Chapter 958: Chapter 58: Awakening of Insects (Part 2)

After determining his target, Li Fei immediately got up to make a few phone calls, trying to locate Jiang Ye.

After finishing the calls, he sat down again and began to study another thing—

Feeding Demon Beast.

Demonic Martial Artists directly plunder another’s Implants, which seems quick, but it is very risky.

Because the Implant was not cultivated within one’s own body, there would be a clear ‘rejection response’ with one’s own body.

But this wasn’t an issue for Li Fei.

No matter how intense the ‘rejection response’, he could forcibly overcome it with the Myriad Blood Pearl.

If it doesn’t work, he could just take medicine to solve it.

It’s just that plundering others’ Implants would require harming innocent lives, which goes against Li Fei’s original intentions; he had never considered Demon Path Cultivation before.

But now, upon suddenly realizing the existence of ‘Feeding Demon Beast’, Li Fei was immediately tempted.

Enhancing Lifebound Magic Items requires not only an Implant but also other materials, so Feeding Demon Beast is only applicable to Martial Arts.

“If I use Feeding Demon Beast, wouldn’t my speed in Martial Arts Cultivation be faster?”

Li Fei thought to himself.

From the Dragon Tiger Sect, one can obtain the cultivation method of the [Dragon Elephant] Divine Skill and Implant. Since the Lu Family can buy and sell Feeding Demon Beasts, it means they have the relevant technology.

Li Fei could ask Lu Wenya for these techniques.

With the Implant, the technology, and Li Fei himself having the Exotic Beast Breeding Farm, he already possesses the conditions to cultivate Feeding Demon Beast.

“Enhancing the Flying Sword Body, adopting Magic Artifacts-type Implants, and using Feeding Demon Beast to cultivate Martial Arts-type Implants, once the Magic Artifacts-type Divine Skills are refined, I can immediately incorporate the Martial Arts-type Implants.”

Li Fei secretly thought.

The only question is how long the cultivation time for Feeding Demon Beast would take; if it takes too long, then his own cultivation speed would be faster.

Moreover, he doesn’t understand Demon Martial Arts enough and cannot make a rash decision.

Thinking of this, Li Fei decided to go and talk to Shi Caiming.

“Principal, there are some things I’d like to ask for your advice.”

After finding Shi Caiming, Li Fei shared his thoughts with him.

After listening to his ideas, Shi Caiming’s expression was serious:

“Demon Path Cultivation, do you think it’s just the issue of a serious rejection reaction?”

Looking at Shi Caiming’s demeanor, Li Fei was taken aback.

It was the first time he had seen Shi Caiming speak to him so seriously.

“Martial Arts Cultivation starts with the help of external things, but as the Realm improves, a Martial Artist gradually deeply integrates with the Implant, making it truly a part of oneself. Only by doing so can the Innate Qi, Force, Extraordinary Ability, and even Divine Skills born from the Implant be truly mastered by a Martial Artist.”

Shi Caiming looked at Li Fei, his expression solemn:

“Without starting from zero, bit by bit, deeply integrating with the Implant, a Martial Artist’s Realm is just a castle in the air! Demonic Martial Artists plundering others’ Implants directly may seem like a Step into the Sky, but in reality, they are choosing a narrow path!”

You may think that by cultivating the Demon Path you can reach the Peak, but among the ‘Three Demons’, the two demonic martial artists can’t defeat any one of the ‘Seven Martial Saints’.

At the same Realm, Demon Martial Artists’ mastery over Innate Qi, Force, Extraordinary Abilities, and even Divine Skills, Martial Arts Domain is far inferior to those who cultivate normally.

Because of this, their difficulty in achieving Breakthrough is tremendously high, and so are the risks.”

Li Fei nodded earnestly, understanding the drawbacks of Demon Path Cultivation.

“Xiao Fei, you’re a bit too impatient for instant success.”

Shi Caiming looked at Li Fei, “I know you are eager for revenge, but some matters cannot be rushed.”

“…”

Li Fei fell silent.

He suddenly wanted to try Feeding Demon Beast not only because he didn’t understand the Demon Path but also because he was indeed impatient.

Overthrowing Lu Wenzheng is already certain, but the enmity with Hao Yi and Shangguan Xiao involves more than just Lu Wenzheng.

The person Li Fei cares about the most and wants to kill the most is Xu Jing!

But Xu Jing is a Great Grandmaster.

It’s impossible to assassinate a Great Grandmaster through normal means.

Even if Xu Jing loses his official position and his status as a university president, as long as he retains his Great Grandmaster combat power and doesn’t publicly rebel, he always has the chance to rise again.

The only way Li Fei can think of to avenge is to challenge him head-on!

But with his current combat power, he can’t achieve that.

So he’s very eager to become stronger quickly.

“Xiao Fei.”

Shi Caiming looked at Li Fei, speaking earnestly:

“In this world, some shortcuts cannot be taken.”

Li Fei was silent for a moment, then nodded heavily:

“I understand, thank you, Principal.”

…

Provincial City of Feng Province, Hongyi University.

In a secret chamber built underground, Xu Jing was in seclusion cultivation.

After devouring Jiang Ye’s [Evil God] with the [Black Water] Divine Skill, he immediately returned to the secret chamber at Hongyi University to begin his seclusion.

In just over ten days, he completely finished the devouring of the Divine Skill.

This underground secret chamber is very large, with an underground lake.

Xu Jing sat cross-legged on the stone platform in the center of the lake, unfurling his Martial Arts Domain.

A large patch of dense fog appeared out of thin air, spreading over the lake.

The water surface began to boil, with many bubbles appearing, then constantly exploding.

The mist churned, and black sludge surged under the water, as if a black giant python lurked within.

Faint green lights appeared in the dense fog, like clusters of ghostly flames.

As these ghostly flames appeared, the dense fog began to spread in all directions.

The fog’s range continued to spread to about seven hundred meters in diameter, then gradually slowed down, seemingly reaching its limit.

On the stone platform, Xu Jing frowned, somewhat unwilling, wanting to continue expanding his Martial Arts Domain.

But as he exerted more force, the dense fog suddenly shook violently.

“Pfft—”

Suddenly, Xu Jing spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, immediately retracting his Martial Arts Domain.

His eyes showed anger as he slammed a heavy palm onto the stone platform.

Bang bang bang—

A series of water columns exploded!

Initially, his breakthrough was not perfect, resulting in significant aftereffects on the Martial Arts Domain, unable to be maintained for long.

He naturally begrudged becoming the weakest Great Grandmaster in history, so he continued to cooperate with Lu Wenzheng, seeking to devour new divine skills.

Although he successfully devoured the Evil God, which was compatible with his Martial Arts Domain, the results were not ideal.

The intensity of the Martial Arts Domain was indeed enhanced, but Xu Jing’s control over the Evil God was far from expected.

Instead, because of the addition of a new divine skill, his control was inadequate, causing the Martial Arts Domain to become even more unstable, with a shorter maintainable time than before!

Xu Jing did not believe this was his problem and attributed it all to heart demons.

“Li Fei!!!!!!”

In the underground secret chamber, Xu Jing roared with extreme anger.

More than an hour later, Xu Jing appeared calm in the principal’s office.

He picked up the microphone and dialed a number:

“This is Xu Jing.”

“Closed-door training is over? How are you feeling?”

Lu Wenzheng’s voice came from the other end of the line.

“Feeling good.”

Xu Jing said so.

“Congratulations!”

“We can talk again about what you mentioned before.”

“…Alright, come to my residence, I’ll wait for you.”

On the other end of the phone, Lu Wenzheng’s tone showed some fluctuation.

After hanging up, Xu Jing’s gaze was deep.

Li Fei tolerated him for a few years, and how could he not have tolerated Li Fei for a few years?

If devouring others’ divine skills through Black Water could solve the problem of his Martial Arts Domain.

Then he wouldn’t mind continuing to lurk in the shadows, gradually strengthening himself.

But now, the path forward was already blocked!

Xu Jing came to the window and looked in the direction of Datong Prefecture.

He looked for a long, long time.

….

March 5th.

Feng Province, Qingli Prefecture.

The Lu Family Chamber of Commerce held a shareholder meeting today.

Qingli Prefecture is where the ancestral residence of the Lu Family is located, also the foundation of the Lu Family.

The Lu Family Chamber of Commerce has a history of several hundred years in Qingli Prefecture and occupies a leading position in almost every industry in Qingli Prefecture!

Not only that, the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce’s weaving, spices, and tea business are spread nationwide!

In the twenty-three provinces of the Da Lan Dynasty, the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce has its own companies, factories, and shops.

Without a doubt, it is a giant in the business world, also the Lu Family’s money bag.

Lu Wenzheng, as the Family Head of the Lu Family, also served as the president of the Lu Family Chamber of Commerce, holding the most shares.

But today at this impromptu shareholder meeting, Lu Wenzheng did not attend in person, only sending a representative.

In the spacious conference room, a dozen chamber of commerce shareholders or their representatives sat together.

An elderly man with glasses and a stern demeanor glanced around, stood up, and said word by word:

“Everyone is here, let me announce today’s agenda—”

“After discussions among multiple shareholders, we have decided to dismiss Lu Wenzheng from the presidency of the chamber of commerce!”
