Chapter 265: Path Of The Dead

“Little Demoness!” Feng Feiyun’s lips slightly twitched.

The crimson river resembled a mirror. Some smoke was lingering above and the image on the surface slowly disappeared. However, it left behind a lasting impression to the three spectators. Little Demoness had actually climbed to the top of the peak!

Was she not afraid of the fatal curse?

Feng Feiyun wanted to leave, but after seeing that image, he stopped and noticed that Little Demoness’ pace was very bizarre. Despite going on the winding path to the top, she was not attacked by the lightning.

Was this a special way to ascend the mountain? How did she know this method and why was she going there?

“Those movements were very strange. How about we follow her footsteps, maybe we can even climb to the top?” Bi Ningshuai was quite excited and thought about going up there for the Daomization Tree.

He took out the exalted pot to try again. He flew over the bloody river and descended to the other side right onto the first footstep of Little Demoness. There were no attacks against him this time.

He excitedly exclaimed: “Haha, just as expected!”

This was the tomb of the first Feng Clan Master, so it was full of danger. After pondering for a bit, Feng Feiyun also floated over the large river. When he looked down to look at the gigantic skeleton, he felt another chill.

He quickly looked away and crossed the water with haste. Meanwhile, Bi Ningshuai had made it very far on the narrow path towards the peak; it was as if he was afraid that Feng Feiyun would take his Daomization Tree.

Wang Meng followed right after them and asked Feng Feiyun: “Uncle, that little girl was the Feng Clan’s Demoness. Just what is this place?”

“The dangers of this place are no less than that of an ancient forbidden ground. Don’t ask too much, just follow me.” Feng Feiyun was very careful along the way and observed the topography of this area in order to find clues.

Normally, lightning would come down from the sky. However, the ones from here had the shape of humans, so it was quite strange. It gave off a sense of chaos in the Yin and Yang as well as the world’s order.

“Never go against the will of the heaven and earth, otherwise…” Feng Feiyun was thinking this in his mind. Suddenly, there was a scream that came from up front.

A bloody mist rose into the air! Bi Ningshuai was attacked once more for some reason. There was a large bloody hole in his chest; he didn’t even have the chance to summon his pot before being blown away. If Feng Feiyun didn’t catch him, he would have fallen into the bloody river.

“Why, why?! I clearly followed that little girl’s steps, how come she wasn’t attacked but I was?” He swallowed a first-rank pill and the hole in his chest rapidly closed.

“Not good, blood is gushing out of our previous footprints?!” Wang Meng was at the very back, so when he turned around, he noticed that their footprints were sinking into the ground with blood oozing from them.

This was a truly frightening scene.

“It looks like there is a worldly reversal taking place here!” Feng Feiyun frowned. This small path has left the mountain, but the naked eye couldn’t discern it. It might not lead to the peak and instead to a different realm with no way back.

The laws on this path kept on changing. It had changed once more after Little Demoness’ trip. If they continued following her shadow, they would be punished.

“I think… we should go back.” Bi Ningshuai felt that something was heading south and wanted to run.

Feng Feiyun replied: “We can’t. The path behind us has turned into blood. It is even more dangerous to go back the way we came.”

Bi Ningshuai was skeptical of this claim, but after seeing the bloody pits that replaced their footprints in addition to suffering twice, he became much smarter.

“It would have been nice if I had learned the Minor Change Art as I would definitely be able to break the worldly reversal here.” Feng Feiyun trained in the Eight Arts Volume, something that could change the momentum of the heaven and earth.

Bi Ningshuai asked: “How close are you?”

Feng Feiyun replied: “The Yellow Earth Art isn’t yet complete, so only around four percent of the Minor Change Art.”

The Minor Change’s number was forty and thirty-seven are used. [1. Divination numbers in the Book of Change. I have no idea how the author is using this phrase, but we might find out later. This is just a literal translation for now.]

“That’s still okay, I guess it is up to you now to see if we can get the Daomization Tree.” Bi Ningshuai didn’t dare to be in front, so he hid behind Feng Feiyun instead.

Feng Feiyun channeled his phoenix gaze and used his five elemental arts to prepare the momentum of this area. He carved three lotus platforms on the ground
