body suddenly rebounded and expanded, the Demon God Intent transmitted from the Void instantly skyrocketing. Its eyes were bloodthirsty and red, attempting to break free from Hu Feng’s control.

“Your fate is decided by me, your soul is controlled by me!”

Just as the Demon God Clone was about to backlash, Hu Feng took out the Grand Witch Altar and flipped over to sit on it. With no distracting thoughts in his mind, his hands constantly changed, forming profound hand seals. An ancient, vicissitudinous, and heaven-destroying breath immediately spread far away. The Demon God Clone, struggling with all its might, immediately felt powerful pressure and could hardly move. Hu Feng took the opportunity to surge the Prime Force in his body, forcing out a drop of essence blood and pressing it onto its brow, and vast Origin Power surged out. With a ‘crack’, a crisp sound came from inside the powerful Demon God Clone, and its body was forcefully compressed again.

Eighty meters, sixty meters, fifty meters… the body became smaller and smaller. Finally, it turned into a leaf and floated down from the air, landing in Hu Feng’s hand.

This leaf was crystal clear all over, covered with natural patterns forming a profound Rune. It looked light as a feather, but holding it in his hand, it felt like holding a ten-thousand-zhang mountain, as heavy as Mount Tai. Silver light flickered, constantly absorbing pure Demon God Intent from the Void. Holding it in his hand, a feeling of intimacy rushed over him. With a thought in his heart, he immediately shook and transformed into a Demon God Clone over five meters tall.

Compared to the previous body shape of over a thousand meters, his body had shrunk nearly two hundred times; however, with power rolling inside and momentum like a rainbow, the pressure and danger he gave off had only increased. With a casual shake of his body, he brought up countless images that were hard to distinguish from the real, and both his speed and combat power were completely different from before. With a thought, Hu Feng immediately turned into a leaf again and submerged into his body, disappearing.

Demon God Rune!

With the help of the Grand Witch Altar, Hu Feng successfully condensed a Demon God Rune, and from then on, he truly mastered the cultivation technique of the Ancient Divine Ability. As long as this Rune was not destroyed, even if a real Ancient Demon God descended in person, they could not seize his Demon God Clone. The Grand Illusion Technique also immediately stepped onto a new level!

After condensing the first Demon God Rune, Hu Feng’s mind was clear, and he began to truly cultivate. The sounds of fighting and roaring in the distance, the raging howl of the Dragon Force Storm outside the valley… slowly all disappeared, and his whole body felt weak and limp. Condensing this Demon God Rune had almost exhausted the Prime Force in his body, leaving a feeling of emptiness inside.

He did not know how much time had passed, but when he slowly opened his eyes, the terrifying Dragon Force Storm had long since passed. With a thought, he put away the massive Grand Witch Altar and appeared in front of Black Blood and Hei Mu.

“Brother Blackwater, do you want to consider again and join our Black Horn Team directly? Hunt together, wander together!”

Black Blood tempted Hu Feng again, carrying a huge bone on his shoulder. Witnessing the process of Hu Feng condensing the Demon God Rune, he was incredibly shocked.

What he passed to Hu Feng was only a low-level technique for the Black Horn to condense the Demon God Rune. Even in Black Horn, with the full help of the Elder who passed on the skills, a genius with amazing talent could not condense a Demon God Rune in just three days; yet Hu Feng before his eyes had unbelievably done it!

Evil Prodigy!

In Black Blood’s eyes, a guy like Hu Feng could no longer be described as a genius!

Now, he finally understood why Hei Mu appreciated this obscure young man Hu Feng so much, and why he strongly recommended him to join Black Horn! Such an Evil Prodigy was definitely someone every force would strive to win over; not getting him would definitely be a huge loss for Black Horn, which was thirsty for talent.

“If I join Black Horn, and can immediately be allocated a hundred Fairy Dragons, then I can consider it!” Hu Feng smiled evilly, making Black Blood speechless and only able to roll his eyes, “By the way, Brother Black Blood, what is that on your shoulder? Why did you drag such a big skeleton out of the chaotic graves? Could it be that you especially like to gnaw on this kind of bone?”

“Pei, you’re the one who likes to gnaw bones!”

The rough and burly Black Blood shook his head, threw the huge bone on the ground, and then said: “You guy have it good, sitting comfortably cultivating for three days, while Hei Mu and I were tired to death. In order to protect you, I don’t know how many Ghost Dragons we killed in these three days. It’s really strange, getting closer and closer to the Primordial Heavenly Dragon Tomb, why haven’t we seen a single Guardian Dragon Clan, but encountered so many Ghost Dragons?”

Black Blood spoke while panting heavily; these few days, he was indeed very tired.

On the night they set up camp in the valley, as soon as the Dragon Force Storm passed, powerful Ghost Dragons came to kill them one after another. Some only had the strength of a Fourteenth Step creature, while others were pitch black all over, having wandered in the Dragon’s Grave for who knows how many years, harder to deal with than a Sixteenth Step Black Dragon; they were endless to kill, as if the three of them had occupied their nest, fighting to the death. If not for worrying about disturbing Hu Feng’s cultivation, he and Hei Mu would have left this place long ago.

“What, I meditated for three days?” Hu Feng shook his head; in cultivation there is no sense of time, time passed very quickly. After pondering for a moment, he still couldn’t figure out why Black Blood brought the Ghost Dragon’s bones in, “Brother Black Blood, no, even if there are many Ghost Dragons, you don’t need to bring their corpses in, right? They’re dead through and through, could it be you really want to swallow their bones to vent your hatred?”

“To refine Dragon Bone Powder!”

Hei Mu raised his head from the side, grabbing a handful of yellow powder in his palm, “The situation in the Dragon’s Grave is very unusual compared to before; many experts attempting to plunder the corpse of the Primordial Heavenly Dragon King have poured in. I suspect that the three of us have been noticed by the Guardian Dragon Clan lurking in the darkness, who deliberately attracted large groups of Ghost Dragons. Inside the Dragon’s Grave, Ghost Dragons can be said to be endless; as long as a trace of Soul remains, they can swallow the Dragon Force contained in the Dragon Force Storm to be reborn. Now, our only way is to apply Dragon Bone Powder, so that every inch of skin carries the aura of the Dragon Clan. Otherwise, I’m afraid that as soon as we leave the valley, we will be chased and killed by large groups of Ghost Dragons, with no time or opportunity to find Dragon Bone Grass!”

Hei Mu was experienced and quickly saw the key to the problem. As he spoke, he carefully applied the Dragon Bone Powder he refined himself onto his body and clothes. Finally, he even grabbed a handful of Dragon Bone Powder, mixed it with water, and drank it down. Soon, a unique aura of the Dragon Clan emitted from his body, as if he were a giant dragon in human form. After understanding what was going on, Hu Feng quickly followed suit, moving even faster than that rough guy Black Blood. He not only applied it all over his body but also put away all the extra Dragon Bone Powder.

Such a good thing naturally could not be missed. Maybe one day, he could really use this to sneak into the Dragon Clan and act according to the situation.

After applying the Dragon Bone Powder, the three hid silently, drilling into a hidden cave and quietly waiting for the opportunity. Just after they hid, massive Ghost Dragons rushed in one after another, looking for their traces everywhere. Unfortunately, they turned around and found nothing.

“Brother Hei Mu, let’s go!”

Seeing fewer and fewer Ghost Dragons in the valley, Hu Feng stood up, preparing to take the opportunity to leave quickly. So many Ghost Dragons suddenly gathering together, even without Hei Mu’s reminder, he knew it was no accident.

“No, we will wait here until dawn, and set off the moment the Dragon Force Storm stops!”

Hei Mu looked calm, and sat down cross-legged to cultivate as he spoke.

Compared to Black Blood sitting beside him at the Demi-god Realm, the fluctuation of power in his body looked much weaker, as if his strength was far inferior. But when it really came to critical moments, Black Blood, that fierce guy, followed his lead. The fluctuations of power in his body were not strong, but their rise and fall were extremely regular, without the slightest error, as if he was cultivating a supreme cultivation technique.

“Hu Feng, too fast a cultivation speed is not necessarily a good thing. You already cultivate enough Ancient Divine Abilities, remember, if you are not sure you can condense them all into Demon God Clones, do not easily be greedy for more.”

Hei Mu suddenly opened his eyes, looking at Hu Feng with a half-smile, as if he knew his thoughts clearly, “The more Ancient Divine Abilities you cultivate, the greater your potential, but breakthroughs will be even more difficult. Sometimes, someone who has cultivated hundreds of Ancient Divine Abilities may not necessarily be an opponent of someone who only cultivates one Divine Ability. Hu Feng, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to Black Horn to find me anytime!”

Hei Mu spoke concisely, said a few words lightly and then closed his eyes again. Although his words were not many, they made people feel a trace of real warmth.
