Chapter 795: Brother-in-law

"I guarantee ten times the compensation if it's fake, but what if you can't make decisions on your end?" Chu Feng's audacity was so great that even Ouyang Feng couldn't bear it; he was actually arguing seriously with the silver-haired girl.

The Toad rolled his eyes, crossed his arms, and with the black turtle shell on his back, leisurely strode with a swan-like gait, glancing at Chu Feng with a look of utter disdain.

The silver-haired girl confidently declared, "Of course it's real! Here, I also offer ten-fold compensation for anything fake. Besides my biological older sister, I have a whole bunch of cousins who are pretty good-looking!"

And then... she paid dearly!

Ying Zhexian picked her up and started beating her, grabbing her ear. Since she was merely a soul body, she was yanked directly into mid-air for a severe thrashing.

"Ouch, ouch, sister, please stop! I'm doing this for your own good. Just think, if he truly possesses both Yin and Yang energies, you two could cultivate together as Dao companions and unleash the Seven Treasures Divine Art, which would allow you to conquer the world! Why aren't you grateful? Oh, it hurts so much, stop! Ying Zhexian, if you hit me one more time, I'll tell everyone how slender your waist is, how long your legs are, and how perky your bottom is – I'll give them the exact measurements!"

Ying Xiaoxiao couldn't take the beating anymore, so she bared her teeth in a threatening grimace and struggled desperately.

*Thump, thump, thump...* This only resulted in her getting another severe beating!

Ouyang Feng passed by, elegantly striding with his swan-like gait and carrying his black turtle shell, and quietly asked, "Can you tell me why she hit you again!"

"Go to hell, you son of Jun Tuo, get away from me! Wuwu... It hurts so much!" Ying Xiaoxiao cried, wiping away tears.

Damn it! Ouyang Feng was about to strike with a "swan spreading wings" move, but he was instantly swept away by a five-colored divine light.

Then, Chu Feng walked over, smiling elegantly, intending to intercede for her. After all, the silver-haired girl had "good intentions," offering her sister to him.

However, a single sentence from Ying Xiaoxiao made his face darken. She declared, "You human trafficker, I've only been bribed by you this far. Don't come to me with such schemes again."

Chu Feng froze in astonishment on the spot. What was going on?

Ying Zhexian's murderous gaze swept over him, her beautiful eyes sparkling with dazzling five-colored light.

Chu Feng immediately realized that the wretched child was just dragging him into it to avoid another beating! He then glared back and straightforwardly suggested, "Search her soul. We need to cleanse the Yin energy anyway, and searching her soul would also serve to temper her. Let's see if she's lying or if I'm the one trying to bribe her."

"Chu Feng, you great devil, you're utterly ruthless! I... *sobs*, Sister, please stop hitting me. Wasn't I just worried because you never seem to get married? Oh, it hurts so much! Not that you can't get married, how could the third most beautiful woman under the starry sky not find a husband? I was just afraid you'd fall into a trap and marry just anyone, so I wanted to find a good Dao companion for you—someone you could cultivate with, someone with shared aspirations. Look, this handsome young man was originally part of my personal collection, but I'm giving him directly to you. Aren't we good sisters? Ah... you're still hitting me, Ying Zhexian, I'll fight you! Wuwu... I can't win, I'm so pitiful."

Ying Xiaoxiao wailed and howled, then finally seized an opportunity to escape, immediately clinging to Chu Feng and yelling, "Hurry and save me!"

Chu Feng picked her up and, on behalf of her sister, gave her another good beating.

Ying Xiaoxiao pouted, her eyes spitting fire, looking as if she wanted to devour Chu Feng whole.

What Ying Zhexian said next made Chu Feng stare blankly.

"If you truly possess these two rare natural substances, the Yin and Yang energies, perhaps we could study them together and see if we can restore the Seven Treasures Divine Art."

Chu Feng was in a daze, while Ouyang Feng vigorously swallowed a mouthful of soul saliva, nearly choking himself.

Ying Xiaoxiao instantly bristled with indignation, exclaiming, "Are you still my biological sister? I introduced the great demon Chu to you for your own benefit, and you beat me so mercilessly, yet in the end, didn't you just accept him with a smile?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ying Zhexian once again caused a large bump to appear on her forehead, and in pain, Ying Xiaoxiao lay on the forest floor, rolling around defiantly, refusing to get up.

"He and I are simply researching the Seven Treasures Divine Art; you're just a child with overly complicated thoughts," Ying Zhexian reprimanded her.

"Pfft, you think I believe that? Fine, even if I believe you, I certainly don't trust Chu Feng, that big-tailed wolf. Given the nature of this human trafficker and master thief, who leaves nothing but desolation in his wake, do you truly think he'll let you go? Sister, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you won't escape his grasp!"

Damn it! Chu Feng stood by, his face as dark as could be; his reputation had been thoroughly ruined by this little girl.

"Wait, Sister, don't tell me you're doing this willingly?" the silver-haired girl added, causing her sister, Ying Zhexian's, face to darken as well.

The silver-haired girl quickly scrambled to her feet, finding an excuse to save face while simultaneously changing the subject. Looking at Chu Feng, she said, "Alright, let's see these two so-called rare natural substances you possess."

Chu Feng replied, "The two substances I acquired seem to have fused with my physical body, or perhaps they were carried over by my soul. I'm unsure how to release or test them."

"That's simple," Ying Xiaoxiao said. Without Ying Zhexian needing to elaborate, Ying Xiaoxiao immediately taught him an incantation, revealing a glimpse of the Demi-Immortal Clan's profound heritage.

Legend has it that their ancestors originated from the Yang Realm, and ancient tablets within their clan are even inscribed with records of past events.

Chu Feng followed the instructions, and as his soul resonated, he instantly saw a wisp of radiant light emerge, followed by another, distinct and with opposing properties.

At that moment, Ying Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, feeling somewhat overwhelmed. The two wisps of light flickered, sometimes blazing intensely, sometimes dimming, as they floated within Chu Feng's soul aura.

One wisp was the Light of Purgatory, unmistakably bearing the Yin attribute!

The other wisp originated from the Yang Realm Seed. When Chu Feng was in seclusion within the cave mansion in Blazing Phoenix City, he allowed the Yang Realm Seed to take root and sprout, eventually feeding a wisp of energy back to him.

At that time, he had used this wisp of energy to master a mental attack technique!

Ying Zhexian's expression turned serious. She approached personally, carefully sensing the two wisps of energy, and finally, her complexion changed!

"Rare natural substances, and truly possessing both Yin and Yang attributes!"

Her words immediately made the silver-haired girl exclaim, and she pounced onto Chu Feng like a little opportunist, saying, "Brother-in-law, let me see them! Lend them to me for a hundred years of cultivation!"

She called him "brother-in-law"? Ouyang Feng's eyes widened, and he looked at Ying Zhexian, anticipating the satisfying sight of that wretched child getting another beating.

"Ah..." Ying Xiaoxiao was indeed beaten again, but not for long, as Chu Feng intervened and saved her.

"Are you really protecting your sister-in-law?!" Ouyang Feng taunted, stirring up trouble.

"Get over there!" Chu Feng kicked him away, then humbly sought advice from Ying Zhexian on how to cultivate the supreme secret scripture together.

Of course, he accidentally mispronounced the character for "together" in "cultivate together" as the character for "dual," immediately drawing murderous glares, especially as a five-colored divine light spread out, almost striking his head.

Chu Feng quickly said, "A slip of the tongue. Let's talk about cultivation instead; only Ouyang Feng enjoys hearing about romance and poetic matters."

The Toad mumbled incoherently with frustration.

"What are you dawdling about? Move aside. I'm discussing the method of joint cultivation with Immortal Ying," Chu Feng said earnestly, pushing him aside.

Ouyang Feng stomped his foot, cursing, "Why do I always have to take the blame?!"

"You're the one carrying a large black pot around, wandering everywhere and poking your nose into things. Who else is there to blame?" Chu Feng glanced at him sidelong.

"Oh, you're making your Uncle Ouyang furious! This is the Black Tortoise Divine Armor, alright?!" The Toad was utterly unconvinced and truly wanted to fight him to the death.

Then, Chu Feng earnestly consulted Ying Zhexian. He deeply hoped to master the Light of Yin and Yang, acquire a trump card, and even restore the Seven Treasures Divine Art.

Ying Zhexian explained, "Whether you wish to learn the Light of Yin and Yang or the Five-Colored Divine Light, both require starting with the Seven Treasures Divine Art."

Graceful and exquisitely beautiful, radiating an ethereal aura, she softly explained that both the Light of Yin and Yang and the Five-Colored Divine Light were derived from the Seven Treasures Divine Art, which is why their power was world-shattering.

This made Chu Feng incredibly solemn, as he increasingly felt that the so-called Seven Treasures Divine Art was truly extraordinary; once mastered, its power would likely be unfathomable.

However, soon, when Ying Zhexian began to describe the seven corresponding scriptures of the Seven Treasures Divine Art, Chu Feng was startled, because... some of the scriptures seemed familiar!

"Why do I feel like the Ox Demon Fist and Flood Dragon Demon Fist are included among them?" he asked, greatly surprised.

He then recalled what Yellow Ox had told him years ago: each of the seven fist techniques was formidable, but their true terror lay in their combination. Once united, their power would be unimaginably chaotic and terrifying.

Yellow Ox had also mentioned that the seven techniques were inherently one. Years ago, seven great saints discovered a strange tree covered in circulating runes. Each of the seven saints took a branch to cultivate, which then gave rise to techniques like the Ox Demon Fist, the Flood Dragon Demon Fist, the Roc Demon Fist, and others.

"Seven techniques manifested from a single tree... is this the Seven Treasures Divine Art?!"

Clearly, Ying Zhexian knew what he was thinking and explained, "In fact, the Daoist, Buddhist, and Corpse Clans all later made moves, intending to collect that tree for comprehensive study."

It was evident that the seven great saints couldn't hold onto the branches they had acquired; they were taken from them.

Later, the Demi-Immortal Clan also launched an attack, cleverly seizing the reassembled strange tree from the Corpse Clan. In reality, it was an energy tree that manifested cultivation methods.

"The fist techniques developed by the seven great saints were indeed world-shattering and unparalleled in power, but they were still missing a crucial element. They had not discovered the ultimate seven scriptures that, when merged, form not just a fist technique, but the Seven Treasures Divine Art."

The Demi-Immortal Clan subsequently collected this item.

Furthermore, they had reason to suspect that the energy tree might have been a treasure left behind by their progenitor when they fled from the Yang Realm.

Their ancestral tablets mentioned a strange tree, though the records were unclear.

"Your ancestors fled from the Yang Realm into the Yin Realm. Could it be because they possessed a treasure and brought that strange tree with them, making them targets?" Chu Feng speculated.

"That's a possibility; my clan has also made that same speculation," Ying Zhexian nodded.

The true nature of events was no longer important. After so many years, who would still remember what happened back then?

Of course, once they entered the Yang Realm, things would be less certain. The great powers there were incredibly formidable; anyone audacious enough to pursue someone bearing the Seven Treasures Divine Art would undoubtedly be defying the heavens.

"It's truly impressive that you were able to deduce Resonance Technique from the Ox Demon Fist and Spiral Technique from the Flood Dragon Demon Fist," Ying Zhexian remarked.

Chu Feng had already told her the truth, not concealing that he had learned both the Ox Demon Fist and the Flood Dragon Demon Fist.

Next, Chu Feng diligently memorized the Seven Treasures Divine Art, which comprised seven short scriptures. He felt this was something comparable to the top-tier breathing techniques of the Yang Realm!

"Everyone says that once a supreme breathing technique is cultivated to its pinnacle, divine energy will spontaneously surge, and profound arts will naturally form. However, trying to deduce the Seven Treasures Divine Art from that alone is likely unrealistic."

Chu Feng believed that the value of the Seven Treasures Divine Art was immeasurable!

Following this, he diligently pondered two divine arts within the Seven Treasures Divine Art, correlating them with his own Yin and Yang energies, and immersed himself in their study.

During this process, he applied divine beast blood, continuing to refine the Yin energy within his soul.

Studying the profound arts in this manner served as a distraction, making his pain less intense.

Two days later, Chu Feng had used up all the divine beast blood. He was certain that he had thoroughly cleansed the Yin energy, and the sacred medicine had also been completely consumed.

At this point, his Yang energy was intensely vibrant, with no trace of Yin spirit; his soul aura was incredibly dazzling.

As he activated his soul aura, he himself became like a blazing sun, illuminating the mountain forest with surging Yang energy, an incredibly formidable sight.

Compared to before, he was an entirely different person!

Furthermore, Chu Feng was actually able to initially manifest the Light of Yin and Yang, causing Ying Xiaoxiao to exclaim in surprise and repeatedly declare that he was a notch stronger than Ying Wudi.

"Immortal, shall we cultivate together?" Chu Feng smiled, looking at Ying Zhexian, genuinely wanting to see if they could reproduce the formidable power of the Seven Treasures Divine Art.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, Pulin was disheveled, his eyes bloodshot, and utterly exhausted. He was consumed by rage, and his gaze was terrifying.

For the past three days, he had led his forces in a frantic search for Chu Feng and the others, consumed by an uncontrollable fury. He worried that they might have already consumed all the divine beast blood and sacred medicine.

Therefore, he had been searching relentlessly, determined to immediately apprehend and kill Chu Feng and the others, and reclaim the fortune he believed was rightfully his.
