Accompanied by a resounding roar, the hulking beast in front of Xiao Heng slowly diminished in size, eventually reverting back to Ye Feipeng’s original form.

The chubby lad twisted his neck around, causing a series of cracks to sound from his bones.

“Xiao Xiao, what do you think of my method?” Ye Feipeng asked with a smug smile.

Xiao Heng was not upset about his defeat, but rather curiously looked at Ye Feipeng and started touching and pinching him randomly. “Pudgy one,” he said, “what kind of Gold Core have you formed? As a human, how can you change to be like a real Exotic Beast? I thought you had reached your limit with the wings you had before, but I never expected you could go even further!”

Ye Feipeng didn’t stop Xiao Heng from touching him all over. He tilted his head back, an air of arrogance about him.

He did not answer Xiao Heng’s questions directly. Instead, he cocked his head and said, “The power of the Holy Beast Kunpeng is indeed extraordinary. So, are you envious?”

“This time, I awakened a portion of my bloodline power and from the ancient memories, I comprehended another Divine Technique.”

“[Transfer Blood Lineage], I can separate a portion of the Kunpeng Essence Blood within my body and give it to someone else. After absorption, the recipient can also inherit some of the Kunpeng’s Divine Techniques. Meanwhile, my own abilities won’t be affected.”

“Just like what the Kunpeng did for my ancestor in the past.”

“Would you like to give it a try?”

Ye Feipeng enticingly added, “With your current Four-Law Golden Dan realm, if you gain Kunpeng Essence Blood, your strength might surpass mine in no time. Are you really not going to consider it?”

“Holy Beast Kunpeng?” Xiao Heng’s eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation. Ye Feipeng used to refer to himself as a ‘Demonic Beast’ and ‘Exotic Beast’. How did he change his tune to ‘Holy Beast’ during their time apart?

Xiao Heng glanced at Ye Feipeng and calmly declined, “Ha-ha. That’s okay. Your way of fighting is too brutal for me. I prefer my Doctrine of the Void. It’s cooler and more suited to my style.”

Seeing Xiao Heng’s response, Ye Feipeng looked at him for a long while before deciding not to press the matter.

“By the way, what do you make of the Skull Senior’s warning?” After a moment of silence, Xiao Heng asked abruptly.

Not long ago, the long-sleeping Skull Senior suddenly awoke. After leaving a warning that read, “Run, leave the Misthaven Ocean!”, it went back to sleep.

Xiao Heng was left feeling somewhat baffled.

Being unfamiliar with what the Skull Senior had predicted, but out of trust, Xiao Heng planned to lead the group away from the Misthaven Ocean to seek refuge in Shilin State, the closest place for refuge.

Ye Feipeng’s eyes gleamed, thinking to himself, “This old thing really knows some tricks, sensing the approaching Crimson Blaze Ocean event. However…”

With a brief hesitation, the chubby lad’s gaze turned unwavering.

“The advent of the Crimson Flame signifies a calamity to most people, but for me, it’s a fortune.”

“I’ve waited for so many years just for this moment. How could I possibly choose to give it up so easily.”

With that thought in mind, he said calmly, “Despite the Skull Senior’s mysterious powers, he has been severely wounded and his capabilities greatly discounted. Therefore, not every word he says should be taken seriously. I believe it is just his ungrounded worry.”

“We’ve been in the Misthaven Ocean for all these years without incident. What could possibly go wrong.”

Seeing Ye Feipeng’s indifference, Xiao Heng became even more suspicious.

Based on Xiao Heng’s understanding of the chubby lad, if there was any uncertain danger in the past, Ye Feipeng would rather believe it exists than not and choose to run at the first sign of trouble.

He would never react so casually, completely ignoring the looming crisis as he was now.

Was it because his strength had increased, causing his mentality to inflate? Or was it the influence of this Kunpeng Essence Blood?

Xiao Heng, who had a vague feeling that something was wrong, did not reprimand him directly but showed an expression that said, “You make a great point. I’ll think it over.”

The two chatted casually for a little while longer before Xiao Heng hurriedly bid him farewell.

Watching Xiao Heng retreat, Ye Feipeng wore a gloomy expression.

“Forget it, these bonds are only mortal ties after all. It would be better to sever it now and avoid being accused of disregarding old bonds after I attain Unity-Path.”

Ye Feipeng snorted coldly, looking up at the sky with a flash of crimson in his eyes.

“The destiny is in me! The Unity-Path must succeed!”

The black wings spread out behind him. With a slight flutter, Ye Feipeng’s figure disappeared instantly.

Back on the deserted island, Xiao Heng was in the middle of a conversation with Su Changyu. He sensed Ye Feipeng’s departure and watched him from afar. His expression slightly perplexed.

“Since Skull Senior has given instructions, it should not be baseless. To be cautious, we should evacuate the Misthaven Ocean.” Su Changyu nodded in agreement with Xiao Heng’s decision.

Initially, eight others arrived with them from the dimensional rift to the Immortal Cultivation World.

Li Fan had randomly picked them out just for show.

Eighteen years had passed, some of them fell to sickness and unhappily passed away.

Others were incapable of dispersing the miasma in their bodies, abandoned their cultivation, and not being able to tolerate the hardships of the deserted island, they begged Xiao Heng to send them to the nearby mortal islands to live their remaining lives.

Only one man and one woman remained from the original group of seven. With great difficulty, they managed to enter the Energy Refining Stage.

The two, having spent so many years together, fell in love, and married, recently giving birth to a son named Han Wuyou.

Together with the Yin sisters, they were the only inhabitants of the deserted island.

The flying boat on the island was barely operational which was good enough for transportation, making the move manageable.

However…

Xiao Heng furrowed his brow.

“The two little girls, Yueting and Yuzhen, have been busy with something lately. They’ve been mysteriously secretive and only gave vague replies to my messages.”

“I’ll go check on them and bring them over.”

Luckily, the two sisters knew what was important and had revealed their location which wasn’t too hard to get to.

Not too far from the deserted island, Xiao Heng reached the sisters’ location after seven days.

To Xiao Heng’s surprise, there was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator together with the sisters.

The man’s head was lowered and his eyes darted around shadily. He didn’t seem like a trustworthy person at all.

Yin Yueting was frowning at the moment and looked unhappy. “Zhao Erbao, how much more do you need to collect to sort out the so-called Dao Rhyme?”

“My sister and I worked so hard for such a long time to bring back loads of Antiques. And you’re telling me only this handful is useful? You’re not playing me, are you?”

Zhao Erbao quickly forced a smile. “Miss, how could I dare to? The Dao Rhyme Antiques are naturally scarce to begin with. It’s amazing that you two could find so many in such a short period.”

“Even if you gave me ten times my courage, I wouldn’t dare to deceive you!”

“Dao Rhyme Antiques?” Xiao Heng was slightly squinting his eyes as he listened to their conversation.

It wasn’t until Yin Yuzhen transmitted a message explaining the situation that he understood what was going on.
