I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills
Chapter 706 - 412: Walking into a Trap?Zou Feng certainly hadn’t forgotten that the Snake Demon, Shangguan Rongrong, had pledged her allegiance to him. She had promised to help him find the other members of the Five Poison Creatures.
At the time, she had been supremely confident in her ability to use the Poison Pills from Zou Feng to trade for Scorpion Poison, centipede poison, and toad poison.
The only exception was a Spider Spirit she knew. Because it had become a traitor, defecting to the Tribulation Cultivators, and was already a Golden Core Great Demon, Shangguan Rongrong had frankly admitted there was nothing she could do.
Still, she had promised to help Zou Feng find the Spider Spirit’s current hiding place so he could negotiate with it personally.
But now, the message Shangguan Rongrong was sending through the Poison Pattern was a distress signal. It most likely meant something had gone wrong during her search for the Spider Spirit...
This situation had arisen because of him, and besides, Zou Feng craved the higher-level Five Poison Creatures. He certainly wasn’t going to sit by and do nothing.
’Now that I’ve also broken through to the Golden Core Realm, there shouldn’t be any more mishaps.’
"Palace Master, don’t... not yet. I have something to take care of!" Zou Feng quickly stopped Su Qingyu.
Su Qingyu froze, frowning. "What could possibly be more important than this?!"
Suddenly changing his mind at the last second was indeed a major turn-off. Zou Feng understood that perfectly.
So, he quickly explained the whole situation.
Su Qingyu was a woman who understood the bigger picture. She withdrew resentfully and said, "So you finally made your move on a woman of the Demon Race..."
Zou Feng knew that trying to explain would only make things worse, so he just said, "Shangguan Rongrong is just my subordinate!"
Without another word, he left the room to have Ye Chenhua adjust the Flying Celestial Ship’s course.
Their group had originally planned to head straight back to the Celestial Hearing Tower.
Of course, several main northern expeditionary forces were leading the charge. Zou Feng’s group planned to follow behind and clean up any stragglers.
For Zou Feng, this journey was basically an all-you-can-eat buffet.
If it lasted long enough, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to "eat" his way straight to the Golden Core Realm Middle Stage.
When Ye Chenhua learned that Zou Feng was going to eliminate a Demon Race traitor, he naturally had no objections. After all, it didn’t conflict with their goal of clearing out Tribulation Cultivators.
Guided by Zou Feng’s connection to the Poison Pattern, the Flying Celestial Ship soon arrived near a dense forest filled with towering, ancient trees. It was impossible to see any movement within.
This sort of dark, complex environment was indeed the kind of place a creature like a spider would love to hide.
Moreover, the dense forest stretched as far as the eye could see and was filled with a peculiar aura that could partially interfere with the Divine Sense scans of Golden Core Realm Cultivators.
’No wonder that Spider Spirit chose to hide here.’ This was her home turf. Under normal circumstances, even if several Golden Core Realm Cultivators entered the forest at once, she could use the environment to escape with ease if she couldn’t win.
’So, she’s overconfident, just waiting for me to take the bait?’
Standing at the bow of the Divine Ship, Zou Feng gazed down at the vast forest, a sneer spreading across his lips.
’Looks like that Spider Spirit has really gotten ahead of herself. She’s trying to use my own plan against me, setting a massive "web" in a defiant attempt to turn the tables and trap me.’
’Obviously, this creature is also drooling over my body.’
’Too bad for her. Never mind that I’ve already broken through to the Golden Core Realm—she calls this forest her home turf, but isn’t it mine as well?’
’This kind of environment isn’t just suitable for spiders. Centipedes, scorpions, toads, and snakes can all consider it their home turf.’
’I’m a master of the Five Poison Skill. In an environment like this, I’ll be like a fish in water, a tiger with wings!’
’This little spider really has some nerve. Does she think that just by becoming a traitor, she can go toe-to-toe with a prodigy certified by the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect?’
’How simple. How naive...’
Deep within the dense forest, hollow, grey rock formations were scattered everywhere.
Suspended in mid-air between two massive rocks was Shangguan Rongrong, her entire body bound by translucent spider silk, completely unable to move.
But she hadn’t lost hope. Every so often, her eyes would dart toward the "Upright" character Poison Pattern on her waist.
’He... he will come, right?’
Of course, Shangguan Rongrong figured that even if Zou Feng came, he wouldn’t come alone.
A Golden Core Realm Spider Demon lay in ambush here. Even a True Disciple of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect wouldn’t be so reckless as to court death.
But the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect had already dispatched several great armies for the northern expedition. As a True Disciple, Zou Feng should be able to mobilize some forces.
’So there’s still a chance for me. I finally managed to latch onto a True Disciple from the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect. My luck should be on the rise. It makes no sense for me to meet my end so soon.’
"Good. You sent a distress call to that man, didn’t you... What was his name again... Zou Feng?"
A bewitchingly beautiful woman slowly emerged from the base of the rock formation. She wore a low-cut dress, and it was clear at a glance that she was very... "open-minded," making her incredibly eye-catching.
After all, her proportions were clearly abnormal, beyond what any human could achieve.
Shangguan Rongrong’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
’So the Spider Spirit let me send for help on purpose?!’
’The Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect’s northern expedition armies are already on the move. What makes her think she can continue to put up a desperate resistance?’
The Spider Spirit who had captured Shangguan Rongrong was named Xie Lingwan. Though she was already a Golden Core Great Demon, she had always kept a low profile in this region, never causing any conspicuous trouble.
Who would have thought that when the Tribulation Cultivators invaded, Xie Lingwan would immediately turn traitor? She had even helped the Tribulation Cultivators intercept numerous Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect disciples who were fleeing from the Celestial Hearing Tower.
Shangguan Rongrong had known Xie Lingwan was hiding here. But this forest was simply too vast. Just reporting the general location to Zou Feng would have been completely useless.
