After Zhou Feng heard the commotion behind him, he instantly condensed the Great Void Primordial Qi into a long spear.
The spear pierced through!
“Squeak!”
A rotten rat with wings was nailed to the rock wall.
This rat’s eyes were bloodshot, and its entire body was almost rotten. One could even faintly see some of its bones.
However, it seemed to be very energetic.
Even though it was nailed to the rock wall, it was still frantically struggling to escape.
“It has wings?”
Zhou Feng was a little surprised. He did not expect a rat to have a pair of wings.
It even sneaked up on him from behind.
‘What exactly is this place?’
If his guess was not wrong, he should have teleported into a cave.
For some reason, this place gave him a very uneasy feeling.
He.
Zhou Feng casually wiped out this rat and planned to explore this place.
“At least I’m out of danger!”
Since he was temporarily out of danger, there was no need to be so anxious.
Zhou Feng already felt that his cultivation was too messy.
So next, his goal was to find a way to integrate everything he had learned.
‘Wait!’
He suddenly felt that he had forgotten something.
“Why can’t I remember? This should be very important!”
Zhou Feng suddenly frowned.
He seemed to have forgotten something very important.
What was this thing again?
The AI!
After sensing that something was wrong, he immediately checked the information recorded by the AI.
“Spirit of the Spiritual Vein!”
Zhou Feng remembered that something seemed to have attached to his hand before teleporting here.
Sure enough, he lowered his head and saw a stone bracelet on his wrist.
This stone bracelet looked very ordinary, as if someone had randomly found a few rocks by the roadside and put them together.
Even its sense of existence was very low.
‘So, in the end, it still benefited me?’
Zhou Feng’s eyes flashed with a trace of fervor.
He didn’t expect that after so many Ascendants fought to the death, it would actually benefit him in the end.
This was a spirit that was born from a huge Spiritual Vein.
Not only did it possess extremely high intelligence, it could also transform back into a Spiritual Vein anytime and anywhere.
To the Spiritual Vein, gathering Spiritual Qi was as easy as breathing.
Its body even contained a special Dao Origin Rune. If one were to comprehend this Dao Origin Rune fully, then they would be able to control the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings.
“Let’s cooperate!”
Seeing that it could no longer conceal itself, this Spiritual Vein took the initiative to cooperate with Zhou Feng.
A weak voice sounded in Zhou Feng’s mind.
‘As expected, humans are the most inconceivable race. He actually discovered something amiss just like that.’
The consciousness of the Spiritual Vein that had just been born was somewhat discouraged.
It originally thought that it would be able to deceive Zhou Feng, a vagabond cultivator who had just stepped into the Dao Enlightenment realm.
Therefore, it used its spirit-gathering ability to make Zhou Feng completely forget about itself.
Alas, it didn’t expect that it wouldn’t be able to deceive him.
One had to know that it had relied on this move to conceal itself from its Ascendant pursuers.
Although the consciousness of the Spiritual Vein had just been born, it actually possessed countless memories.
This was because it had already existed for tens of thousands of years. Tens of thousands of years of wind and rain had made it experience countless things.
With this accumulation, the moment the consciousness of the Spiritual Vein was born, it controlled countless secrets from ancient times until now.
It could be said that for a Spiritual Vein to be able to give birth to a consciousness was simply a gift from heaven and earth.
If it could take a human form in the future, then the consciousness of the Spiritual Vein would definitely be able to ascend to heaven in one step and directly transform into an immortal.
“Cooperation?”
Zhou Feng’s expression didn’t change, and no one knew what he was thinking.
“That’s right! Cooperation!”
The spirit of the Spiritual Vein appeared to be very intelligent, and it even looked like an old fox.
It immediately saw through Zhou Feng’s current situation.
There were traces of various laws on his body, and he was completely different from the cultivators who had besieged it previously.
‘This kind of human should be called a vagabond cultivator.
‘Vagabond cultivators should be the most miserable humans. They have no cultivation resources or cultivation inheritances.
‘Therefore, as long as I provide enough benefits, I will be able to stabilize this person. If I get him to find a suitable Earth Vein, I will be able to revert to my original form.’
Zhou Feng had a thirst for cultivation-realm knowledge, so he started to ask directly, “Do you know how many realms there are in the Dao Enlightenment realm?”
Previously, Si Hun’s appearance made him realize once again that an inheritance without cultivation knowledge always posed a hidden danger.
Therefore, he needed to make up for this knowledge.
The spirit of the Spiritual Vein was very straightforward and began to explain.
“I know! The Dao Enlightenment realm is divided into three sub-realms: Dao Seeking, Dao Essence, and Dao Comprehension.
“Among them, the so-called Dao Seeking is to ask oneself what the great Dao and the laws are.
“This sub-realm requires the most basic understanding of the laws of the great Dao.
“Compared to the Divine Ability realm’s superficial understanding of the laws of the great Dao, this sub-realm requires the exploration of the core of the laws of the great Dao.
“This is also the difficulty of the Dao Enlightenment realm. Most of the cultivators in this world have no way to cross this hurdle, so they choose other methods to take this step, such as bloodline and Dao Seals.
“There are various methods that can help cultivators easily cross this hurdle.
“Compared to the cultivators of the ancient times, the current cultivators indeed have many tricks up their sleeves.
“Alas, the difference in strength is like heaven and earth.”
Suzerain Infernal Dragon was such an example. He was a mighty Ascendant, yet he was no match for a Dao Comprehension cultivator like Si Hun.
This was because he didn’t deeply understand the laws of the great Dao.
“I see…”
Zhou Feng now had some understanding of the Dao Enlightenment realm.
However, just as he was about to continue listening, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein stopped.
“If you want to continue listening to the rest of the content, please find some essence of an Earth Vein.
“Of course, I won’t let you suffer a loss. As long as you find the essence of an Earth Vein, then I can help you create some spirit crystals!”
The reason the spirit of the Spiritual Vein stopped was very simple—it was driving Zhou Feng to work for it.
The essence of the Earth Vein was hidden in the deepest part of the Earth Vein and was considered an earthly treasure.
Moreover, it would move according to the rhythm of the Earth Vein.
Under normal circumstances, it was very difficult to find it. This kind of earthly treasure was not very useful for cultivators, but it was an excellent tonic for the Spiritual Vein.
The spirit of the Spiritual Vein drove Zhou Feng to search for the essence of the Earth Vein in order to recover a portion of its strength.
After all, it did not have the ability to protect itself at this time. Even its spiritual intelligence would be worn down if it left Zhou Feng in this place with such a dense resentment aura.
Therefore, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein wanted to use this to blackmail Zhou Feng.
What Zhou Feng did not know was that in order to escape the Demon League’s restrictions, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein had basically given up everything that it could give up.
Now, only the most important thing was left. It didn’t even have the ability to resist.
Unfortunately, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein didn’t know that Zhou Feng hated it the most when people threatened him.
At that moment, Zhou Feng’s expression changed slightly.
