The Heavenly Dragon's Beginning in the Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 141 Cooperation Achieved, Seal Lifted

Seeing that Chief Wuying readily agreed, Ling Feng smiled and nodded, thus finalizing the matter.

In fact, Ling Feng had his own considerations and plans for making such arrangements.

Despite Taotie being a powerful overlord of demonic beasts, possessing immense strength and even reaching the fourth level of the Refining God Returning to Emptiness realm, Ling Feng was not afraid.

He has now broken through to the eighth level of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, and is only one step away from the Spirit Refining and Returning to Emptiness realm.

As long as he can continue to improve his strength and break through to the Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness realm, Ling Feng believes that he definitely has the strength to fight Taotie.

More importantly, Ling Feng has enough confidence in his own abilities.

The Devouring Demon Art he cultivated should be comparable in devouring power to the Taotie's innate divine power—the power of devouring.

It was this confidence that gave Ling Feng the courage to challenge this formidable opponent.

Now that the matter has been roughly settled, the next step is to discuss the specific details of the operation.

Through his conversation with Wu Ying, Ling Feng learned that the deadline set by the Fishmen for the Witch Clan was six months.

In other words, Ling Feng must eliminate the threat of Taotie within six months, otherwise the Wu Clan will face a huge crisis.

Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news, because even if the Devouring Heaven Demon Art was incredibly powerful, it still took time to improve.

Without enough time, with his current strength, he would naturally find it difficult to deal with Taotie.

However, it seems that everything is still in time, which puts Ling Feng at ease.

After learning the exact location of the Taotie from Wu Ying, Ling Feng left alone with the sealed fragment.

Wu Ying was quite generous, letting Ling Feng take the reward with him beforehand, not worried that he would simply run away with the sword.

Actually, it wasn't that Wu Ying was completely unguarded; rather, he learned from his conversation with Ling Feng that Ling Feng was a man of his word and wouldn't break his promise.

Moreover, he trusted his judgment; as long as he could help Ling Feng get what he wanted, Ling Feng would definitely not go back on his word.

Furthermore, the Witch Clan is at a critical juncture of life and death, and now they have no other choice but to take a gamble.

Now that he had placed all his bets on Ling Feng, he became more open about his actions.

After leaving the Wu Clan's encampment, Ling Feng followed the direction indicated by Wu Ying and sped towards the location of Taotie.

Of course, Ling Feng wouldn't be foolish enough to go looking for trouble with Taotie right now, since he didn't know who would be causing trouble for whom.

Therefore, he decided to first go deep into the mountains to find some ordinary demonic beasts to cultivate with, and strive to break through to the Refining Spirit Returning to Emptiness realm as soon as possible.

After leaving the witch clan's encampment, Ling Feng couldn't wait to pick up the strange sword in his hand and examine it carefully.

However, since the sword was sealed, it didn't look particularly special at the moment.

At this moment, Ling Feng had already left the Wu Clan's encampment, and the surroundings were quiet and deserted.

Therefore, he decided to immediately issue an order to the system to remove the seal on the sword.

"Ding!"

With a crisp notification sound, the system announced:

"The seal on the divine weapon fragments has been lifted."

Ling Feng only felt the sword in his hand tremble slightly, but then it returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

But Ling Feng was not discouraged; he firmly believed that the system would not deceive him.

Since the system has clearly stated that the seal has been lifted, there must be a reason.

Since no changes could be detected from the appearance, Ling Feng decided to try to test it with his true energy.

Sure enough, when he channeled his inner energy into the sword, a miracle occurred.

Suddenly, the sword became clear. The previously blurry sword was now fully visible, as if it had always been there.

Ling Feng carefully examined the sword. Its appearance was very simple and unremarkable, but Ling Feng could feel the powerful force contained within it.

Ling Feng tried to continue channeling his inner energy into the sword. Suddenly, he felt a strange fluctuation emanating from the sword.

To his surprise, he discovered that the fluctuation actually came from the restrictions inside the sword!

Ling Feng was shocked, because he had tried it before. Although the sword looked extraordinary, it did not react when he tried to input his true energy.

And now, this sword actually contains a hidden restriction!

Ling Feng also knew that these restrictions were the marks of divine weapons.

The more restrictions there are, the more powerful the divine weapon will be.

However, Ling Feng has only discovered twelve restrictions within the sword so far, and he can't help but ponder:

"Is this the complete set of restrictions on the sword?"

Ling Feng gripped the sword hilt tightly, feeling the power transmitted from the precious sword.

Although the sword had no fancy functions or special effects, Ling Feng had a strong intuition that as long as he wielded it, he could unleash tremendous power.

This feeling thrilled Ling Feng, and he couldn't wait to try out the true power of this precious sword.

Ling Feng was filled with curiosity and anticipation for the sword, but he was unaware of its true power.

So he decided to try it out himself.

He held his sword and gently swung it forward, instantly sending out a hazy gray sword aura.

The sword energy was extremely fast, shooting out in the blink of an eye.

However, when the sword energy dissipated, it revealed astonishing destructive power.

A chasm a hundred meters long appeared directly in front of Ling Feng, its depth and width astonishing.

This was just Ling Feng doing it casually, without using his full strength. If he had gone all out, the gap might have been even longer and deeper.

Ling Feng stared in astonishment at the scene before him, a surge of excitement welling up within him.

He realized that this sword not only possessed powerful attack capabilities, but could also amplify his own power several times over.

This means that with this sword, his advantage in battle will be greatly enhanced.

Ling Feng excitedly brandished the sword in his hand, feeling the powerful force it brought.

Each swing of the sword unleashed a sharp sword aura that whistled past, as if tearing through the void.

Ling Feng was so fond of the sword that he felt as if he had obtained a priceless treasure.

But he knew that to unleash the sword's full power, he needed to continuously improve his own strength.

Furthermore, he still had to deal with the demon beast overlord Taotie, and with his current Qi Refining to the eighth level of the Divine Transformation realm, he was still somewhat outmatched.

Therefore, he decided to temporarily put aside his research on the sword and focus on cultivation to improve his skills.

Ling Feng sheathed his sword and began searching for a suitable place to cultivate.

Ling Feng traveled swiftly, and after half a day of travel, he finally arrived deep in the mountains and discovered traces of some demonic beasts.

However, since this place is close to the Wu Clan's territory, these monsters are relatively weak and cannot arouse Ling Feng's interest.

After all, given Ling Feng's current strength, these ordinary monsters wouldn't be of much help in improving his power.

So Ling Feng continued deeper into the mountains, and after traveling a considerable distance, he finally encountered some demonic beasts whose strength had reached the seventh or eighth level of the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation realm.

Faced with these powerful demonic beasts, Ling Feng finally showed some interest.

Only demonic beasts that have reached this level of strength can rapidly increase their power.
