Chapter 654: Chapter 378: Qi of the Sijiu Heaven_2
After all, if they knew that this palace contained a chance for one to become a god, these guys would probably risk their lives to keep him away from here.
“I…”
Yun Chenglu was speechless. In fact, she still didn’t fully understand what was happening. It seemed that the other party had obtained the inheritance left by their ancestors.
But here lies the problem. Since it was an inheritance left by the ancestors, why couldn’t their direct descendants obtain it, while this unrelated member of the Human Race could?
“I don’t know.”
Upon seeing the postures of these women, Feng Qing’an realized that his questioning was futile. He waved his hand casually, creating a force from a gust of wind that was in line with his will, sending the Feather people flying out of the palace.
“I’ll be retreating here for a while. Make sure to not disturb me.”
Leaving these words behind, the pure white palace doors slowly closed amid a rumbling noise, leaving behind a group of Feather people with bewildered looks on their faces outside the palace.
“What in the world is going on?”
“Can’t you see? Our ancestors left us their inheritance, but we haven’t even detected it. This person of the Human Race, however, came in and seized it. And now, we, the legitimate inheritors, stand here dumbfounded.”
“What should we do now?”
“This is our city, our kingdom!”
“Start the protection spell, to capture this…”
“Are you all crazy? Instead of trying to seize the opportunity that isn’t ours, why not think about how to deal with the Kun Group outside?
If we can’t provide an explanation soon, our floating island will fall from the sky, and our race will be severely wounded, or even disappear.”
Although Yun Chenglu was regretful that the opportunity hidden in their core area had been seized by an outsider, her main concern still remained the restless Kun Group. If they can’t be pacified in time, their homeland will fall from the sky with just one dash from the Kun Group.
“Right, the Kun beasts!”
“What should we do?”
“Why must we consider him an enemy? Why not acknowledge our forefathers and return to our roots?”
Suddenly, a Feather person spoke up, surprising everyone around and attracting the attention of all the Feather people. Even Yun Chenglu, who was prepared and wary of the Kun Group’s attack, looked over.
“Acknowledge our forefathers and return to our roots?”
The Feather person repeated, looking at her kin with incomprehension.
“Yes, we’ve seen the power he holds, haven’t we? Since he’s already taken the opportunity from our ancestral land and we can’t take it back, we don’t have the capability.”
The Feather person under the focus of his kin was calm. His thoughts became clearer than ever as he felt this was the correct path.
Choosing to be the enemy is undoubtedly a path to self-destruction, the stupidest choice. If we cannot be enemies, we shall choose to be friends, or simply attach ourselves to him.
Under the influence of their ancestors, he has obtained a more pure and ancient bloodline than their Qiong Yu tribe.
With such a connection, it’s not a problem to acknowledge him as the ancestor as long as he accepts it.
Perhaps their Qiong Yu tribe will thrive again because of this, and won’t decline and disappear in the long run, leaving no trace behind.
“Since we can’t take it back, you want us to acknowledge him as our ancestor?”
“Why not?”
The Feather person who looked at the problem from a new angle and put forth suggestions was righteous.
“Didn’t you see his appearance just now? He’s no different from us now; his bloodline is purer.”
“Just because his bloodline is purer, we have to acknowledge him as an ancestor?”
“Isn’t that enough? You know the state to which the bloodline of our race has deteriorated.”
“That does seem to make some sense.”
“But how are we supposed to obtain this bloodline from your respected self?”
“Well, naturally…”
The Feather People’s gazes naturally fell onto Yun Chenglu, blush crept onto the face of this young feather girl, as fair as snow with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, long green hair cascading down like a waterfall, and a graceful figure. It seemed as though she just walked out of a fairy tale, her cheeks, appearing as though they were carved from mutton fat jade, were tinted a faint red.
“What are you all looking at me for, what does this have to do with me?”
“Ahem!”
“A little sacrifice is necessary for the survival of our race!”
“In my opinion, this might be considered a fortuitous opportunity.”
“Your Highness, you should get ready and dress up.”
“Dress up?”
Yun Chenglu was taken aback. She never would have thought that her clansmen, who previously were expressing righteous indignation, would have such a drastic change in demeanor just based on a few words.
However, when she saw the Kun Group surrounding the floating island, she suddenly realized. Perhaps if they lower their stance and proactively connect with this power, then it would no longer be a threat to their race, but a boon.
Feng Qing’an, unaware of the Feather People’s thought process outside the palace, sat cross-legged in the middle of the palace after driving the true owners out. He carefully sensed and refined the Qi of the Nine Heavens that poured into his body.
Strictly speaking, this wasn’t pure Qi of the Nine Heavens, but only a fraction, about two or three out of a thousand parts.
Even so, it was a great boost to Feng Qing’an. Under the nourishment of the Qi of Nine Heavens, he could feel an unprecedented transformation in his spirit and vitality.
Of course, the most direct and obvious change was in his Soul Contract, the thirteenth soul artifact that was about to take shape had suddenly solidified, and the fourteenth Soul Contract was rapidly forming at a visible pace. In a blink of an eye, he reached the fifteenth Soul Contract.
“It’s close, so close, just a bit more!”
The all-round transformation and growth in his spirit and vitality made Feng Qing’an somewhat excited. Although this opportunity came in a sudden and inexplicable way, but regardless of how, he might as well take advantage of it.
Besides, this opportunity didn’t give him a chance to refuse, it forcefully entered his body with a domineering attitude and changed him.
Even if there were changes to his body, Feng Qing’an didn’t worry too much. What was this compared to when he performed the Mind Meld and his head transformed into that of the Black Mountain?
Practitioners shouldn’t care too much about external appearances, as they can be changed at any time.
Boom!
Accompanied by the rise of a deep soul power glowing with an almost dark purple light, a natural smile appeared on Feng Qing’an’s face.
A sense of flawless fulfillment rose from his heart. Even though he knew he hadn’t thoroughly completed the Beast King’s training, he still felt a sense of satisfaction.
Fifteen Soul Contracts.
He had essentially completed the Beast King’s training. If he could contract another spirit with the potential or combat power of a monarch level, he would receive more benefits and undergo another transformation.
To be honest, Feng Qing’an was looking forward to it.
Regarding contracting a monarch-level spirit, it was not a difficult task for him at present. If he didn’t pick, he could even draw in a Feather Person from outside.
Even that Feather girl would suffice. Of course, the old Feather Person who invited herself into his Cave Sky to admire the scenery was also an option.
However, Feng Qing’an wasn’t interested in these elderly folks, even though he could enhance their potential and give them a chance to go further, he didn’t see the need.
“Quite lively despite being on in years.”
A satisfied Feng Qing’an spared a glance at the Cave Sky and couldn’t help but shake his head.
What a disaster!
