I Cultivate Passively

Chapter 231 The Demons’ Background

The Human Fetus Gu could help the Demons plunder what they needed the most.

Moreover, the cultivation of the Human Fetus Gu did not require particularly harsh conditions.

It only needed to be planted in a human, and then Gong Jiu would continuously torture and drive away the person with Human Fetus Gu.

It was enough to search for enough food everywhere.

Other than that, the Demons were basically sitting back and taking advantage of the situation.

Such a situation also existed among humans.

This was because humans had discovered that the parts of some Demons and monsters were extremely nutritious. Many scales, claws, and teeth were also materials used to refine soul artifacts.

Therefore, regardless of whether it was the Demons or monsters, when humans were at their peak, they were almost all livestock that provided food and materials.

However, with the decline of the Human Emperor’s successors and the disintegration of the human race, these Demons and monsters had a chance to rise up again.

Zhou Feng’s heart didn’t waver at all as he looked at Gong Jiu’s twisted face.

He knew that when Gong Jiu was reduced to the claws and teeth of the Demons, his soul had been distorted. In his eyes, Gong Jiu was a lunatic.

There was nothing worth getting angry about with a lunatic.

“How strong are the so-called Demons? And where are they?” Zhou Feng stepped on Gong Jiu’s head, his tone calm.

He had only killed one of the Demons’ minions, and yet the Human Emperor Blood in his body had such a reaction.

What if he killed a real Demon?

And if he remembered correctly, both the Demons and the monster race were treasures to humans.

The role of a hunter and the prey was never fixed.

As long as those Demons didn’t exceed the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng believed he could dominate them.

“Hehehe!”

Gong Jiu let out a weird peal of laughter as if he had gone crazy.

However, he cooperated, giving him all the information he had on the Demons.

The Demons weren’t a race, but rather a group of outcasts. As long as someone had a knack for destruction and was a borderline lunatic, they could identify themselves as Demons.

Therefore, there were many lifeforms in the group of Demons.

But almost without exception, all the Demons had powerful bodies.

It was said that the source of body refinement came from Demons. Even the first Human Emperor had used the Demons’ bodies as reference material to create the Human Emperor Scripture.

Apart from their powerful bodies, Demons had innate divine abilities and did not need to break through to a certain realm. They were born with it!

The Demons had top-notch innate divine abilities, so their opponents had to be cautious in battle. Otherwise, it would be very easy to suffer a loss and end up being devoured by the Demons.

The Demons could increase their cultivation level by devouring humans because their flesh and soul were the best supplements.

The Demons of the past had once disappeared without a trace, but there were signs of a resurgence in the past few thousand years.

Purple Mansion Demons were called Generals, while Divine Ability Demons were Kings.

In this desolate land, there were many Demon Generals and Demon Kings.

But the Demon Kings were all hiding in the deep mountains and forests, not daring to show themselves.

Gong Jiu’s Master was a Demon General.

“That monster is probably a Rank-9 Demon General! Its innate divine ability has to do with defense! It could effortlessly block the old Sect Leader’s strongest attack!”

The brutality on Gong Jiu’s face decreased toward the end.

Instead, he became calmer, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes. This was the only pride he had as the strongest genius of the Tri-Gu Sect.

“Kill it! Kill It!”

Then, a brutal aura made Gong Jiu become ferocious.

Seeing this, Zhou Feng stomped on Gong Jiu’s head until it exploded.

Afterward, he used the Purple Jade Bell to suppress the surroundings, and those who had Human Fetus Gu in their stomachs were all crushed to death.

Zhou Feng felt that Gong Jiu had been referring to the Demon that was backing him toward the end.

‘A Rank-9 Demon General is equivalent to the 9th Level Purple Mansion cultivator? Innate divine ability is related to defense…

‘Demon…!

Zhou Feng brought Big Yellow to find a place to rest.

Thanks to Gong Jiu’s description, Zhou Feng now had a general understanding of the so-called Demons.

These Demons seemed to be relatively united, and this area was under their rule.

In other words, once Zhou Feng was in danger, no one could save him or help him.

It was like he was alone behind enemy lines, so he needed to be careful.

As such, he pondered over the best course of action and the perfect escape route. Only then could Zhou Feng fight without any scruples.

“Big Yellow, you need to enter the spirit-beast bag to hide!”

Zhou Feng patted Big Yellow’s head.

Big Yellow was not an adult yet, and its strength was relatively low.

When fighting against the Demons, not only would it not be helpful, but it was also be an easy target.

Therefore, Big Yellow had to stay in the spirit-beast bag for some time.

Zhou Feng had bought this spirit-beast bag back in Heavenly Star City. It was quite expensive, and one would not have been able to afford it if they did not have a strong family background.

After all, it was difficult to make a storage bag that could store living things.

“Woof!”

Big Yellow responded with a bark to show that it understood.

Now that Big Yellow’s matter was settled, the only thing left was how to safely escape from the fiendish Demons’ encirclement.

From the reaction of the Human Emperor Blood, the Human Emperor’s successors and the fiendish Demons were mortal enemies.

If Zhou Feng exposed that he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, he would definitely be besieged by the fiendish Demons.

Detonate the Purple Jade Bell?

Regarding such a top-grade spiritual artifact, Zhou Feng was very reluctant to part with it.

Therefore, he did not plan to use this final trump card until he was in dire straits.

‘If that’s the case, only by obtaining a new passive skill can I solve the current problem!’

At present, Zhou Feng was uncharacteristically cautious. It was completely unlike the time when he was unbridled in Heavenly Star City.

That was because Heavenly Star City was a place with rules, and the various powers were intertwined.

Zhou Feng knew that as long as he didn’t do something too excessive, there wouldn’t be too much danger.

There were no rules here, however.

He naturally couldn’t let his guard down in such a place.

‘The progress bar is still far from full… Then I can only use the Crystal Warm Jade!’

Zhou Feng checked the skill panel and found that the progress bar was still a little lacking.

Fortunately, the Crystal Warm Jade had absorbed a lot of Spiritual Qi when he entered the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.

The Spiritual Qi in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was ten times more concentrated than in the outside world.

Hence, the Crystal Warm Jade recovered quickly, and it could recharge the skill panel once again.

Zhou Feng hoped that he could draw a better passive skill this time.

If Zhou Feng could not draw a passive skill, he could only give up on the idea of attacking the Demons.

Instead, he would hunt down the Demons’ minions and slowly temper himself.

Of course, he didn’t forget to seek revenge against the Tri-Gu Sect.

The remaining members of the Tri-Gu Sect had all become the Demons’ minions.

Zhou Feng didn’t need to worry about anything when dealing with them. He just needed to be ruthless.

He placed the Crystal Warm Jade on his palm upon thinking of this, and a large amount of pure Spiritual Qi entered his body. This pure Spiritual energy Qi increased the skill panel’s progress bar rapidly.

After a while, the progress bar was full.

Zhou Feng could now draw a new passive skill!
