Chapter 740: Chapter 728: Evil Demon’s Twenty-Six Seconds!

"In that area ahead, there is a green cliff with some Ancient Writing on it. However, I now sense a powerful demon beast nearby, far stronger than the Silver Winged White Ape we encountered before!"

At that moment, Shig Lingrou pointed towards the jungle ahead and spoke to Shi Feng.

Following that, Shig Lingrou continued, "However, I have already memorized the Ancient Writing, and I no longer need it. I tried, but I couldn’t inscribe it down, nor could I convey it to you using Soul Power. You will have to go and memorize it yourself.

To ensure safety, I’ll wait here for you. If you come back alive, I’ll take you to the next location with Ancient Writing. If you don’t return after a long time, I’ll leave on my own.

And if you don’t want to face that powerful Ancient Monster Beast, I can take you to the next location right now!"

As Shig Lingrou mentioned, Shi Feng had also sensed the demon beast ahead, which was indeed more powerful than the Early Stage Eighth-stage Saint Level Silver Winged White Ape, having reached the Peak of Eighth-stage Saint Level!

However, an Ancient Monster Beast that had not yet evolved to the Emperor Realm was not something Shi Feng would take seriously. He responded to Shig Lingrou, "No need for the fuss, just take me there directly, and after I eliminate that demon beast, I’ll memorize the Writing, and then we can head straight to the next site."

"Absolutely not!" Shig Lingrou flatly refused after hearing Shi Feng’s words, "That demon beast is incredibly powerful. I don’t want to go there. I’m not joking with my life!"

"Then never mind!" said Shi Feng. Since she did not want to go, he wouldn’t insist, and then he added to Shig Lingrou, "Just wait here for the time it takes half an incense stick to burn!"

After saying this, Shi Feng’s figure darted towards the jungle.

"Half an incense stick?" Hearing the words left by Shi Feng and watching his white figure dash off rapidly, Shig Lingrou shook her head in disbelief and murmured, "This man, he is a bit too arrogant!"

Not only was there an incredibly powerful demon beast in that area, but even the Ancient Writing on the green rock wall had taken her, with the secret techniques of the Three Lives Sect, half a day to memorize.

And he said half an incense stick!

"Roar!" Shortly afterward, Shig Lingrou heard a roar from the dense jungle ahead, followed by a surge of powerful force.

"Roar!" The roar sounded again, but this time, Shig Lingrou discerned pain in the fierce beast’s howl, and then that powerful aura vanished instantly.

"Such a strong demon beast, merely three breaths, and he has slain it!" When Shig Lingrou sensed that the powerful aura had indeed completely disappeared, she couldn’t help but be astounded.

That aura had been like a huge mountain to her, a Two-star Martial Venerable, capable of annihilating her with a sneeze.

But just like that, it was extinguished by that man in three breaths!

Immediately afterward, Shig Lingrou saw a white figure rushing back towards her at high speed.

"What happened?" Seeing the returning white figure, Shig Lingrou was startled again and then suddenly thought incredulously, "Could it be... he didn’t need half an incense stick, but just under three breaths to slay that demon beast and memorize the Ancient Writing on the green rock?

But... how could this be possible! The complexity and mysterious nature of the Ancient Writing, how could it be memorized so easily! I... I took half a day!"

Shi Feng had indeed taken only twenty-six seconds!

In those twenty seconds, he had not only rushed to the dense forest ahead but had also punched and killed the ancient monster beast at the Eighth-stage Saint Level Peak, engulfed in fiery flames, resembling a gigantic centipede covered in black scales. He devoured its Power of Death, Soul Power, and blood.

Then, glancing at the ancient writing on the green rocky wall, Shi Feng suddenly gasped, recognizing the writing as extremely similar to one he had seen in a previous life.

The previous Emperor Nine Nether had deciphered a Supreme Sword Skill from those characters, the Blocking Style of the Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique! Shi Feng knew only that move in the Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique, so he designated it as the first move.

Yet, he had never expected, to encounter a piece of ancient writing similar to but different from what he had seen in his former life.

With his past experience of noting down such ancient writing, and given that he was an Evil Demon, Shi Feng took only three breaths to commit this ancient character to memory.

In just twenty-six seconds, Shi Feng had completed the journey, successfully slain the demon beast, and formed a successful memory of that character.

While Shig Lingrou was still in shock, Shi Feng’s figure stopped in front of her. He spoke to her with a calm tone, saying, "Come, take me to the next location of ancient writing."

Shi Feng had never anticipated that the writing in this space would be this character. Emperor Nine Nether had long realized the subtlety and profundity of this character.

He achieved the formidable defensive power within the Blocking Style of the Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique. Now, Shi Feng was filled with anticipation about what Combat Technique he could derive from this ancient character.

And if he acquired all the ancient writing, the Combat Techniques that could be deciphered!

Despite Shi Feng’s steadfast mind, at this moment, his heart stirred with excitement as he resolved to possess all the ancient characters in this space.

Definitely!

"Did you really memorize that ancient writing in such a short amount of time?" Shig Lingrou still asked Shi Feng in disbelief.

This was even more shocking to her than Shi Feng killing the powerful ancient monster beast.

Instead of directly answering Shig Lingrou, Shi Feng presented his palm towards her, and immediately, a weirdly distorted ancient character in ghostly white emerged between his palms.

Although the character in Shi Feng’s palm was ghostly white, Shig Lingrou quickly recognized it as the same ancient character she had noted down earlier on the green rock.

Unlike her, Shi Feng had done something different; after memorizing the ancient character, he had been unable to materialize it, keeping it only in his mind. Yet, he had effortlessly manifested this mysterious and profound ancient character right before her eyes.

How... How had he done this?

Shig Lingrou was inwardly astonished once again.

Shi Feng clenched his fist, scattering the ghostly white ancient character in his right palm, then spoke to Shig Lingrou again, "Lead the way! However, this time, please take the shortest route. If there are powerful beasts that even I can’t handle, I will sense them, and I will take you away."
