Even though he'd faintly discerned from the conversation between Duan Lingtian and Zi Shang that Duan Lingtian seemed to be able to counter Zi Shang in the Illusory Purgatory today.
But he didn't know how Duan Lingtian countered Zi Shang.
Zi Shang glanced indifferently at Lu Yong yet didn't say anything.
What a joke!
He wasn't stupid to the point of revealing his weakness.
Seeming to have discerned the deep meaning in Zi Shang's eyes, Lu Yong smiled embarrassedly and called out. "Let's go, I'll take you to see Master."
In the spacious courtyard, Zi Shang once again saw the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Feng Wei.
"Vice Fort Master Feng."
Zi Shang nodded indifferently to Feng Wei and wasn't very warm.
Even though Feng Wei was the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort and was a supreme existence to him now.
But since that strand of incomplete soul resided in his body, he knew that even if it was an existence at the seventh level of the Void Transformation Stage or above, it was similarly an existence that was like an ant before a true expert.
Whereas his future was far from something that a mere Void Transformation Stage martial artist could restrain …
He was an existence that wanted to become a Martial Monarch or even Emperor Wu!
"You're Zi Shang?"
Feng Wei's face instantly sank when he saw Zi Shang actually had such a proud attitude when facing him.
Whoosh!
Instantly, a terrifying imposing aura swept out from his body and pressed down onto Zi Shang, and he wanted to make Zi Shang lower his arrogant head.
But unfortunately, he quickly noticed that Zi Shang seemed as if he was utterly unable to notice his imposing aura. From the beginning until the end, Zi Shang had a calm expression, and at the same time, Zi Shang looked at him with a spurious smile.
Instantly, Feng Wei's face sank, and he didn't hold back any longer as he urged his strongest imposing aura to sweep out with the intention of making Zi Shang bow.
But unfortunately, even though his imposing aura was like a storm, Zi Shang still stood towering without moving.
"Vice Fort Master Feng, don't waste your energy … Let's get down to business."
Zi Shang spoke with slight impatience.
A mere Void Transformation Stage martial artist wanted to use his imposing aura to suppress him?
After all, he wasn't alone now, and there was another formidable soul concealed within his body. Even though it was only a strand of incomplete soul, it wasn't something that the imposing aura of a mere Void Transformation Stage martial artist could suppress.
"Purple Decease!"
Right when Feng Wei's eyes emitted killing intent, Lu Yong's face went grim, and he glared furiously at Zi Shang. "Please show some respect when speaking to my Master!"
"Respect?"
Zi Shang glanced indifferently at Lu Yong and laughed with disdain. "Lu Yong, are you even qualified to talk about respect with me? If I knew earlier that you were unable to kill Duan Lingtian in the Illusory Purgatory today, I would absolutely not have let you off! "
"Good … very good!"
Feng Wei glanced deeply at Zi Shang and suppressed the flames of rage in his heart as he said in a low voice, "I heard from this disciple of mine that your strength would increase explosively after that black colored flame brand appeared between your brows? From the First Level Void Interpretation to the Fifth Level Void Interpretation in an instant? "
As he finished speaking, Feng Wei's eyes revealed greed. "If I'm not wrong, you ought to have executed some sort of secret technique, right?"
"Secret skill?"
Zi Shang was stunned for a moment before he smiled disdainfully.
"I know you won't admit it, but I still advise you to obediently hand over that secret technique … Otherwise, this day next year will be the anniversary of your death!"
Feng Wei completely shed all pretenses, and terrifying killing intent arose from his body as it swept towards Zi Shang.
In next to no time, Feng Wei was stunned.
Because he noticed that Zi Shang's expression didn't change in the slightest when facing his killing intent, and Zi Shang seemed as if Zi Shang was fearless.
"You're not afraid of death?"
Feng Wei's face sank.
"No one isn't afraid of death."
Zi Shang shook his head.
"Then why are you still so composed when you're about to die?"
Feng Wei asked with a low voice.
"The reason I'm composed is because I firmly believe that you, Vice Fort Master Feng, won't kill me … Because once you kill me, then not only will you be unable to obtain that secret technique you guessed, you'll even be unable to obtain a treasure that's within easy reach of you, Vice Fort Master Feng!"
Zi Shang spoke confidently.
"Stop trying to be mysterious!"
Feng Wei grunted coldly.
"If I'm not wrong, Vice Fort Master Feng, you've come looking for me mainly because you want to know the ability of that Duan Lingtian, right? Actually, when it comes to dealing with Duan Lingtian, we're all people on the same boat. All of you want Duan Lingtian to die, and I want him to die as well! "
Zi Shang spoke frankly.
"You're extremely smart … But compared to killing Duan Lingtian, I'm more interested in that secret technique you possess."
Feng Wei glanced deeply at Zi Shang.
"Secret technique?"
Zi Shang started laughing. "Vice Fort Master Feng, if you think I know some secret technique, then you're gravely mistaken … Cloud Continent is so huge, besides ordinary human martial artists and the various demon beasts, Vice Fort Master Feng ought to have heard of Variants, right?"
Variants?
Feng Wei's pupils couldn't help but constrict when he heard this.
Even though he'd never seen a Variant of legend with his own two eyes, he'd seen introductions related to Variants in some unorthodox books.
Variants were the product of the union between a human and a demon. Moreover, the probability of them being born was extremely low.
On Cloud Continent, so long as a demon beast broke through to the Void Transformation Stage, it would be a demon that could take human form and be no different than an ordinary human.
After these demons took human form, many of them would mate with humans and give birth to the next generation.
Normally speaking, the union between a human and a demon would either give birth to a pure human or a pure demon beast.
But there were exceptions.
Supposedly, there was a one in ten thousand chance that a variable would appear in the union between a human and a demon, and that variable was the extremely rare Variants on Cloud Continent.
Variants were divided into two types, and they belonged to two extremes.
One of them was mediocre, and it was even to the extent that their natural talent and comprehension ability were far inferior to their parents.
The other type instead possessed an extremely heaven defying cultivation and natural talent. This type of Variant might be a human or a demon beast.
They had a common point, and that was they possessed some sort of extremely terrifying ability. It was an ability they were born with, and it was difficult to replicate and was unique.
According to rumor, this ability was called an Innate Ability!
"What you mean is … You're a Variant? Whereas that ability of yours that's capable of improving your strength in a short period of time is your Innate Ability? "
When Feng Wei looked at Zi Shang once more, his pupils constricted slightly, and his voice was filled with surprise.
After all, the Variant and Innate Ability were things he'd seen in books, and he'd never encountered them in reality.
"I never imagined that Vice Fort Feng would be so knowledgeable and actually know of the Innate Ability of us Variants."
Zi Shang started laughing, laughing extremely brilliantly.
Of course, he was laughing coldly in his heart.
Actually, a moment ago, he didn't know what a Variant was, nor did he know what an Innate Ability was.
All of this was taught to him by the Ghost Flame concealed within his body, and it was only for the sake of deceiving the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort before him.
Of course, no matter if it was a Variant or an Innate Ability, according to Elder Ghost, they really existed.
But Zi Shang wasn't one.
"Since you said that you are an 'anomaly', I would really like to see your 'innate ability'."
Feng Wei stared at Zi Shang with a burning gaze. What he wanted to do the most now was to confirm if Zi Shang's ability was a secret technique or an Innate Ability.
If it was a secret technique, then it would surely have a certain side effect, and he was able to discern it.
On the other hand, an Innate Ability was an ability that Variants were born with, and it didn't have any side effects.
"As you wish!"
Zi Shang nodded. In the next moment, the Origin Energy in his entire body roiled, causing the energy of the heavens and the earth to roil before condensing into 20 ancient horned dragon silhouettes.
First level of the Void Interpretation Stage!
In next to no time, a small black dot started to appear between Zi Shang's brows, and it swiftly grew larger after it appeared before transforming into a strand of black colored flame brand in the end.
Right at this moment, the gaze Feng Wei shot at the phenomenon of the heavens and the earth above Zi Shang changed slightly.
The phenomenon of the heavens and the earth there instantly underwent a tremendous change, and another 50 ancient horned dragon silhouettes instantly appeared by the side of the 20 ancient horned dragon silhouettes.
Merely his Origin Energy was comparable to the strength of 70 ancient horned dragons!
It was precisely the symbol of the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage.
Time silently flowed by.
After half an hour, the black colored flame brand between Zi Shang's brows gradually faded, whereas, the 50 ancient horned dragon silhouettes that appeared above him gradually dispersed, and the Origin Energy that skyrocketed on his body was restrained by more than half.
As for Zi Shang himself, he still had a calm expression, and it was impossible to discern that what he'd done earlier had any side effects on him.
Lu Yong who stood at the side couldn't help but gasp. "Half an hour …"
Never had he imagined that Zi Shang would actually be able to maintain a state of the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage for half an hour.
After all, after Zi Shang erupted with his strength at the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage that day, he'd crushed him in the blink of an eye, and he'd suppressed him to the point he didn't have the slightest strength to fight back.
"It's truly an Innate Ability!"
Feng Wei's pupils constricted, and after he saw Zi Shang didn't suffer any side effects, he believed Zi Shang.
"I truly never imagined that I, Feng Wei, would actually be able to see a Variant of legend in my lifetime. I'm truly fortunate … And that Innate Ability of legend is actually so terrifying that it's capable of allowing a first level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist to advance his strength to the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage in a short period of time!"
Feng Wei sighed, and then he seemed to have thought of something and asked. "According to my knowledge, even if it's the Innate Ability of a Variant, it requires the consumption of Spiritual Force … Does this Innate Ability of yours have any restrictions?"
"It can continue for almost an hour every day."
Zi Shang was prepared since long ago, and he replied calmly.
"Almost an hour every day?"
Feng Wei and Lu Yong's pupils constricted at the same time, and they couldn't help but curse in unison. "Freak!"
"Zi Shang, could it be that Duan Lingtian is a Variant as well?"
Suddenly, Feng Wei seemed to have thought of something, and he couldn't help but ask. "I heard from Yong that you said that Duan Lingtian is able to execute soul skills?"
