Chapter 167: Turning into a Handsome Young Man
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The process of cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture could forcefully change a person’s physique.
As long as one could endure the pain and condense the Human Emperor Blood, their physical condition could change in one fell swoop.
Moreover, the Human Emperor Scripture was extremely overbearing. Once one cultivated it, it was almost impossible to cultivate other cultivation techniques.
!!
The Human Emperor Blood would forcefully kill even the Demon-Devouring Gu that resided in his body.
Any cultivation technique that he cultivated before, all traces would disappear into nothingness. This was the Human Emperor Scripture’s overbearing nature.
Once he set foot on it, there was no turning back.
Zhou Feng could not help but ask himself in his heart, ‘Should I try to find a better cultivation technique than this Human Emperor Scripture?’
The Human Emperor Scripture was undoubtedly the best choice if he did not want to sell his freedom and be restricted by so many rules and regulations. It could even eliminate all the shortcomings of his body in one go.
“I don’t think I need to consider further!”
After pondering for a while, Zhou Feng decided to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture.
First of all, his battle system was compatible with the Human Emperor Scripture, his pa.s.sive skills could heal the injuries caused by the cultivation technique, and it could solve the problem riddling Zhou Feng’s mind. If he didn’t cultivate it, he would be a fool.
As for the follow-up cultivation technique, he would deal with it when the time came!
Perhaps, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion would have news about the follow-up cultivation technique of the Human Emperor Scripture. As long as he paid a sufficient price, there should be news about it.
Since Zhou Feng actually decided to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture, he planned to give it a try.
Although cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture without Malevolent Earth Qi wouldn’t have a good effect, he could familiarize himself with it first.
Zhou Feng first gathered his soul power as it was recorded in the scroll. Then, he continuously used the condensed soul power to stimulate the Blood Qi in his body while devouring the surrounding Spiritual Qi.
That special operation method seemed to have awakened the emperor of ancient times. Zhou Feng suddenly felt that he was enshrouded in a fog.
Then, the meridians and mysteries of his body were revealed to him one by one.
This feeling was as if his body had been dissected and then displayed in full detail in front of him.
This feeling was really wonderful.
The large amount of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi that Zhou Feng had acc.u.mulated in his body had all been excavated at this moment.
Because of various reasons, the Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi had acc.u.mulated in the depths of his body.
Normally, they were a burden to Zhou Feng, as he could not circulate them freely, even preventing him from improving.
But now, they were all circulated and started to burn.
The degree of craziness of this burning sensation was even greater than the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art.
Zhou Feng’s Demon-Devouring Gu could not stand it and drilled out of his flesh, leaving his body.
The Ice Heart Gu in his body also drilled out.
If it stayed in Zhou Feng’s body, it would die.
When in a life and death crisis, even Gus with lower intelligence would make a choice.
Zhou Feng’s heart lost blood at an alarming rate, while his vitality started to drop rapidly.
The scariest thing was that Zhou Feng did not react at all. He looked like an old monk in meditation!
The chaotic Blood Qi and heterogenous Spiritual Qi were being forcibly compressed.
However, Zhou Feng’s body, which he thought was strong, could not withstand this kind of pressure at all, and it began to show signs of crumbling inch by inch.
This was still the body that had been pa.s.sively and repeatedly tempered by Old Skin.
If not for Old Skin’s pa.s.sive effect, Zhou Feng would have died suddenly from that action just now.
This Human Emperor Scripture was too overbearing!
No wonder no one was willing to cultivate it. This was the result of not using Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate.
In addition, Zhou Feng still had all sorts of recovery-type pa.s.sive skills. His Self-Healing Const.i.tution and the other pa.s.sive skills were triggered when his body collapsed.
The collapsed body continued to recover with great difficulty.
But even so, Zhou Feng would die an unnatural death if this situation did not stop.
‘This can’t go on!’
At that critical moment, Zhou Feng suddenly woke up.
Originally, his blood was about to condense into a golden thread, but it dissipated because of his sudden awakening.
‘I am…’
The awakened Zhou Feng felt exhausted.
His Blood Qi was almost dried up, and his Spiritual Qi had been exhausted. There was not even much soul power left.
His Blood Qi, Spiritual Qi, and soul power had been completely consumed!
What was that state just now?
Zhou Feng seemed to have been able to see through the secrets of his physical body earlier, and a ball of fire had condensed in his chest.
‘Is it because of the Human Emperor Scripture?’
Zhou Feng casually found some useless medicinal herbs in his storage ring and then digested them with his Level-2 Gluttony.
After digesting them, the produced Blood Qi continuously replenished his already dried-up physical body.
After that, the pa.s.sive Tenacious Heart was also triggered with a large amount of Blood Qi as support.
Zhou Feng, who was already on his last breath, returned to top condition at the speed of the naked eye.
At the same time that his injuries recovered, Zhou Feng felt that his body seemed to be different.
This was a smooth feeling, like a person whose nose had been stuffed for more than ten years suddenly had a clear nose!
A large amount of Blood Qi was boiling in his body, and his vitality was recovering rapidly.
A stream of light flashed in his eyes.
‘Is this the power of the Human Emperor Scripture?’
Other than the chaotic Blood Qi being smoothed out, his originally contaminated soul power had also become pure.
Zhou Feng felt as if he had undergone a complete transformation.
The various disadvantages caused by cultivating and using the Demon-Devouring Technique had already been eliminated by more than half!
Zhou Feng stretched out his palm. His body was sparkling and flawless—his yellowish skin had turned into white jade.
‘This is… me?’
Zhou Feng took out a mirror and looked at his current appearance.
To be honest, he was shocked.
In the mirror was a handsome young man. There was a hint of heroic spirit between his brows.

His flesh and blood were shining with a crystal-like light. From time to time, some kind of divine light flashed as well.
When did he become so handsome?
Although his appearance was not much different from before, he looked like an incomparably handsome youth at this moment.
This was a level that would cause countless young women and girls to blush.
‘The Human Emperor Scripture also has a beauty function? And if I remember correctly, I have a pa.s.sive that adds charm!’
Although becoming handsome was a reason to celebrate, Zhou Feng felt that this did not seem to be a good thing for him.
It would be easy to attract attention wherever he went with such a face and the pa.s.sive Amorous Prodigal Heart.
Zhou Feng wanted the most to keep a low profile and lie low. He didn’t want so many people to pay attention to him.
He had already learned his lesson through the Holy Maiden Green Lotus incident.
‘Should I be wearing a mask from now on? This will attract more attention!’
Zhou Feng contemplated for some time and decided to push it to the back of his mind.
After the experiment just now, the Human Emperor Scripture was indeed very suitable for him. Or it could be said that it was tailor-made for him. If an ordinary person cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, they might still be paralyzed.
However, Zhou Feng was now completely fine and could even continue to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture.
This proved that cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture was the right choice.
Next, Zhou Feng could inquire about the Malevolent Earth Qi, but before that, he still needed to refine pills to acc.u.mulate resources.
Zhou Feng’s recovery this time required a large amount of Blood Qi.. His storage ring, which had originally been filled to the brim, was now almost completely empty.
