Gu Qingfeng stood in place, growing angrier the more he thought about it. Had the duck he had in his hand just flown away?
Did he really think he could kill me in one move? Not even bothering to glance at the corpse?
Wait a minute! That’s not right!
Gu Qingfeng suddenly realized that Demon Pu’s confident turn wasn’t confidence at all—it was a frantic escape!
In Demon Pu’s eyes, he had always believed Gu Qingfeng to possess the Devouring Demon Physique, a rare and powerful body coveted even by the Blood Demon. Naturally, Demon Pu wouldn’t let such an opportunity slip away.
Moreover, as the so-called "number one under the gods," Demon Pu couldn’t possibly fail to sense whether Gu Qingfeng was alive or dead.
Therefore, the truth was clear: Demon Pu had seen that Gu Qingfeng was unharmed and fled in fear!
Sighing, Gu Qingfeng muttered, “Demon Pu, Demon Pu, why couldn’t you be a bit bolder? Try a few more times? What’s with this ‘strike once, flee a thousand miles’ nonsense? Such a fine demon, but alas, you’ve got a brain. Don’t go around boasting about being the number one under the gods anymore—it’s embarrassing!”
He sighed again, feeling the sting of missed opportunity.
After finally reaching the level of soul cultivation where even gods couldn’t harm him, Gu Qingfeng had hoped to push his physical strength to the peak of the Dragon Transformation Realm. With his Qi Gathering Seventh Level cultivation, he could dominate the world in an era where divine beings rarely appeared. The thought alone was thrilling.
But alas, Demon Pu had run away.
With Demon Pu gone, the path to godhood suddenly seemed distant. Where else could he find such a powerful demon?
Demons like Demon Pu—strong, intelligent, and ambitious—were incredibly rare in the world.
After much deliberation, Gu Qingfeng decided he absolutely couldn’t let Demon Pu escape. He would milk Demon Pu for all he was worth, even helping him ascend to godhood if necessary.
With this in mind, Gu Qingfeng once again sensed Demon Pu’s location and noticed that the demon had stopped moving.
He immediately set off toward Demon Pu but paused after just a few steps.
“No, he’s faster than me, and I still have the Soul Tracking Mark on me. If I get too close, he’ll just run again. I need to remove the mark first.”
Gu Qingfeng immediately activated his immensely powerful soul force, infused with a hint of divine intent, to thoroughly scan his soul.
The Soul Tracking Mark was hidden deep within the soul, so subtle that even a Dragon Transformation Realm expert couldn’t detect it. Only those whose souls had undergone a qualitative transformation, reaching the level of godlike invincibility or higher, could find it.
Soon, Gu Qingfeng located the tiny mark hidden within his soul. With a thought, his formidable soul force obliterated the mark, ensuring Demon Pu could no longer track his location.
However, as a Dragon Transformation Realm demon, Demon Pu couldn’t remove the mark Gu Qingfeng had left on his soul, leaving him vulnerable to being tracked.
Even after removing the mark, Gu Qingfeng wasn’t entirely confident. If he got too close, Demon Pu’s keen senses would likely detect him and prompt another escape. Thus, he needed to conceal his aura completely.
Gu Qingfeng took out the Heaven-grade lower-tier spiritual artifact, the Phantom Ghost Mask, and placed it over his face. Instantly, his appearance transformed into one of breathtaking handsomeness.
The Phantom Ghost Mask allowed him to alter his aura at will, so he used it to completely conceal his presence.
Unless someone saw him with their own eyes, sensing his presence would be impossible.
Still, Gu Qingfeng wasn’t satisfied. He wrapped himself in his divine-infused soul force, cutting off all traces of his aura.
Only after all this did he feel at ease.
Now, unless a god themselves were searching for him, no one could detect his presence.
With that, Gu Qingfeng pushed off the ground with immense force.
Boom!
The sheer power of his physical strength created a deep crater in the ground, and the recoil launched him into the air.
As he soared, Gu Qingfeng’s feet stomped on the air, generating sonic booms and propelling him forward like a rocket, disappearing into the horizon.
He flew through the air, the wind beneath his feet acting as a solid surface, providing continuous propulsion.
It was less like flying and more like running through the sky.
His powerful body granted him the ability to tread on the wind.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of sonic booms erupted from beneath Gu Qingfeng’s feet as his speed increased, seemingly reaching a limit.
Finally, with one last sonic boom, the world fell silent.
Gu Qingfeng had broken the sound barrier with his physical body, leaving sound itself behind.
Breaking the sound barrier with pure physical strength!
Had his body truly grown this powerful?
Gu Qingfeng marveled at the thought.
......
In an unnamed, hidden cave, Demon Pu was deep in cultivation. Having just devoured the Blood Demon, he had gained immense power, but it was like a snake trying to swallow an elephant—he needed time to digest and stabilize his newfound strength.
As he cultivated, Demon Pu suddenly frowned. He realized the Soul Tracking Mark he had placed on Gu Qingfeng had vanished.
However, he didn’t dwell on it. After all, gods could easily remove such marks, so it wasn’t worth worrying about. Still, the sudden inability to sense Gu Qingfeng’s movements left him uneasy.
But when he glanced at the layers of protective formations outside the cave, he felt somewhat reassured.
He had fled thousands of miles and set up countless formations. Even a god would struggle to find him here.
Moreover, when he had escaped, Gu Qingfeng hadn’t pursued him immediately, instead staying in place for a long time. It seemed Gu Qingfeng had no intention of capturing him.
After comforting himself, Demon Pu focused on consolidating his cultivation.
Time passed slowly, and just as Demon Pu was fully immersed in his cultivation, Gu Qingfeng arrived unnoticed.
Gu Qingfeng was clever. When he was a thousand miles away from Demon Pu, he stopped using his sound-barrier-breaking speed to avoid drawing attention. Instead, he ran on the ground, quietly closing the distance.
Thanks to the Phantom Ghost Mask and his godlike soul, not a trace of his aura leaked out. Without Demon Pu’s knowledge, he had reached the cave entrance.
Gu Qingfeng stood at the cave entrance but didn’t rush in. Through his All-Seeing Eyes, he saw over a dozen layers of formations at the entrance.
There were warning formations, defensive formations, and formations to conceal aura, stacked like layers of a cake.
Gu Qingfeng knew nothing about formations. If he barged in recklessly, Demon Pu would notice him before he got close.
Fortunately, his All-Seeing Eyes could perceive the laws of the world, making it easy to see through the formations.
Under the gaze of his All-Seeing Eyes, the nodes and weak points of the formations became clear. Gu Qingfeng’s soul force, like a tidal wave, infiltrated the formations through these points. In mere moments, all the formations were silently dismantled.
Smiling, Gu Qingfeng slipped into the cave.
Inside, Demon Pu, deep in cultivation, suddenly felt a pang of unease, as if something terrible was about to happen.
Abruptly, he opened his eyes and froze.
Before him stood a face so handsome it could shake the heavens, smiling at him with a grin.
