It could be said that there was nothing Du Feng could improve on within the Powang realm. His sword techniques had also reached their limits. The Two Ultimate Techniques of the Grand-Orient Empire were too ferocious, and could drain all the inner Yuan in his body in one go. Even though he had reached the peak of the Powang realm, and the inner Yuan in his dantian was even more abundant, he could only unleash one fatal attack.
So the next thing he needed to do was to break through to the Ethereal Transformation realm. Of course, breaking through to the Ethereal Transformation realm was not just about having enough inner Yuan. It also required a certain level of enlightenment. And enlightenment was something that happened in an instant. Some people did it in the blink of an eye, while others had to wait decades or even centuries, stuck at the ninth level of the Powang realm.
In these three months, Du Feng had some new ideas on how to reconstruct his body. He felt that he could create a good body for Murong Mansha.
"Really, cousin? Can I come back to life?"
Murong Mansha was extremely excited when she heard this. Although her soul was in the world of the necklace, she could still see Du Feng every day. But without a physical body, she could only see. She couldn't touch or smell him. She couldn't touch his body or smell his scent. And she couldn't eat mutton and drink wine with him. Life was much less fun.
"Mm, I want to go to the primordial forest again."
The reason Du Feng wanted to go to the primordial forest was because he remembered that there was something there that could help Murong Mansha reconstruct her body. This thing was called a Human-faced Peach. It was a type of peach that looked like a human head. Each of them was the size of a human head after they matured, and they even had a smiling face on them. Those who didn't know better would think that it was a bunch of human heads hanging on a tree.
Human-faced Peaches grew in the area where the Class 9 demonic beasts lived. That area was called Monkey Mountain. It was not a tall mountain, but it covered a lot of land. The ones that occupied Monkey Mountain were Class 9 demonic beasts, Human-faced Monkeys. Although they had not evolved into demonic cultivators, they had human faces. It was said that it was because they ate Human-faced Peaches for a long time that they had human faces.
It was clearly a monkey with a furry body, but it had a face that was exactly the same as a human's. Just thinking about it made one feel that it was quite terrifying. Most importantly, they were Level Nine Demonic Beasts, which was equivalent to a human Ascension Realm martial artist. In theory, ninth level demonic beasts would not take the initiative to attack Powang realm martial artists. But that was only in theory. If Du Feng really snatched their Human-Faced Peaches, things would be hard to say.
The easiest way to find a place for one's soul to reside in was to capture someone, destroy their soul, and then possess their body. However, in that case, Cultivation would be dragged down by the opponent's body, and his appearance would change. There was another crude method, which was to smash the body and reassemble it. Dozens of people's bodies could be assembled into a satisfactory body.
Gui Gu Lun Hai, in order to forge a powerful body for his grandson Gui Gu Nansheng, did not hesitate to sacrifice dozens of outstanding young martial artists. It could be said that his methods were extremely cruel. Du Feng wouldn't do that. He couldn't hurt others in order to save Murong Mansha. Otherwise, he would be no different from Gui Gu Lunhai.
Moreover, Murong Mansha would also feel that it was a bad habit to have other flesh and bones growing all over his body. So in the end, he decided to use the pure materials from the Human-Faced Peach Tree to reconstruct her body. If it was in the past, Du Feng would not dare to take this risk. But now that he had reached the peak condition of the Powang realm, he was confident that he could go to the ninth level demonic beast area.
"It's too dangerous, better not go."
The danger that Murong Mansha mentioned was not only the danger of the demonic beasts in the primordial forest. Because Du Feng had provoked the Gui Gu family, and he might even be targeted by the Life Moon Union. The primordial forest was a lawless area, and one could encounter any kind of enemy in there. Although she wanted to restore her body, she was not willing to let her cousin take the risk.
"Don't worry, I have a good idea."
Du Feng indeed had a bad idea. He used a sound transmission talisman to secretly call Hong Waner from the front shop to the room in the backyard. He told him to stay here and not go anywhere until he returned. The method was actually very simple. Du Feng let Hong Waner pretend to be him in the room, and he would change his appearance to Hong Waner's, using his identity to go to the primordial forest.
If it was in the past, this method would not work, because Hong Waner was a permanent resident of the southern city, and Du Feng was a temporary resident. But now that everyone was a permanent resident, there was a chance to fish in troubled waters.
This method was indeed effective. From the moment Du Feng left the shop, no one paid attention to him. Even the city guards did not greet him when they saw him. Because Hong Waner did not have that much face, Du Feng could be said to be very low-key when he went out in his appearance.
Just like the previous time, he teleported to the Moonlake City. Nothing much had happened here, although the matter of Li Qiuchan colluding with a few big families' young masters had been exposed by Du Feng. But the ordinary martial artists did not have the courage to overthrow those big families. At most, he would secretly gloat over the deaths of those young masters.
The heroic and righteous Li Qiuchan was dead, and the story about her was soon forgotten. Du Feng had reason to believe that there would be new teams at the entrance of the primordial forest, and their methods would probably be even more ruthless than Li Qiuchan.
This was because the young masters of the big families needed such teams to do their missions. Where there was demand, there would be a market, and where there was a market, there would be people who would take the risk.
"Let's go in!"
Things went smoothly. After paying ten black crystals, Du Feng successfully crossed the wooden bridge. The permanent identity of the southern city was indeed more economical than the temporary identity. Although he did not lack that bit of money, it was better to spend less than more.
There was another important reason why his disguise as Hong Waner went so smoothly this time. It was because Du Feng's Buddha Light Palm Technique had been cultivated to the tenth level. This tenth level technique had nothing to do with killing enemies, but was a type of breath control technique. Breath control was also a type of meditation. After mastering it, one could adjust one's Cultivation at will. Of course, this random adjustment referred to lowering or hiding the Cultivation. It was impossible to adjust from the Powang Realm to the Ascension Realm, but it could be adjusted from the Powang Realm to the Heaven Seizing Realm or the lower Void Sea Realm.
Hong Waner himself was at the Powang Realm, but his Cultivation was a few levels lower than Du Feng's. After adjusting it through the Breath Control Technique, it was almost the same as the information recorded in his identity card. Even the few guards guarding the wooden bridge were unable to distinguish the real from the fake, and were successfully fooled by Du Feng.
