I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

This was a far cry from the Outer Body Incarnation Liu Chenyu had used to plot against him in the Demon Suppression Tower.

But that wasn’t a major issue. As long as the Outer Body Incarnation carried his aura and could move separately to throw off Ink Ash Abyss’s judgment, it would suffice.

The next moment, with a mere thought from Zou Feng, the Outer Body Incarnation formed from Evil Qi shot off in another direction.

Zou Feng, of course, went the opposite way.

He also didn’t forget to keep condensing more Outer Body Incarnations.

After all, a single one wouldn’t buy him much time.

He needed to create several more to cause Ink Ash Abyss enough trouble.

With the experience from the first, condensing the second Outer Body Incarnation went much more smoothly for Zou Feng.

For this second one, he even changed his method, forming it from poisonous gas instead of Evil Qi.

This would make it even more deceptive.

And so, Zou Feng’s escape became a cycle of running while continuously condensing Outer Body Incarnations.

He wasn’t worried about the consumption, at least for now. After all, the External Pills he’d stockpiled from his previous "hunts" were more than sufficient.

In fact, for every External Pill he consumed, Zou Feng could condense a crude but serviceable Outer Body Incarnation.

Soon, another hour passed. The intense feeling of panic he’d felt before had actually subsided.

This proved that his tactic of constantly sending out Outer Body Incarnations to mislead Ink Ash Abyss was working.

Overjoyed, Zou Feng finally let out a long sigh of relief.

’Of course, I can’t let my guard down completely. To be truly safe, I still have to get back to that path.’

"Zou Feng!"

A woman’s voice suddenly called out, making Zou Feng’s heart, which had just settled, leap back into his throat.

The voice was unfamiliar. Zou Feng was certain he’d never heard it before.

But it definitely wasn’t Ink Ash Abyss. He could tell from the reaction of the name on the List of Gods.

"Who?"

Since he’d been found, Zou Feng naturally had to figure out what was going on.

’Even Ink Ash Abyss hasn’t been able to pinpoint my exact location,’ he thought. ’Yet this woman managed to intercept me here. Is this a coincidence, or does she have some special means?’

"Who I am is not important. What’s important is... I can save you!"

Even after she spoke, the woman remained hidden, her voice the only sign of her presence.

"You can save me?" Zou Feng scoffed. "If you’re here to help, why are you hiding?"

The woman let out a laugh like tinkling bells. "Because my help isn’t free. You have to agree to a condition..."

"Cut the crap and spit it out!"

"You’ve heard the name Gongyang Wuji, haven’t you?" the woman said unhurriedly. "You two are both prodigies the likes of which are seen once a century, and you both carry a portion of your respective factions’ fortune..."

"And I am very curious to see which of you is the true Child of Fortune of this era!"

"So my condition is this: after I help you escape this tribulation from the Ninefold Celestial Court’s Nascent Soul Cultivator, you must go to where Gongyang Wuji is and engage him in a fair duel."

"If you win, the benefits will be immense. I don’t need to spell that out for you, do I?"

After hearing her out, Zou Feng immediately grew suspicious. ’Could my being targeted by Ink Ash Abyss have been his own scheme all along, now that he’s the top name on the list?’

And this secretive woman was utterly baffling.

In fact, Zou Feng already knew exactly who this woman was.

After all, a name that had recently been added to the List of Gods was now reacting accordingly...

"Aren’t you afraid I’ll just pretend to agree, and then turn my back on you once I’ve escaped the Ninefold Celestial Court’s Nascent Soul Cultivator?" Zou Feng retorted.

The woman laughed even more gleefully at his words. "With all you’ve accomplished, surely you’re not that shortsighted, are you?"

"Besides, if you dare to double-cross me, I have more than enough ways to make that Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Ninefold Celestial Court find you again in an instant!"

"Alright, make your decision. He’s almost here..."

Zou Feng feigned indecision for a moment, then put on an expression of resignation. "Fine. A battle between me and Gongyang Wuji is inevitable sooner or later anyway!"

"I just have one last question for you."

"Ask away!"

"Since even the Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Ninefold Celestial Court can’t pinpoint my location right now, how did *you* find me?"

The woman snorted. "That’s not important. I have no obligation to explain it to you!"

Hearing this, Zou Feng nodded in agreement. "That’s true... In that case, just pretend I never asked. After all, no matter what special method you used to find me, all I need to do now is kill you, and that will solve everything!"

Before his words had even faded, Zou Feng suddenly lunged, ramming straight into a massive, leafy tree nearby.

"You..."

The woman cried out in alarm. She had never expected Zou Feng to suddenly attack, let alone pinpoint her hiding spot.

Caught completely off guard, the layers of camouflage around her—Spiritual Energy Protection, spatial barriers, Illusion Technique Arrays, and more—were instantly shattered.

Her cry of alarm turned into a pained scream as Zou Feng’s Tribulation-Indestructible Body slammed squarely into her.

From the very beginning, Zou Feng had never counted on this woman to help him escape his predicament, nor did he believe a single word she said.

The reason was simple: the woman’s name on the List of Gods was Gongyang Yuhuan.

Gongyang Yuhuan had done her best to pose as a mysterious Female Cultivator, merely interested in seeing a duel between prodigies.

But she could never have imagined that Zou Feng, already knowing her name, had simply been playing along with her performance.

All the while, he had been secretly and slowly releasing his poison, using the feedback from the gas to pinpoint Gongyang Yuhuan’s location.

It’s worth noting that Gongyang Yuhuan had dared to be so arrogant and negotiate with Zou Feng for two reasons. First, Ink Ash Abyss could arrive at any moment, and her appearance was like a lifeline for Zou Feng.

The second reason was that Gongyang Yuhuan herself was a prodigy of the Divine Domain’s Royal Family, currently at the Early Stage of the Golden Core Realm.

Therefore, even if Zou Feng suddenly went berserk and attacked her, she was confident that even if she couldn’t win, she could still escape unscathed.

Unfortunately for her, this was all just her own wishful thinking.

It wasn’t until Zou Feng crashed into her that she realized just how wrong she had been.

Zou Feng’s ramming attack didn’t just inflict impact damage. An overwhelming flood of poisonous gas and Evil Qi simultaneously invaded her body.

Just as Gongyang Yuhuan, dazed from the impact, finally came to her senses and tried to cast a technique to resist, Zou Feng had already used his Snake Skin Movement to circle behind her. He wrapped his arms and legs around her, locking her in a death grip.

"Let... let me go!!"

Gongyang Yuhuan was utterly panicked. She had never encountered a Golden Core Realm Cultivator who would resort to street-fighting tactics. And worse, she never imagined such crude moves could be so absurdly powerful.

But Zou Feng only "hugged" her tighter. His breath grew ragged from the exertion. "Don’t be afraid. It’ll be over soon..."

An unbloomed Golden Lotus slowly emerged with the two of them at its center.

And as Zou Feng continued to exert his power, the Golden Lotus showed clear signs of being about to burst into full bloom.

Seeing this, Gongyang Yuhuan trembled in terror, her voice breaking into a sob. "No... don’t, I beg you... I’ll do anything..."

This was not a simple plea for mercy, but an ability that came with her Innate Spiritual Body.

Gongyang Yuhuan’s beauty was self-evident, but her most potent trait was her Innate Spiritual Body, which made her seem like an exquisite, delicate porcelain doll.

Even other Cultivators would find themselves unconsciously affected, overcome by an urge to protect this "porcelain doll" from shattering.

It was, in fact, a form of extremely potent, natural charm.

Unfortunately for her, because Zou Feng cultivated the Great Universal Hand, he was completely immune to such ploys.

Finding her whimpering annoying, he simply reached out and clamped a hand over her mouth.

"Be quiet. It’s almost time."
