Chapter 85: Even as an Undead, I’m Still No Match for You? Then wouldn’t Gu Feng’s presence be in vain?

Gu Feng paid no attention to Yan, who had been utterly defeated. He walked over slowly, delivering a sharp kick that sent Yan sprawling to the ground. He glanced at him with a sidelong look, saying nothing.

Perhaps, to him, it was beneath his dignity to waste words on such a defeated opponent.

This dismissive attitude instantly infuriated Yan.

He was a member of the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall, personally designated by the Pope as a future prodigy. Even Titled Douluos had expressed interest in taking him as a disciple!

Having grown up surrounded by praise and admiration, basking in endless glory, when had he ever been subjected to such blatant mockery?

As Gu Feng turned and began to charge toward Huliena and Xie Yue, Yan's mental defenses completely crumbled.

"The mission Nana entrusted to me is not yet complete. I cannot lose!"

Yan screamed inwardly, desperately clinging to his crumbling willpower. He mustered all his Soul Power, trying to resist the relentless erosion of the Undead Power on his arm.

Then, he raised his head and roared furiously, "If you want to harm Nana, you'll have to step over my corpse first!"

"First Soul Skill, Hell Lava Rush!"

Struggling to maintain his will, Yan forcibly resisted the Undead Power's erosion on his arm with his Soul Power and shouted, "First Soul Skill, Hell Lava Rush!"

Meanwhile, not far away, Ye Lingling's palm quietly manifested the Star God Begonia. Its petals were crystal clear, like a dreamlike celestial object.

Her soft, pink lips parted slightly as she softly chanted, "Heal!"

In an instant, countless dazzling petals, resembling a galaxy, drifted down gracefully.

Under Ye Lingling's exquisite control of Soul Power, the area of this group healing skill was precisely managed, covering only a single step around Gu Feng.

Although Gu Feng was not injured at the moment, the terrifying 30% boost to all attributes provided by the Star God Begonia, evolved from the Nine Heart Begonia, was a stroke of genius when applied to him.

Gu Feng felt as if his entire body had been infused with boundless power. Not only did his Soul Power surge like a tidal wave, but his strength, speed, and defense also underwent a qualitative leap. Most importantly, his mental power also received a significant boost, making him sharper and more alert.

"Ling Ling, well done."

Gu Feng couldn't help but praise her, though his movements didn't slow in the slightest. Fierce bone spikes instantly attached to his hands, forming an indestructible pair of blade-like gloves that easily blocked Yan's attack.

Then, the corner of Gu Feng's mouth curled into a mocking smile as he sneered, "Do you even know what the power within you is? I never expected you to be so foolish, willing to sacrifice your future for a woman who has nothing to do with you. How laughable."

Gu Feng paused briefly, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes as he continued, "The only reason you can fight alongside her now is because of your talent and strength.

"But now… hah!"

As he spoke, Gu Feng cast a slightly pitying glance at Yan, as if looking at a pitiful, ignorant fool.

After all, once Undead Power invades the body, it can only be removed through purification or suppressed with Heavenly Material Earthly Treasures. But the prerequisite for all of this is to first halt the flow of Soul Power.

Yet Yan had forcibly broken through these restraints, willing to sacrifice his talent and future just to earn a smile from his goddess?

In Gu Feng's eyes, it was utterly foolish.

How ridiculous could this be?

As expected of you, Yan—the boiling sheep!

Hearing this, a flash of panic crossed Yan's eyes, but his trust in Huliena outweighed everything else. He immediately retorted, "That's nonsense! Impossible! Nana would never do such a thing!"

Meanwhile, Huliena and Xie Yue's Spirit Soul Fusion was nearing completion. A purple light had completely enveloped the two of them, and an overwhelming pressure filled the air.

"Hahaha, you're about to lose! Nana and the others are almost done, almost done!"

Seeing this, Yan's heart swelled with joy, and his attacks became even more ferocious, trying to completely suppress Gu Feng before the Spirit Soul Fusion Skill was unleashed.

Yan thought to himself, "Nana, I haven't let you down!"

Gu Feng's eyes sharpened, knowing he couldn't delay any longer.

He took a deep breath, and his Soul Power surged wildly within him as he prepared to unleash his strongest killing move.

At that moment, the temperature around them suddenly plummeted, and a thin layer of frost began to spread across the ground...

"Come forth, Nether Dragon Beast! Show your loyalty to your master!"

With this summoning, a massive and ferocious serpentine figure appeared by his side.

The Nether Dragon Beast's body coiled, its scales glinting with a cold, eerie light. Its two massive vertical pupils burned with fervent flames.

It lowered its head slightly, its enormous skull nearly touching the ground, and a fervent voice rumbled forth, "As you command, my great master!"

Only a Soul Beast that had once been an Undead could understand how wonderful this experience was.

During its time in the Ancient Undead Domain, the Nether Dragon Beast had occasionally felt a hint of loneliness, but in every other aspect, its life had been perfect.

Especially within the Ancient Domain, as an Undead, it had gained a freedom it could never have imagined in life—it could use its Soul Power without restraint, without fear.

Recalling its past life, the Nether Dragon Beast had lived in the perilous human-forbidden zone—the Far North.

It was a place that struck fear into the hearts of all living beings, a deadly danger for both humans and weaker Soul Beasts.

There, powerful Soul Beast clans were everywhere, and the slightest misstep could lead to eternal damnation.

Thus, even though the Nether Dragon Beast had awakened its Innate Soul Skill early on, it had to tread carefully, never daring to use its Soul Power recklessly, lest it encounter a formidable enemy and run out of power.

After all, there was always the risk of running into the Far North's tyrants, the Ice Jade Scorpion clan, or the Far North's underworld, the Titan Snow Demon clan.

So the Nether Dragon Beast had always conserved its Soul Power. Even though it had cultivated for four thousand years in its past life, it had used its Innate Soul Skill only a handful of times.

Over time, the Nether Dragon Beast had become extremely unfamiliar with its Innate Soul Skill. It possessed a powerful ability but couldn't unleash its full potential.

But during its time in the Ancient Undead Domain, everything had changed dramatically.

The Nether Dragon Beast could freely release its Soul Power, tirelessly honing its Innate Soul Skill day and night.

After countless tempering sessions, its combat prowess had skyrocketed, even surpassing its strength in life.

And all of this transformation was thanks to Master Gu Feng!

Truly, the Undead Ascension Art was remarkable!

My master has not deceived me!

The Nether Dragon Beast's gaze toward Gu Feng grew even more fervent, filled with gratitude. It was no longer the weakling it had once been.

From now on, if anyone from the Ice Jade Scorpion clan enters, it will surely seek to avenge its past humiliation.

As the saying goes, before Lord Gu Feng arrived, I was no match for you, the Ice Jade Scorpion.

But now that Lord Gu Feng has come, even though I have become an Undead, if I still can't defeat you, the Ice Jade Scorpion, wouldn't that mean Lord Gu Feng's arrival was in vain?
