Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Two Frogs at the Bottom of a Well

With this Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation Diagram, all Chu Feng needs is to gather four Treasure Swords and find a way to refine this Sword Formation Diagram. Then, he can set up the Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation. At that time, it won’t be about slaying gods upon encountering them, but at the very least, it would mean decimating immortals when meeting them.

Even if he becomes stronger in the future and seeks revenge on the Panlong Crown Prince, this Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation Diagram will still be of great use.

The early bird catches the worm.

To catch the pie falling from the sky, one must wake up early to snatch it.

Chu Feng was indeed extremely fortunate. By a stroke of fate, he discovered the secret of Han Dong and Liu Qiang. Accidentally through a hidden passage, he came before anyone else to the very heart of the Sword Tomb, the Demon Suppression Tower.

He was also the first to find the entrance to the second level of the Demon Suppression Tower and entered the huge stone coffin on the first level.

This was how he successfully obtained the Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation Diagram.

If not for his meticulous observation, coupled with his profound knowledge and vast experience, even if he was the first to enter this stone coffin, it would have been difficult to acquire this invaluable Sword Formation Diagram.

...

Chu Feng found a way to wrap the Sword Formation Diagram in his clothes and carry it on his back. That way, it could also serve as a shield.

"Let’s go, we’re heading down!"

Having obtained the Sword Formation Diagram, joy filled Chu Feng’s heart along with an unstoppable surge of excitement.

Even with the equanimity of one who had lived for thousands of years like him, acquiring such a treasure made it hard to remain unmoved.

"I hope I can acquire the four Treasure Swords in the following levels; that would be fantastic!" Chu Feng was filled with anticipation for the levels below. However, he did not let success get to his head nor did he become heedless of potential dangers.

"Master, allow me to clear the path for you!"

The Poison Eye Dragon King spoke with utmost loyalty. He rushed forward and entered the second level of the Demon Suppression Tower through the cracked hole at the bottom of the giant coffin.

Chu Feng followed closely, standing at the entrance, ready to leap down once the Poison Eye Dragon King scouted the situation below. The first level, though perilous, was manageable with his abilities.

The second level, however, was another matter.

Han Dong’s body began to shiver uncontrollably, clearly unable to withstand the thick Demonic Qi of the Demon Suppression Tower’s first level.

Although his cultivation was on par with Chu Feng’s, both being Advanced Sword Masters, he didn’t possess Abnormal Fire, and his resistance to Demonic Qi was extremely limited. It was already commendable that he could hold out for so long.

Part of the reason was also because the Poison Eye Dragon King used his Sword Domain to protect him, blocking a portion of the Demonic Qi for him.

Now, with the Poison Eye Dragon King venturing into the second level to scout, leaving no one to protect him, he naturally could not bear it. His body trembled more and more violently.

It was like a frail person shivering in the freezing cold of ice and snow, wearing only thin clothes.

"Han Dong, if you can’t withstand it, then withdraw!" Chu Feng spoke gently.

Chu Feng valued this subordinate, whose strength was not very formidable. If well-cultivated, Han Dong might become Chu Feng’s dark left hand, carrying out the dirty deeds Chu Feng wanted but could not do himself.

Doing good deeds accrues virtue, while evil deeds will entangle one with karma.

This was something Chu Feng had long understood.

If one’s karma was deep, it would greatly impact their cultivation in the future and attract misfortune.

Conversely, accumulating virtue and doing good could mitigate disasters and bring about profound fortune.

After his rebirth, Chu Feng had more far-reaching plans for life. His broad-mindedness and vision had greatly improved from his past life.

In this life, he intended to go even further. Whether in Alchemy Dao or Sword Dao, he aimed to reach the peak beyond gods. Many things that would attract calamities would have to be done through others’ hands.

The path of cultivation was itself against the natural order. Some evil and bad deeds must be done. Only then can one gain great benefits and acquire precious Cultivation Resources.

"Master, I don’t want to be weak forever; I want to become stronger. Please help me enter the deeper levels of the Demon Suppression Tower. Whether or not I find an opportunity there, at least I will have tried, and I’ll have no regrets."

Han Dong pleaded with determination on his face.

Chu Feng felt gratified to see his follower harbor such ambition and desire for strength.

Only by becoming more powerful can Han Dong do more for Chu Feng.

"This Fire Talisman Pill will protect you from the Demonic Qi inside the Demon Suppression Tower for three days." With a flick of his finger, Chu Feng sent a Fire Talisman Pill flying into Han Dong’s hands.

"Just activate it with your Sword Qi!"

After catching the Fire Talisman Pill, Han Dong trembled even more violently, shaking like a sieve.

He immediately followed Chu Feng’s instructions and activated the Fire Talisman Pill with his Sword Qi.

Boom!

A warm surge of red energy enveloped him, completely isolating the external Demonic Qi. It was truly miraculous.

He looked at Chu Feng with eyes full of worship.

His master, though young in age, had reached a transcendent level in the Alchemy Dao. His profound mastery left people in awe.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Master. I will do my utmost to seize any opportunity!" Han Dong’s body stopped trembling, and he further stimulated the Sword Qi within his body to slowly expel any infiltrating Demonic Qi.

With the use of the Fire Talisman Pill Chu Feng had rewarded him with, the Demonic Qi was now completely blocked from entering his body.

Without new Demonic Qi invading, it was naturally much easier to expel the Demonic Qi that had already seeped inside.

It’s like trying to empty a pond continuously fed by a stream of water – a very difficult task. However, once the water source is cut off, draining the pond becomes much easier.

...

Not far away, a group of at least ten Sword Saints, accompanied by some Great Sword Masters, flew over.

They were split into two parties: one consisting of Elders and True Disciples from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, and the other composed of Elders and experts from the Rashamon Sect.

These were the two strongest groups entering the Sword Tomb.

Among them, Chu Feng’s enemies, Prince Jianyun and Zang Jianfeng, were conspicuously present. Chu Feng didn’t have a deep grudge against Zang Jianfeng, who merely looked down upon him and intended to steal Han Xiaoying away.

However, the animosity between Prince Jianyun and Chu Feng was like fire and water, with no possibility of reconciliation.

It was a situation where one would not rest until the other was dead.

Now, Prince Jianyun was within arm’s reach of attaining Sword Saint Cultivation, his formidable strength intimidating.

Compared with him, Chu Feng still had quite a gap to bridge.

This was even after Chu Feng, with his indomitable spirit despite physical limitations, had made every effort to reach his current state. Otherwise, he might not even qualify to be an opponent for Prince Jianyun.

Just like before, when Chu Feng had not yet been reborn into this body.

To the Third Prince, who was nothing but a waste, he was merely an ant in the eyes of Prince Jianyun, not even worth his attention.

"Haha, we are definitely the first ones to enter the Demon Suppression Tower. Storming the final chamber is a matter of life and death." Zang Jianfeng laughed loudly, his arrogance unbridled.

"Brother Cang, I think it’s only natural that we are the first to enter the Demon Suppression Tower. Trash like Chu Feng probably couldn’t even get into the Sword Tomb," Prince Jianyun spoke loudly, his eyes glowing with fervor as he looked at Han Xiaoying.

He deliberately demeaned Chu Feng in front of Han Xiaoying.
