Star Dragon God
Duan Huan was struggling hard to suppress something, and at that moment, a familiar voice reached his ears.
"Damn it, using my things to engage in such dark and underhanded activities."
Duan Huan turned sharply and found that his guess was correct; it was Huo Feng.
At this time, Huo Feng's massive body had already caused debris to fly around the cave. Huo Feng noticed that deeper inside, there were rows of stone coffins, which were uncovered, with people lying quietly inside them.
Huo Feng knew that these individuals had likely been turned into puppets like Duan Chongyang by Duan Huan.
Looking again at the Star Spirit Fragment in front of Duan Huan, Huo Feng let out an angry "Dragon Roar," the sound echoing throughout the entire Xiaoyao Fortress. The cave could not withstand the turbulence of this sound wave and began to slowly collapse.
Seeing this, Duan Huan, although extremely angry at Huo Feng for destroying the place, did not lose his composure. His entire body was enveloped in yellow Origin Force, with countless faint whirlpools swirling around him.
At that moment, the black souls floating in the cold storage all surged toward the whirlpools of Origin Force on Duan Huan, and in an instant, they were all absorbed into his body.
Duan Huan's body began to undergo various strange transformations, but it was evident that his aura had become exceptionally terrifying and chaotic; this frightening presence was something even Huo Feng found hard to contend with.
Huo Feng looked at Zhao Alliance Leader, asking in confusion, "Master, what is happening to him? Why is he like this?"
Zhao Alliance Leader gazed at Duan Chongyang, his expression slightly bewildered. He slowly said, "This person seems to have been subjected to 'Soul Transfer,' a long-lost technique. Moreover, he possesses abilities from the predecessor of Xiaoyao Fortress, which I find quite strange."
Huo Feng was left puzzled by Zhao Alliance Leader's words; what was "Soul Transfer"? What did it mean for him to have abilities from the predecessor of Xiaoyao Fortress? It completely confused him.
At this moment, Zhao Alliance Leader continued, "When Xiaoyao Fortress eliminated the previous power, that faction was wiped out overnight by their enemies. Duan Huan's predecessor, Duan Lie, was a high elder of that faction. Therefore, he abolished that faction, renamed it Xiaoyao Fortress, and publicly declared that they would not continue any previous rules or practices; they would have no further ties with that faction."
"Now that I think about it, things were not as they seemed. It is likely that at that time, Duan Lie conspired against them and secretly orchestrated their destruction. I suspect the Duan Family must have some special means to extract their souls and preserve them externally, then used their 'Soul Transfer' to create puppets."
"Fortunately, at that time, Medicine God had extensive connections. His records mentioned methods to counteract their near-immortal techniques known as Combat Techniques; otherwise, we would have truly been helpless against him."
Just as Zhao Alliance Leader finished speaking, Duan Chongyang suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed onto the ground, convulsing uncontrollably. At that moment, a shadowy figure floated out from within his body.
The shadow gradually became clearer, taking on the appearance of a gaunt old man. The old man looked at Huo Feng and Zhao Alliance Leader, while they cautiously observed the movements of this Ethereal Old Man.
At that moment, the Ethereal Old Man suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse as he said, "Thank you for freeing me."
Then, filled with regret and unwillingness, the old man continued, "But at that time, the souls of my kin were still being tormented by those Bastards. I let them down by trusting that Bastard Duan Lie. You must remember, never enter that forbidden place; if you go there, you will surely not return."
Just as Huo Feng was about to ask about the forbidden place, the old man's voice grew fainter, and his figure became increasingly ethereal until he completely vanished.
Huo Feng and the others turned their attention back to Duan Chongyang. At that moment, Duan Chongyang seemed to have transformed into a different person; his hair and beard were white, and his face was covered in wrinkles, resembling tree bark.
He crawled aimlessly on the ground in one direction, his gaze vacant, occasionally letting out a silly laugh.
Huo Feng approached Duan Chongyang and blocked his path. Looking at the dazed Duan Chongyang who was smiling foolishly at him, Huo Feng pointed to himself and asked, "Duan Chongyang, do you remember who I am?"
Duan Chongyang remained on the ground, staring at Huo Feng with a silly grin. Seeing Duan Chongyang's aged and wrinkled face up close filled Huo Feng with a sense of desolation.
After all, they had arrived here together. Thinking of how Duan Chongyang once commanded respect and fear but had now fallen into such a miserable state made Huo Feng even more determined; only by possessing absolute power could one avoid being toyed with or trampled upon by others.
At this moment, Zhao Alliance Leader walked over to Huo Feng and said, "He shouldn't have much time left. Normally, once the Soul Transfer is lifted, the host body is doomed to die."
Looking at Duan Chongyang's pitiful state now, Huo Feng felt a pang of compassion. He turned away and pointed his right hand at Duan Chongyang from behind.
"Star Blade."
A silver-white Origin Force Starlight Blade instantly pierced into Duan Chongyang's forehead, leaving a bloody hole on his brow.
Only then did Huo Feng glance in the direction where Duan Huan had gone, realizing that Duan Huan was already gone. At that moment, Zhao Alliance Leader also noticed that Rofu was missing and expressed concern, saying, "That child Rofu wouldn’t have gone off alone to chase after Duan Huan, would he? I hope he doesn't act impulsively."
Zhao Alliance Leader then addressed some members of the Free Alliance who had come along: "Quickly send out signals to gather information on Rofu's whereabouts."
Huo Feng approached the icy surface and summoned Ice Puppet. He then said to Ice, "Ice, I'm leaving Ice Puppet here to help you. You all quickly deal with them and wait for me here."
"Big Brother, where are you going?" Ice asked worriedly as it looked at Huo Feng. It knew that Huo Feng was definitely going to confront Duan Huan alone.
Huo Feng smiled at Ice and replied, "Don't worry; trust me."
Without caring about them anymore, he soared into the air, heading towards Xiaoyao Fortress.
At this moment, Zhao Alliance Leader quickly followed suit, arriving beside Huo Feng, and said with a smile, "What's wrong? You actually left your teacher behind. Do you think I'm holding you back?"
Huo Feng already knew that the forbidden area of Xiaoyao Fortress was quite strange, and this time the shadowy old man had emphasized it again. Huo Feng did not want Zhao Alliance Leader to take risks along with him, but since he had come, Huo Feng knew it would be pointless to stop him. He could only smile and say, "Teacher, let's have a race."
Huo Feng kept Zhao Alliance Leader slightly behind him as they flew to the sky above Xiaoyao Fortress.
Sure enough, Rofu had chased Duan Huan back to Xiaoyao Fortress, and at this moment, Rofu was surrounded by a group of people. However, Huo Feng and Zhao Alliance Leader did not stop to help him; after all, they had not found Duan Huan here, and those people's strength was more than enough for Rofu alone.
At this time, Huo Feng led Zhao Alliance Leader towards the top-level forbidden area. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the entrance of the eleventh floor. At this point, both Huo Feng and Zhao Alliance Leader stopped.
Zhao Alliance Leader looked inside at the black and white scene and couldn't help but frown. He sensed intuitively that this place was not simple; he had never seen such a sight in the forbidden area of Xiaoyao Fortress.
However, Zhao Alliance Leader was very curious about how Huo Feng knew about this place. Just then, Huo Feng suddenly spoke up: "Teacher, I've been inside before. It's very strange; it can control people's minds and has many unknown things. I think I should go in alone while you keep watch outside. What do you think?"
"That won't do! How can a teacher let his disciple take risks? Besides, you're still very young. I'm much older; let me go instead," Zhao Alliance Leader firmly rejected Huo Feng's suggestion.
With no choice left, Huo Feng had to compromise but insisted that both sides needed to make concessions. Huo Feng said, "Then let's go in together. After all, I've been inside before and have some experience. But I need to go first."
After repeated requests from Huo Feng, they finally reached an agreement and proceeded according to his suggestion.
With Huo Feng in front and Zhao Alliance Leader behind, they entered this mysterious forbidden area.
Not long after entering, Huo Feng felt a strong and inexplicable will pressing against his own. He quickly resisted with all his might while also having Vankun assist him from the shadows.
At this moment, Huo Feng's main focus was still on Zhao Alliance Leader as he cautiously led him toward the center of the forbidden area.
About halfway through their journey, Zhao Alliance Leader suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and stumbled almost falling over. Huo Feng immediately supported Zhao Alliance Leader upon seeing that he was nearing his limit. A gentle Origin Force flowed through Huo Feng's hands as he pushed against Zhao Alliance Leader's waist, sending him out of the forbidden area.
Now Huo Feng could finally unleash his full strength and quickly headed towards the altar.
When Huo Feng arrived at the altar, he discovered that a hole had opened in it, with four tiger-shaped statues surrounding the entrance.
Outside, all the black and white plants and rocks seemed to be drawn towards the cave, flowing in either black or white.
Huo Feng tried to slowly approach the cave entrance. When Huo Feng was about five yards away from the four black tiger-shaped statues, the statues moved, turning to face Huo Feng directly.
Seeing this scene, Huo Feng immediately stepped back, taking a defensive stance. At that moment, the four statues charged towards Huo Feng, spewing black flames from their mouths.
Huo Feng was worried about what Duan Huan might be doing inside and didn't dare to hesitate. He pressed his hands down towards the ground.
"Star Domain Clone"
Four black Star Domains trapped the four statues inside, and at that moment, Huo Feng quickly darted into the cave.
As soon as Huo Feng entered, he felt a chilling dark aura. He immediately activated the light from three Star Spirit Fragments on his body to resist this dark energy.
At that moment, deep within the cave, Duan Huan was channeling Origin Force into a silvery fragment. Countless black shadows swirled around him, and suddenly, the White Fragment in front of him shone brightly, giving off a sense of wanting to escape.
Duan Huan's heart jolted; he quickly applied Origin Force to suppress it, but the White Fragment's brilliance only intensified, far exceeding Duan Huan's expectations.
