“No need to worry, let's wait. The golden egg is still with us. Can this yao beast run away?” Chen Feng smiled. Next, he waved his hand and a stream of killing energy flowed into his palm. Part of the stream also entered the Longevity Tower.

It did not take much effort for Chen Feng to completely refine the stream of killing energy into pure primary energy.

“This should be the aura coming off a yao beast,” Tower was quick to say.

“Not a demonic beast?” Chen Feng asked Tower.

“Absolutely not. There isn't a single strand of demonic energy there,” Tower answered scornfully.

“In other words, this yao beast should be deep underground. However, is it suppressed down there, or is this the yao beast's lair?”

“Hey, hey! I can't possibly know that.”

“If so, can you determine what level the yao beast is at?” That was Chen Feng biggest concern.

“Yao Immortal,” Tower was quick to answer.

“Yao Immortal! That is at least the equivalent of an Earthen Immortal. Does that mean it can kill me with just a breath?” Chen Feng was shocked.

“No need for that. Just one glance from it can kill you.”

Shua!

As Chen Feng was secretly chatting with Tower, the Goldwing Tiger flew out. A thick killing energy emerged from the Goldwing Tiger's body and it s.h.i.+vered. It did not appear to be in a good state. In fact, it looked much weaker than before.

Pa! Pa!

Two dark-black spirit stones fell before Chen Feng. One glance was all it took for Chen Feng to know that those two were very rare spirit stones. The energy contained within them was of a very high grade, even more so compared to Sacred crystals.

“These spirit stones were obtained from down below?” Chen Feng picked up the two spirit stones. They were cold to the touch. However, the pure killing energy within them flowed through his arm and into his body before swiftly coursing towards his sea of wisdom. Instantly, Chen Feng's sea of wisdom was thrown into a state of chaos. Due to that, the inner demons that Chen Feng had kept well suppressed began stirring.

Chen Feng furiously ignited his Soulflame to suppress it all. “Strange, it doesn't just contain killing energy. It seems there are other energies within it.”

“It is the power of darkness. The yao beast down below must be a dark-type yao beast,” Tower said.

“Going down is probably not easy, no?” Jian Xiaotian said, looking at the Goldwing Tiger, who continued to s.h.i.+ver.

“Forget it. Here's your golden egg. You may leave now.” Chen Feng handed the golden egg to the Goldwing Tiger. After getting the golden egg, the Goldwing Tiger thanked Chen Feng profusely before leaping up into the sky where it then disappeared from sight.

“Brother Chen, you are not actually thinking of going down, are you?” Looking at Chen Feng, Jian Xiaotian could already guess what was on his mind.

Chen Feng pondered for a moment before saying, “Due to the constant exposure to the killing energy here, crystals have begun forming within this crack. Additionally, no wind blades are coming out from this crack. I want to go down and check it out.”

“It's too dangerous.” Jian Xiaotian stopped him.

“If it's dangerous, I will run back up. These crystals are worth the risk. Brother Jian, wait for me up here.” After saying that, Chen Feng did not wait to hear Jian Xiaotian's response before jumping into the crack.

After venturing ten metres down the crack, Chen Feng stretched his hand out and his five fingers instantly created five deep marks on the wall. However, Chen Feng became shocked and he blurted out.

“So hard!” Chen Feng tutted.

As he descended, he released his divine sense to scan his surroundings. However, the killing energy grew increasingly thick and eventually, his divine sense became effected.

In the beginning, Chen Feng had mobilized astral energy to stop the surrounding killing energy. However, he quickly realized that the killing energy can slowly make its way through his energy s.h.i.+eld to erode his fleshly body. Thus, he channelled his cultivation technique to refine the killing energy, transforming them into primary energy for his own use.

“No wonder that Goldwing Tiger, despite its level, could not venture too deep. The killing energy here is just too powerful.” Chen Feng nodded his head. Soon, he saw some holes on the rocky surface of the surrounding walls. Seeing that, Chen Feng knew that the holes were left by the Goldwing Tiger when it was digging out the crystals.

It was unknown just how long his figure fell. Chen Feng could feel traces of chilling energy blowing towards him, causing his muscles to contract somewhat.

“Oh, there is a crystal here.” Chen Feng reached out with his hand and grasped. A crystal, gleaming with dark light, appeared in his grasp. The killing energy and power of darkness contained within it was greater compared to the one he had received from the Goldwing Tiger earlier.

Chen Feng slowly descended while absorbing the energy within the crystal. It did not take long for the crystal to unravel into powder before completely dissipating away. The remaining strands of killing energy were all refined by Chen Feng into primary energy. They became supplements for Chen Feng. He could also sense strands of dark energy entering his body before disappearing. Realizing that, Chen Feng grew shocked. He carefully inspected his body, but was incapable of finding anything.

Thus, Chen Feng continued to collect the crystals he found on either side. One by one, he collected and refined the crystals. However, while he was capable of easily refining the killing energy within them, the power of darkness he absorbed from them would disappear before he could even work on refining them. It was as though there was a gigantic, voracious beast hidden in the darkness within his body, continuously devouring the power of darkness.

“Tower, what is going on here?” Chen Feng was finally incapable holding back.

“Fool, that's the Dark acupoint,” Tower said with a scornful tone.
