Jiang Feng felt a cool sensation trickling down from the top of his head, flowing through every part of his body. The surrounding Restriction Array, under the coverage of his Spiritual Sense, became more distinct and visible.
The Red Dust Sword at his waist vibrated with a humming sound, its resonance with himself seemed to rise in an instant; Jiang Feng suddenly grasped the method of Sword Manipulation Killing, a mere thought could send the Red Dust Sword slicing toward an enemy kilometers away.
The remote control distance, close to three thousand meters.
Jiang Feng flipped his palm, and the Qinglong Cauldron, which had become a button, slipped from his clothes and appeared in his palm.
Jiang Feng had always been curious about what kind of Magical Artifact the Qinglong Cauldron really was. Although he had already refined it, he had never figured out the true purpose of the Qinglong Cauldron.
He only knew it could unravel certain Restriction Arrays, but not all. For example, the Restriction Array at the Divine Sect Mansion—Jiang Feng had tried using the Qinglong Cauldron to crack it, but it turned out to be less straightforward than simply using the Three-legged Body Technique.
Now that his cultivation had advanced, Jiang Feng wanted to see if he could unlock other skills of the Qinglong Cauldron.
The Qinglong Cauldron hovered above his palm.
A faint golden light appeared around the little cauldron, with dragon-shaped phantoms circling it.
Jiang Feng tried to commune with the Qinglong Cauldron using his consciousness, intending for it to merge into his body like the Dragon Bone Bow, fusing with his mind.
"Wong!"
As his consciousness deepened.
The Qinglong Cauldron that had been floating above his hand suddenly vanished. In the next instant, in Jiang Feng’s Sea of Consciousness, a shadow of the Qinglong Cauldron appeared—it was extremely ethereal, not yet as solid as the Dragon Bone Bow.
Jiang Feng’s expression brightened with delight.
With a thought, the Qinglong Cauldron returned to his palm.
"This dragon-shaped phantom?"
He was attracted by the dragon-shaped phantoms around the cauldron, his mind exploring deeper in an attempt to understand and control them.
"Aowu!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as his mind touched the dragon-shaped phantoms around the cauldron, a dragon’s roar that struck directly at his soul resounded.
"Bang!"
Jiang Feng toppled headfirst.
And blacked out on the spot.
The Qinglong Cauldron disappeared from his palm and entered his Sea of Consciousness, its shadow now even more insubstantial than before.
Jiang Feng’s head struck the ground, blood oozing from his nose.
His aura weakened rapidly, as if he’d suffered a fatal blow.
It looked like he was about to die.
The faint golden light on the Qinglong Cauldron spread out from Jiang Feng’s Sea of Consciousness, enveloping his body.
"Aowu!"
A gentle dragon’s roar echoed in Jiang Feng’s mind.
Jiang Feng’s weak aura recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Three days later.
Jiang Feng awoke from his coma.
"What happened to me?"
He quickly got up.
He felt something stuck to his face. When he reached up to touch it, he realized it was dried blood.
"Was I backlashed by the Qinglong Cauldron?"
"What the hell, it actually dares to bite back at its master."
Jiang Feng mulled it over and remembered it was the dragon’s roar from the cauldron that had knocked him out, that spinning and hollowed-out sensation was really not pleasant.
He summoned the Qinglong Cauldron again.
"This golden light..."
He noticed that the thin layer of golden light that used to appear on the Qinglong Cauldron was now even paler, and the dragon-shaped phantoms surrounding it were fainter as well.
"Damn it, has the Qinglong Cauldron’s power weakened because of me?"
Jiang Feng felt a little worried.
He hadn’t left yet, and if the Qinglong Cauldron’s power had taken a hit, how was he supposed to deal with the Divine Sect Saintess?
"Investigating the Qinglong Cauldron will have to wait for the right opportunity. For now, the top priority is finding a way to ditch the people outside."
"I wonder how long I was unconscious?"
"Better check my Fortune Point first."
Fortune: 20117
With a rise in strength, becoming a Sixth-Layer Qi Condensation Cultivator, the external threats from outside the mansion were seriously lessened.
Fortune Points had also jumped from just over two thousand a day to more than three thousand.
"Was I unconscious for five days?"
Jiang Feng did the math in his head.
"Forget it, who cares how many days I was out. As long as I stay here, the Fortune Points keep rolling in—doesn’t matter if I stay till the end of time."
Jiang Feng had no intention of going out.
He knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If he left the Divine Sect Mansion and shook off the Divine Sect Saintess and the others, it wouldn’t be so easy to get thousands of Fortune Points a day like this again.
He was perfectly clear on this.
The reason he could gain Fortune Points everyday while hiding in the Divine Sect Mansion was because the danger outside still existed—every extra day he hid was another day of dodging danger, another day’s worth of Fortune Points.
He hadn’t had a stretch of daily Fortune Points like this in ages, and now it was more than three thousand a day.
Back when he worked in Zhenbei Prison, diligently minding his duties and making sure his subordinates didn’t stir up trouble, he was lucky to scrape together a hundred or so Fortune Points a day.
Now it’s over three thousand daily—where else could he get that?
Jiang Feng even wished the Divine Sect Saintess would keep camping outside the mansion forever. Otherwise, once they left and the threat disappeared, how would his Fortune Points keep growing?
"Hope I can use this chance to bring both the Flame Saber and Wind Control up to the Great Perfection Realm."
Jiang Feng said with anticipation.
Then he took out the Red Book he’d gotten together with the Dragon Bone Bow. Last time, just opening it for a glance nearly blinded him.
With nothing better to do, Jiang Feng thought of checking out the book again for any secrets.
But with the last incident in mind, he didn’t dare open it and look directly at its pages.
