I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

The Evil Fog was thick and viscous.

Xia Feng felt light as a feather, his head tilted back as he hovered in the gray, hazy air.

The surrounding Evil Fog, upon his appearance, surged forward as if they were sharks sensing blood.

Yet, the moment they touched his body, they scattered in terror as if confronted by a terrifying primordial beast, disintegrating and fleeing.

Xia Feng's lips curled into a smile, and he inhaled sharply—the fleeing Evil Fog couldn't escape, spiraling into his nose and mouth.

The mist that filled the space vanished instantly.

[Evil Demon Heart Repair Progress: 32.11%→33.19%]

"Thump thump—thump thump—"

His heartbeat thundered like a drum, Xia Feng's pupils contracted, turning ever more jet black, as if a terrifying beast lurked in the depths of the darkness, ready to awaken at any moment.

He had to admit, the welcome gift from Jinyang Tian and Jin Shiyin was quite to his liking.

Xia Feng twisted his neck, stood up, and glanced around in mid-air.

The Ember Stone space was empty.

He had heard Jinyang Tian's explanation to Huang Zhaoyue outside; this place wasn't a level 2 ember land, just a level 0 ember land transformed into a calamity land by the Calamity Fog Card.

The Ember Stone had also disappeared.

He wondered how many [Level 2 · Calamity Fog Cards] existed within the Sumeru Realm.

These things were no different from high-level Evil Spirit Pearls!

As he pondered, Xia Feng heard the conversation between the two outside; they were planning to deliver a fatal blow once he was severely injured and emerged.

To achieve the game's first kill!

This was indeed a tricky situation.

Even facing a regular Holy Realm opponent, Xia Feng might not be able to win,

let alone against Jinyang Tian and Jin Shiyin, both Holy Realm pinnacle powerhouses, the former a divine level genius, the latter once a sage.

When the three-minute existence of the calamity land ended, he would be forcefully sent out and instantly killed.

So....

If death was inevitable, why not choose a different way to die?

Xia Feng's jet-black eyes narrowed, and he looked down at the sand in his left palm, this insignificant grain of sand he had always held was finally going to be of use.

He acted on his thoughts, plunging his other hand into his soul's belly—

He grasped the Spiritual Base and instantly refined it!

[Spirit Base Infant Transformation · Spirit Stealing Hand]

After refining the Spiritual Base into a Venerable Level Spirit Baby for storage, Xia Feng's face turned deathly pale, beads of sweat gathering on his forehead.

[Current Stored Spirit Babies: 129 Venerable Level Spirit Babies (Storage Limit 350)]

These spirit babies were stored while cultivation with Cha Naixue before entering the Sumeru Realm.

Although their power couldn't cause much harm to a Holy Realm, they could accumulate, with quantity achieving quality transformation.

Yet, he didn't stop there, using Light-Holding Sage-level spiritual power to extract his soul and store the soon-to-be-fragmented soul into [A · Death Spirit Map · Superlimit].

The Death Spirit Map was the fusion of the Abyss of the Dead and the Spiritual Artifact Map.

As for the Abyss of the Dead, it was the spiritual artifact of Black Moon Holy Shepherd Moluo, capable of collecting residual souls and refining them into Undead Knights.

Refining residual souls.... no rule against refining oneself!

After storing them, the last wisp of consciousness in the flesh flickered, causing all blood in his body to boil, flow through his orifices, and converge into a drop of golden blood, stored into the Nash Space.

This pure Dragon Blood was not only the footing for his revival in the Evil River but also a spiritual material that could enhance the power of the fox, with possibly more functions he had yet to comprehend.

Not knowing this before, he had wasted a lot of Dragon Blood.

Now with knowledge, he must carefully preserve every drop.

Thus——

Xia Feng completely killed himself, draining himself dry.

The emaciated, withered corpse fell from mid-air, plunging into the Blood Beast River below, utterly annihilated.

The calamity land's existence timer also ended, the space shattered, and all internal life forms were forcibly ejected.

By this point, Xia Feng had already entered the Nirvana State.

Jinyang Tian and Jin Shiyin looked puzzled, confused by the scene before them.

The fiery vortex dispersed, yet there was no sight of the Black Spade Man.

They did not know Xia Feng had transformed into all things in the world, observing them omnisciently and omnipresently, much like a god.

Unfortunately, the Nirvana time was only ten seconds, and after ten seconds, Xia Feng would be forced to revive.

Jinyang Tian wasn't in a rush, half-closing his eyes, standing quietly in place waiting.

Seeing the two showing no signs of leaving, Xia Feng didn't hesitate, a thought in his mind——

Dragon Clan Spirit Clothes · Myriad Phenomena!

Thousands of tornadoes howled between heaven and earth, dust covering the sky, with one grain of sand quietly appearing within the sand rain, unnoticed by anyone.

In a dozen seconds, the tempest of thousands of tornadoes vanished, terrifying sand rain poured down like waterfalls.

Among them, a grain of sand was buried a hundred meters beneath the Endless Desert.

When using Myriad Phenomena, one must touch the target object for three minutes, and use it within ten minutes, to become the target object.

Since entering the Sumeru Realm, Xia Feng had always been holding a grain of sand, ensuring he could become part of the desert at any time.

"This person is weaker than I anticipated," Jinyang Tian shook his head with a soft voice, seeing that the Black Spade Man had not yet appeared.

Normally, the extent of the Evil Fog should be enough to engulf and annihilate a Venerable One Spirit Master in dozens of seconds.

However, to acquire a Sumeru Seat and possess a rather powerful disguise skill, it shouldn't be just an ordinary Venerable One, barely surviving an Evil Fog assault would seem manageable.

Yet, Jinyang Tian found he had overestimated the Black Spade Man.

"What a pity, I still wanted to remove his mask and see who he really was," Jin Shiyin chuckled, "But then again, he's just a Venerate One, with an inherited seat, no matter how great a disguise skill, his power is still too weak. He's far weaker than Lord Yeli Dong."

"Lord Yeli Dong...."

Jinyang Tianying's eyes slightly narrowed, "That fool, without even reaching the Holy Realm, would suffer the same fate as the Black Spade Man even if he entered this world."

On this note, Jin Shiyin was curious, "Then I'm rather curious, why does your Pillar Country value Ye Li seemingly so highly?"

Jinyang Tian merely shook his head, about to say something.

"Buzz—buzz—"

Then, in the distance, came the booming echoes of war drums, prompting the two to turn their heads.

Under the blazing sun of the Western Heaven, on the horizon of the scorching desert, a furious roar reverberated, causing the whole desert surface to tremble.

"It's starting to close the circle now."

Jin Shiyin looked on with interest, "This level of Calamity Fog Sea, although far weaker than Calamity Land, we can only stay for half a day at most, or there could truly be trouble."

Jinyang Tian shook his head: "That's the aura of the Seven-Eyed Disaster?"

The surprise was evident on Jin Shiyin's face, "Little brother, if we don't run now, when would we?"

He spun around and transformed into the Heavenly Eagle, his gaze given a last glance into the distance.

But how could Xia Feng not be surprised either, discovering disasters inside the Sumeru Realm?

It's understandable to have middle-level Evil Beasts with four or five eyes, yet there is a Seven-Eyed Disaster..... this would be a major force in the Evil Realm.

Could it be trapped here?
