Ghost Immortal

After soaking in the medicinal bath for two hours, Li Feng emerged from the tub completely red, looking like a boiled shrimp.

But the effect was indeed obvious. A small section of the crack on the spiritual root healed, and the longest crack was reduced to less than half of its original size.

At this rate, he will be fully recovered in less than ten days.

For the next three days, Li Feng took a medicinal bath and drank bitter medicine soup every day, and secretly mixed tiger bone powder into his food.

Qiu Sheng has learned his lesson and no longer gets up early in the morning to practice boxing and show off.

The two tacitly kept a low profile, secretly consuming the remaining essence of the tiger meat and marrow.

By the fourth night, the marrow and powder from all seven tiger bones had been consumed.

The longest crack on Li Feng's spiritual root had a barely perceptible trace left, and it was almost undetectable.

That night, after Qiu Lan finished her rounds and left, Li Feng took out a small cloth bag from under the bed.

The last piece of tiger meat was in the cloth bag.

He left the tiger meat not for himself, but for Gao Feng.

Gao Feng, his half-demon armored corpse, hasn't appeared in several episodes.

Li Feng was mainly afraid that his fellow disciples from Maoshan would mistake it for a monster and get rid of it.

This armored corpse has been hidden in the cellar of Li Feng's room ever since it was refined in the morgue of the mortuary.

The cellar was dug by Li Feng himself. The entrance was under the bed board, covered with bluestone slabs, and then covered with bedding, so it was completely invisible from the outside.

The cellar was only three feet square, just big enough for the corpse to stand up.

Li Feng moved the bedding aside, lifted the bluestone slab, and revealed the dark entrance.

A chilling aura emanated from the cellar, mixed with the peculiar smell of rust and corpses.

He lit an oil lamp, carried it down the wooden ladder into the cellar.

The cellar walls were made of blue bricks, with the gaps between the bricks filled with glutinous rice paste and talisman ash to prevent the corpse's aura from escaping.

Gao Feng leaned against the innermost wall of the cellar, maintaining a standing posture.

He was wearing a coarse cloth robe that Li Feng had bought from a secondhand clothing store. The robe was wrapped with dense ink lines, and every three inches along the ink lines was a small talisman for suppressing corpses.

These ink lines and corpse-suppressing talismans are not for suppressing Gao Feng, but for isolating the corpse energy on Gao Feng's body.

The aura of the half-demon armored corpse was too peculiar.

It contains both the corpse energy of zombies and the demonic energy of remnant demon souls. The two energies mix together to form a unique "corpse demon energy".

Once this aura is detected by Master Four Eyebrows, it will definitely be given a grand funeral.

Li Feng carefully peeled off the corpse-suppressing talisman from the ink line, and then untied the ink line layer by layer.

The ink line was drawn very tightly, leaving crisscrossing marks on the robe. After it was untied, the robe was covered in wrinkles.

Gao Feng, now freed from his restraints, slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were a grayish-white color, somewhere between the living and the dead, with pupils shrunken to the size of pinpoints, gleaming faintly with a metallic sheen in the lamplight.

Unlike the dull and lifeless eyes of ordinary zombies, Gao Feng's eyes held an extremely faint sparkle.

"roar……"

Gao Feng sobbed in a low voice.

He stiffly raised his right hand, his five fingers covered with fine, iron-gray scales.

The fingernails are about two inches long and jet black; they need to be trimmed.

"Don't worry, I brought you something good."

Li Feng pulled out the last piece of tiger meat from his pocket and waved it in front of Gao Feng.

Although the tiger meat had been sitting for several days, it remained fresh because it was sealed in a jade box.

The dark red chunk of meat trembled in Li Feng's hand, and the demonic aura it emitted made Gao Feng's gray-white eyes suddenly light up.

The sobs in his throat became more rapid, and his whole body trembled, as if he was desperately suppressing the instinct to lunge forward.

The "half-demon" in Half-Demon Armored Corpse is reflected in its remaining intelligence.

Ordinary zombies only react to the yang energy and fresh blood of living people.

However, a remnant soul of a demon race is sealed within Gao Feng's body.

This remnant soul has an instinctive craving for demonic energy.

The essence of a three-hundred-year-old tiger demon contained in tiger meat was an irresistible temptation for him.

Open your mouth.

Li Feng tore off a piece of tiger meat and offered it to Gao Feng's mouth.

Gao Feng suddenly opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of sharp fangs that gleamed coldly under the oil lamp.

He took a bite of the tiger meat and swallowed it without even chewing.

After eating the tiger meat, his body felt as if it had been struck by lightning.

The iron-gray scales covering the skin stood upright, with golden light seeping from the gaps between them.

This is the residual demonic power of the tiger demon's essence, which is being absorbed by the remnant demon soul within its body.

"roar!!"

The peak roared, shaking the gray dust off the blue brick walls.

Li Feng quickly cast a soundproof spell and slammed it against the wall to prevent the sound from reaching Qiu Lan.

Gao Feng's body underwent a drastic change under the impact of the tiger meat demon's power.

His already towering eight-foot frame grew another two inches taller.

The muscles in his shoulders and back swelled up like air, stretching his coarse cloth robe so much that it ripped and broke in several places.

Iron-gray scales spread from the back of the hands and arms to the shoulders and back.

Each scale is the size of a copper coin.

Its edges are as sharp as a knife, and dark golden tiger stripes appear on the surface of its scales.

The originally jet-black nails on the five fingers are also transforming, the black color fading to reveal a deeper dark gold.

He could sense that the energy within Gao Feng's body was rising at an astonishing rate.

The corpse energy, originally equivalent to the late stage of spiritual root, surged and expanded like boiling water under the catalysis of the tiger meat demon power.

He quickly broke through the bottleneck of the Spirit Root stage and reached the Qi Refining stage.

Li Feng fed the remaining tiger meat to Gao Feng, piece by piece.

With each bite of tiger meat, Gao Feng's internal energy surged dramatically.

By the time he ate the fifth piece, his cultivation had steadily broken through to the early stage of Qi Refining.

By the time he ate the eighth piece, the intensity of the corpse energy had surpassed that of Li Fengzi, reaching at least the level of mid-stage Qi Refining!

After feeding Gao Feng a whole piece of tiger meat, he closed his eyes and stood quietly, as if he had turned into an iron statue.

But Li Feng could sense that Gao Feng's aura had completely transformed.

Corpse Demon Qi – that's the name Li Feng gave to the mixed aura within Gao Feng's body.

The corpse energy of zombies and the remnant souls of demons were originally two completely incompatible forces.

One belongs to Yin, and the other to Yang; logically, they should repel each other.

However, the remnant soul within Gao Feng's body was forcibly sealed into the corpse by Li Feng, and the remnant soul and the corpse have reached a balance.

Now, the demonic essence contained in tiger meat has disrupted the balance.

The demonic power greatly increased, forcing the corpse energy to evolve on its own.

When Gao Feng opened his eyes again.

His eyes were no longer gray, but had turned into a strange dark gold.

The pupils were still the size of pinheads, but a faint, eerie green halo had appeared around them, which turned out to be the aura of ghostly flames!

The Netherworld Fire that Li Feng released during his fight with the tiger demon.

Some of the remaining ghost fire aura was absorbed by Gao Feng and remained in the tiger meat.
