Chapter 366 - The Transcender (1/2)

"Senior Martial Brother Feng also knew of the Demon God Contracted Puppet?"

Zhong Yue was shocked, and he looked at Feng Xiaozhong in admiration.

Those who knew of the Demon God Contracted Puppet were few; even its previous owner, Tu Geer, didn't know what it was, not even its name. Yet right now, Feng Xiaozhong was able to precisely identify it after only a few seconds, suggesting that he also knew of its uses.

"The Demon God Contracted Puppet was a treasure left by the ancient demon gods in order for them to descend back to the mortal world. I've yet to see it anywhere before, but there are plenty of records about it in the demon gods' graves."

Feng Xiaozhong put down the Demon God Contracted Puppet and said, "This puppet can call upon the demon god three times, granting three wishes to its summoner. After the three wishes are granted, the caller's soul would then be offered to the demon god. Your Demon God Contracted Puppet has already been used once, leaving just two wishes left. With this, you can use another wish to be able to leave the Eight Barren demon race peacefully. A man of his own principles would not simply take the treasures of the others. I don't think it would be wise of you to exchange this life-saving treasure just to open the Bloodline Wheel."

Zhong Yue's admiration for Feng Xiaozhong only grew further upon listening to him, "Senior Martial Brother Feng is right, with this treasure, I can easily walk out of the Eight Barren demon race unharmed. However, I want to have a fair battle with Demon Saint. I won't take advantage of the treasures and use this Demon God Contracted Puppet to defeat him."

Feng Xiaozhong gazed at him deeply before praising, "You have the heart of a true cultivator. But that shouldn't come as a surprise should it? After all, how could someone be able to become listed on the Godlike Board if they didn't have such a strong will? So, how do you want to exchange this?"

Rays flashed across Zhong Yue's eyes as he gave his bargains, "My chance for the third wish for your ways of opening the Bloodline Wheel."

Feng Xiaozhong was amazed by such a lopsided deal, but he laughed and said, "After the third wish, the demon god will take away my soul. Yet, you are using it to exchange for my ways to open the sixth wheel? Do you think I don't know what it is?"

Zhong Yue shook his head, and he said solemnly, "I need the second wish for myself, I can only exchange the third. I know Senior Martial Brother Feng fairly well and I know it isn't the wishes you want from the Demon God Contracted Puppet, instead, you are eyeing on the demon god's spirit, right?

Feng Xiaozhong's eyes lit up in amazement as he smiled, "Continue."

Zhong Yue then smiled in turn, "You can get as many the godly corpses, but their spirits aren't something one can easily get their hands on. Furthermore, the ordinary demon gods now have little to no secrets in your eyes, but a demon god that can produce a Demon God Contracted Puppet would be way stronger than the ordinary gods. The things that he knows, and secrets that he has ... would also be a thousand times greater than those of the ordinary ones. If you can take him down, capture the demon god's spirit behind this Demon God Contracted Puppet, research him and study him, you can reap even greater benefits from it than the wishes it grants!"

Feng Xiaozhong's eyes shone even more, and he clapped his hands in applause. He laughed, "Junior Martial Brother Zhong, you really know me well. Yes, you are right. The moment I laid my eyes on this Demon God Contracted Puppet, I was thinking of capturing the demon god. He would be a perfect specimen for my research. As for the wishes, I doubt that even the gods will be able to fulfill my true desires."

Zhong Yue then said solemnly, "Senior Martial Brother Feng, I intend to use the third wish for your ways to open the Bloodline Wheel, what do you say?"

"Deal!"

Feng Xiaozhong said leisurely, "You value the wishes of the Demon God Contracted Puppet the most but to me, its biggest use is for my research. I can capture him for my research. A demon god that can produce a Demon God Contracted Puppet … Hehe , he must be very, very valuable!"

He then lifted his finger and pointed over at Zhong Yue's forehead. Immediately, a massive surge of information flooded into Zhong Yue's mind –words, images of the totem patterns, dissected gods, their internal body structures, the composition of their Yuan Shen, and most notably, the pictures that contained the shackled chains!

These shackled chain pictures were the most terrifying of all; they were the seals in the human bloodline, made by the totem patterns!

These pictures showed the complexity of the seals that locked away the powers in the human blood, and when all of these pictures come together, they would form six perfect circles that collectively represented the Seal of the Six Paths Reincarnation!

Zhong Yue was stunned, he had once seen these bloodline seals that locked his Fuxi powers away before when he was trying to open the Bloodline Wheel. However, they were just not as many as what Feng Xiaozhong have presented to him!

Following this influx of information was the method that Feng Xiaozhong used to progressively breakthrough the bloodline seals before ultimately opening the Bloodline Wheel!

This information was large and complex. Even though Zhong Yue had the confidence that he would eventually be able to attain them all in the future, that would take a long while, most probably tens of years!

On the other hand, Feng Xiaozhong was a true genius, a man that made one feel as if he were the reincarnation of the heaven itself!

Zhong Yue heaved a long breath, he stood up, and Feng Xiaozhong stood up together with him to send him off. The latter then said, "The day you leave the Eight Barrens is the day I will come to claim the Demon God Puppet."

Feng Xiaozhong walked Zhong Yue to the door of the demon palace, and Zhong Yue turned back with his eyes filled with complex emotions. He said softly, "Senior Martial Brother Feng, are you not planning to go back to Swords Gate anymore?"

"No … I will not go back…."

Feng Xiaozhong was also filled with an inexplicable emotion, he shook his head and said, "I can never go back anymore. If I return, my father will die, and none of you will like my existence nor what will happen next after my return…."

As long as he doesn't go back, as long as he didn't see his father's grave with his own eyes, the old headmaster would live forever in his heart. As such, he would be able to remain sane and would not plunge into a permanent state of madness.

Once he had gone back, the last remnants of his sanity would also die along with his father. The old headmaster had banished him just so that he could retain his sanity. With the last sanity he had left, Feng Xiaozhong would still be a living man, and without it, he would turn emotionless like the heaven and earth!"

"One last thing…."

Feng Xiaozhong was dead silent for a few moments, he then suddenly said, "When you are opening the Bloodline Wheel, you will be able to see the Six Paths of Reincarnation. You have to remember this: When the humans are opening the sixth secret realm, forming the Six Paths Reincarnation in our bodies, a great terror will come for you…."

His calm face distorted as his sanity was starting to shake turbulently, at any point in time now, he would plunge into madness. Feng Xiaozhong was suppressing himself with all his might so as to prevent himself from losing control and his voice husky as he said, "You need to be careful when you see the Six Paths Reincarnation, do not alert the existence that sealed us away, or otherwise, you will be the next madman Feng Xiaozhong! You, look after yourself … Go! LEAVE NOW!"

His sanity was slipping away from his grasp, and he was starting to lose control.

Zhong Yue bowed at Feng Xiaozhong, and he quickly left the demon palace, he boarded the boat in the sky, and he said solemnly, "We will leave now! To the Desolation City!"

Tian Mo Concubine, Saint Concubine, and the others quickly moved the boat and left. Rays flashed across Tian Mo Concubine's eyes, and she said softly, "Darling, who is the one that captured Heavenly Saint Demon Embryo?"

"An old friend."
