I Cultivate Passively Chapter 80 - Purple Jade Bell!

Chapter 80: Purple Jade Bell!

Han Qi suppressed the impatience in his heart and explained some things about the Sect Leader position to Zhou Feng. “That’s it! Do you understand?”

This should be the first time Zhou Feng had come into contact with information regarding the Tri-Gu Sect’s upper echelon.

From Han Qi’s description, the Tri-Gu Sect’s upper echelon seemed to be in a fierce battle.

The Sect Leader had not made an appearance to take charge for a long time, while the inner sect of the Tri-Gu Sect was empty due to the skirmishes with the other sects.

Not long ago, they had even sent the First Elder (Grand Elder) to handle some matters.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, the Grand Elder was the most important position in the sect besides the Sect Leader.

If even the Grand Elder had been forced to go out, one could imagine how lacking the Tri-Gu Sect’s high-level combat power was.

Under such circ.u.mstances, a normal sect’s faction might end their infighting and work together to deal with the outside world.

Unexpectedly, the Tri-Gu Sect’s factions placed even more importance on fighting amongst themselves in such a situation. It would be even better if they could use other sects to weaken the opposing faction.

From the way they nurtured their disciples, it could be seen that the Tri-Gu Sect itself was abnormal.

They had been able to survive purely due to their powerful combatants. After all, the Tri-Gu Soul Altar cultivators were equivalent to two normal Soul Altar cultivators.

Zhou Feng finally opened his mouth to reply. “So?”

He was very clear about Han Qi’s meaning. It was a question of choosing sides.

He would have to choose between the Bloodthirsty faction or the Penta-Poison faction.

Han Qi was representing the Penta-Poison faction.

Zhou Feng did not want to partic.i.p.ate in these battles. Even if he needed a battle team, he could not choose a side at this time.

One had to know that his master-in-name was the Grand Elder, Old Demon Gu.

Old Demon Gu should be from the Bloodthirsty faction! Wouldn’t he be courting death if he sided with the Penta-Poison faction?

“Looks like it’s time for a poor wretch like you to face reality! Even if we are both in the Soul Altar realm, the difference is something you can not imagine!”

Han Qi could no longer tolerate Zhou Feng’s att.i.tude.

He had already done what needed to be done. Under such circ.u.mstances, it should be enough to deal with those old fellows.

“If you can make me move one step, I’ll consider it your win!” Han Qi raised his chin slightly, his eyes revealing disdain.

Zhou Feng’s entire body suddenly tensed up. As Han Qi’s voice fell, a sense of crisis spread throughout his entire body.

He subconsciously dodged!

A venomous black bee silently pa.s.sed by Zhou Feng’s side like a poisonous needle. The scariest thing was that this entire process did not stir up any ripples. There was no sound at all.

If Zhou Feng’s Battle Instinct had not been triggered, he would not have even noticed it.

If it were an ordinary person, they would not have thought that Han Qi would suddenly make a move.

There were no signs at all!

“You are quite vigilant! You actually managed to evade the Stealth-Venom Gu? Looks like you have some talent after all!”

Seeing that Zhou Feng managed to evade his sneak attack, Han Qi raised his eyebrows.

This venomous bee was an offense-type Gu Han Qi had refined. The most unique characteristics of the Stealth-Venom Gu were its stealth attacks, breakneck speed, and potent venom.

When that pair of wings flapped, it was able to eliminate all sound.

Han Qi had already used the Stealth-Venom Gu to a.s.sa.s.sinate a few Soul Altar cultivators. There was no lack of old foxes among the a.s.sa.s.sinated Soul Altar cultivators.

Zhou Feng’s lips were tightly sealed, not saying a word.

‘Kill!’ he roared angrily in his heart.

Then, the splitting ax being nurtured in his Soul Altar was immediately summoned.

An afterimage was left on the spot, and a violent air-piercing sound echoed.

The ax’s blade was aimed straight at Han Qi’s neck.

“Tsk! So shabby. Not even a complete soul artifact?”

When Han Qi saw the splitting ax in Zhou Feng’s hand, he couldn’t hold it in anymore and laughed out loud.

The splitting ax in Zhou Feng’s hand was shabby; it couldn’t even be called a soul artifact. There were only two runes engraved on it.

When facing Zhou Feng’s attack, Han Qi didn’t even intend to dodge. He just stood there.

“Dang!”

Then, a small bell slowly floated above Han Qi’s head.

A purple light curtain hung down from the small bell, enveloping Han Qi completely.

Compared to the splitting ax in Zhou Feng’s hand, the small bell hovering over Han Qi’s head was a true soul artifact, and it had been nurtured for a long time.

The entire soul artifact was full of spirituality.

The small bell’s name was Purple Jade Bell, and it was entirely made of Purple Jade. When it was activated, it could form a light curtain to resist all-round attacks.

Moreover, it was both an offensive and defensive artifact as it used soundwaves to attack.

Although such a soul artifact couldn’t be compared to a spiritual artifact, it could still be considered a high-level artifact.

‘Defensive soul artifact?’

Purple Jade Bell’s rebound force shook Zhou Feng’s right hand until it became somewhat numb.

Just as Han Qi shook his head and wanted to continue mocking, a trace of extremely sharp blade aura pierced through the Purple Jade Bell.

“What!?”

Han Qi’s pupils slightly shrank.

This blade aura even penetrated through Han Qi’s protective Spiritual Qi and directly attacked his physical body.

‘Impossible! Such a simple attack? The Purple Jade Bell should have been able to withstand it!’

Shock! Disbelief!

Han Qi’s emotions surged into his heart because this was simply impossible!

‘This is… the Armor-Piercing Spear?’

Zhou Feng reacted immediately. This was the pa.s.sive Armor-Piercing Spear taking effect!

Armor-Piercing Spear: Every attack will ignore 1% of the opponent’s defense and directly attack the main body.

This pa.s.sive skill had been of little use ever since he obtained it.

Although this pa.s.sive skill sounded powerful, he had forgotten about it because it was of little use in actual combat.

In the face of a weak opponent, he did not even need to use this pa.s.sive skill to crush them directly.

And in the face of a strong opponent, this 1% armor-piercing effect was slightly unreliable.

There was another great limitation—this pa.s.sive skill was ineffective against an opponent higher than his own realm.

But now, it seemed that it was not so useless!

If he did not have this pa.s.sive skill, Zhou Feng might really have no way to deal with Han Qi and his Purple Jade Bell.

His offensive methods were truly lacking against such an all-round defensive soul artifact.

“Demon-Devouring Battle Art!”

Since the Armor-Piercing Spear was effective, Zhou Feng immediately unleashed his full strength.

Soon, several demonic avatars appeared while the surroundings became dark.

This was the first time Zhou Feng was using the Demon-Devouring Battle Art after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm. Its power was at least several times stronger than in the Qi Condensation realm.

At this time, the few insolent demonic avatars resembled a group of demons dancing wildly.

The demonic avatars controlled numerous tentacles and crazily smashed them against Han Qi enveloped in the Purple Jade Bell’s light curtain.

Dang, dang, dang!

The continuous knocking sounds were incessant.

Faint black Spiritual Qi filled Zhou Feng’s entire body, while his long black hair danced in the air like wild pythons.
