Catwoman.
Master of Fist.
The two should originally have no connection. Itâs known that the Cat Race ekes out a living in the dangerous Abyss, living day to day, their courage long eroded by danger and pressure.
Yet a Master of Fist is a symbol of courage and strength.
Achieving the rank of Master of Fist is incredibly difficult. The first step is to give up all armor and weapons.
Masters of Fist firmly believe all external forces are illusions. Instead of spending time searching for armor and weapons, itâs better to refine oneâs own body.
The flesh is the armor.
The fist is the weapon.
Without fear, without dread.
To reach this realm, strength is not important. The fundamental reason for success is a strong heart.
These people refine their Martial Dao with courage, boasting powerful willpower. No matter how formidable the enemy, they feel no fear, and even more terrifying, at this realm, they can ignore the might of a Dragon.
Dragon!
Overlord!
No matter the plane, there are legends of such creatures. In the Abyss, Giant Dragons also reside, occupying plains or mountains. In their eyes, ferocious Demons arenât much stronger than ants.
Dragonâs Might.
Under such oppression, even some Demon Lords lack the courage to fight, but a Master of Fist can confront them directly, utterly unaffected.
Masters of Fist are extremely rare, even in the Abyss, itâs not easy to encounter one.
And now...
The Catwoman before him broke through this taboo. Even though sheâs only at Silver Level, she possesses a heart as steadfast as iron.
The contrast is too extreme.
Itâs like an eagle flying out of a chicken coop, utterly inconceivable!
Chen Feng gazed at the Catwoman with suspicion. Though she was restrained, her eyes remained untamed, like a beastâs.
A scorching aura condensed above Chen Fengâs head. In an instant, a magnificent mark spread over his body. Not only that, but two small, black horns grew on either side of his head.
Flame Demon transformation.
Chen Feng tightened his grip, his tone turning as harsh as the sea and the abyss: "Yield or not?"
Blazing Demon!
The elite among Demons.
These beings are like royal descendants in human terms, innately possessing great power. Their chances of ascending to legendary lord status are multiple times that of other Demons.
High-tier Demon!
Giant Dragons are merely legendary beings, whereas Blazing Demons are commonly seen executioners in the Abyss. In the homes of these High-tier Demons, they keep some beast-like Cat Race people.
Living on all fours like livestock, until their thoughts become fully enslaved, purely becoming a tool of entertainment. When their masters tire of them, theyâre discarded like garbage, left to live or die on their own.
Seeing Chen Fengâs transformation, the Catwoman froze momentarily. She couldnât have imagined encountering a High-tier Demon here; though the appearance is a bit strange, the aura doesnât lie. Itâs the aura of a Blazing Demon, indeed a High-tier Demon!
However, her daze lasted only a few seconds before clarity returned. Clutched tightly by the throat, her face turned pale, yet her eyes held no fear as she struggled and said, "Flora knows no fear... Flora... will protect her people... Flora... will return to the embrace of the Goddess..."
Her voice was pleasant. Even restrained, it resonated with defiance and stubbornness.
Chen Feng actually understood what she was saying!
This communication was not like the previous spiritual exchange with the Dark Elf but real language communication.
Is it because of the Demon Horn?
The Demon Horn possesses powerful Perception Ability, giving Chen Feng the ability to translate languages.
Flora.
Her name is Flora!
Through their earlier exchange, Chen Feng gleaned some information.
Return to the embrace of the Goddess. The Divine Spirit she speaks of, could it be Charice?
In the Abyss, every creature has its Evil God to worship. The Cat and Dance Goddess is the faith of the Cat Race people.
Charice is an enchantingly beautiful goddess. Itâs said her voice resembles the low purr of a contented cat, making all who hear her speak feel like theyâve been caressed by the softest fur or velvet.
Yet she is a frivolous and fickle God, rarely can anyone truly understand her innermost thoughts. Her personality is as unique, independent, and pleasure-loving as a cat, constantly grooming her appearance to maintain a charming allure.
She has a catâs head yet is a voluptuous human female.
Charice is not unknown. She enjoys teasing handsome men, irresistibly engaging everyone she meets in discussions of pleasure. However, once her passion subsides, Charice quickly grows bored and sets off in search of new thrills.
This is a highly irresponsible Divine Spirit.
Only considering her own pleasures, rarely caring about the lives of her Believers. Outside of the loyal Cat Race, only bards and hedonistsâsuch riffraffâwould worship her.
Chariceâs teaching is that life should be about experiencing every pleasure!
Under such teachings, she even organizes unique pleasure gatherings at specific times, where countless beauties and handsome men gather, unashamed and without regard to ethics, immersed in the most primal joy.
This unorthodox goddess astonishingly has a Master of Fist as a Believerâthis is an enormous irony.
Beyond her name and her goddess, Flora mentioned keywords: protect her people...
Courage comes in many forms.
Whether itâs to overcome fear, to pursue desires, or to protect something.
Itâs the power of protection that bestowed boundless courage upon the Catwoman, allowing her, a mere weakling of the Cat Race, to become a resolute Master of Fist.
Protection.
This is the source of her strength.
Chen Fengâs mind worked quickly. Within less than a minute, he had fully grasped Floraâs thoughts. To tame her, perhaps one could start with her people.
Cat Race people.
Timid, cowardly, they havenât even their own homeland in the Abyss. Regarding food, theyâre in extreme shortage. In such an environment, some elder Cat Race would even leave home to avoid wasting food.
Danger lurks everywhere in the Abyss. Once separated from their people, itâs almost certain death...
Food.
This is a breakthrough!
