Chapter 20 - 16. Pleasure_2

Chapter 20: 16. Pleasure_2``` "Since that's the case, human, let's make a deal." "Deal?" Xia Feng was puzzled. "Exactly." Flap flap~~ Lady Black Crow danced her feathers and settled back on the branch, looking down with a smile, "I can see that you're in dire need of high-density Evil Power, but you can't stay here for long, can you?" Xia Feng nodded: "So?" "Do you see that Spirit Array over there?" Xia Feng followed Lady Black Crow's gaze and noticed a blood-red platform about a meter in diameter not far away, with sacred and intricate patterns etched on it. "This is a 'Spirit Summoning Array' made from Abyss Stone, called 'The Gateway to Worlds'. As long as you gather the summoning materials and inscribe the Array, you can open this door at any place in the world and enter this forbidden land. The required materials are very simple, a total of five kinds, namely faded ink, elephant-fish blood, Infinite Stone, the Spiritual Particles of the Dragon God, and World Tree branch powder." Lady Black Crow rambled on, and Xia Feng roughly understood. He pointed to the grey-haired woman on the Divine Throne, "So, you want me to come here every day to draw her Evil Power?" Could there really be such a thing as a windfall from the heavens? Though surprised, he couldn't help but be puzzled by Lady Black Crow's intentions. "What's the matter, don't you want to?" "I'm willing, sure." Xia Feng suddenly had a wild thought and asked dubiously, "But I have a question, this Evil Power... it isn't being used to seal the Evil Dragon, is it?" At this point, he felt it might be possible. His eyes widened, "Are you trying to get me to break the seal?" "Heh~ You're overthinking this." Lady Black Crow scoffed disdainfully, "With your meager abilities, even if you absorbed for tens of thousands of years, you couldn't deplete all of His Evil Power." "Then why..." "While it may not break the seal, awakening Him is still possible," Lady Black Crow said with a slightly heavy tone. "Awaken the Evil Dragon?" Xia Feng frowned. Although he couldn't rashly judge what kind of dragon the Evil Dragon was, being sealed here, at least there was a 50% chance it wasn't any kind dragon... After musing for a moment, he coughed and said, "Well, Lady Black Crow, you might not be aware, but the world outside... doesn't have a very good opinion of Him, calling Him the Evil Dragon. You might also not know that I care a lot about reputation. If people found out I was the one who awakened the Evil Dragon, then—" "You haven't undergone Spiritual Unsealing, have you? I have a way to make it 100% successful for you," Lady Black Crow stated indifferently. "That's not impossible!" Xia Feng changed his tune immediately, his dark pupils shining, "Lady Black Crow, you really are a great person! I am willing to forsake my precious reputation to help you!" Lady Black Crow: "..." Spiritual Unsealing, the full name for soul unsealing, implies that every person's soul contains the power of mystical Spiritual Energy, which can only be utilized if released through a special method to form a "Spiritual Artifact". Each person's "Spiritual Artifact" is different, and even if he had synchronized with Mu Qingtong's power, his "Spiritual Artifact" would be different from Mu Qingtong's. This might also be the only way Mu Qingtong could outpace him. Similarly, this was the only way he could surpass the Destructive Witch. Normally, to undergo Spiritual Unsealing and summon one's own "Spiritual Artifact", it was only possible to sense the "Spiritual Artifact" and release it during moments of extreme emotional fluctuation or the instant of death. And this 'possibility' had an extremely arbitrary chance. Some Spirit Masters went through hundreds of life-or-death crises in their lifetimes without ever successfully completing a Spiritual Unsealing, while others succeeded on their first brush with death. To summarize in two words: it's fate. So when Lady Black Crow said she could help him achieve a 100% successful Spiritual Unsealing, naturally, he was thrilled. As for whether awakening the evil Demon Dragon might not be too good... well, he has a flexible moral compass. One second he could think it wasn't good, and the next, he could think it was very good, extremely good, excellent even! Besides, he did indeed need a constant supply of Evil Power from the body of Evil Dragon Miss. It was an entirely win-win deal, and he saw no reason to refuse. "This is a branch from the World Tree." Lady Black Crow bit off a branch with her beak and tossed it down, "Crush it into powder when you use it; 1g is enough each time you inscribe the Array. As for the faded ink, elephant-fish blood, and Infinite Stone, you'll have to find those yourself. Likewise, the dosage is 1g each." "And the Spiritual Particles of the Dragon God?" Xia Feng asked. Lady Black Crow looked towards the Divine Throne: "Touch Her hair." Xia Feng did as instructed, and as Lady Black Crow chanted a strange passage, a wisp of cloud-grey hair from the woman on the Divine Throne disintegrated in Xia Feng's hands, turning into Spiritual Particles that surged into his forehead. Only then did he realize, quite shockingly, that his initial crazed desire to devour Evil Dragon Miss had completely dissipated, and he even felt somewhat indifferent. Could this be the so-called— Sage time! Flap flap— Lady Black Crow once again flew down in front of Xia Feng, her dark eyes locked onto his pupils, her languid voice casually intoned, "Human boy, don't resist, this is the knowledge to inscribe the Array for 'The Gateway to Worlds.' Remember it." Xia Feng's head throbbed, he instinctively clutched it and bent over, sweating profusely. So this was what it felt like to have knowledge forcibly inserted? So full, so bloated, so painful... It took him a long while to recover, a completely different sensation from when he synchronized with Mu Qingtong's power. When Mu Qingtong infused him with knowledge, it was a pleasure, a comfortable delight. But Lady Black Crow was different, very rough! Xia Feng shook his head and looking up, said, "Alright, then, Lady Black Crow, what exactly is the method for a 100% Spiritual Unsealing?" "Oh, that," Lady Black Crow flittered back to the branch, her lazy female voice chuckled, "I'll tell you next time you come in." ``` Searᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
