"Breakthrough?"
After Chu Feng broke through, Heiteng immediately felt the change in his aura and immediately asked.
"Well, a breakthrough."
Although Chu Feng's tone was calm, he could not hide his excitement.
"It'll be great if you break through."
Heiteng smiled and said: "Continue to absorb."
"The energy within the spirit sacrifice formation should not have been exhausted yet."
"good."
Chu Feng nodded, and then continued to absorb the energy within the spirit sacrifice array.
As time went by, the light emitted by the golden crystal above his head gradually dimmed.
And the seventy-two high-level soul crystals formed into the soul-sacrifice formation also cracked and shattered one after another.
Until now, the last trace of energy in the spirit sacrifice formation has been completely drained by Chu Feng.
And Chu Feng's strength was finally fixed at the peak of the first level of the Divine Soul Realm.
"It's a pity that I couldn't break through to the second level of the Divine Soul Realm."
A look of regret flashed across Chu Feng's eyes.
Heiteng glanced at him and said angrily: "You kid, you are really greedy."
Chu Feng chuckled: "I have to say, this enlightenment feeling is really good."
"It would be nice to do it again if I had the chance."
"You think beautifully."
Heiteng said angrily: "Do you know how much it costs to prepare such a large spirit gathering array?"
"Not to mention anything else, just the energy poured into your body is not something that ordinary strong people can afford."
After hearing this, Chu Feng couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
You must know that the energy contained in this soul-sacrifice formation helped Chu Feng directly break through from the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm to the peak of the first level of the Divine Soul Realm!
And such a huge amount of energy is only one-tenth of it.
One can imagine how amazing the energy Gu Xuanwu poured into this golden crystal was.
Only now did Chu Feng realize how terrifying a powerful man of Gu Xuanwu's level was.
However, after breaking through to the Soul Realm, Chu Feng only felt that his state was more relaxed than ever before, both mentally and physically.
After all, in the past three months, Chu Feng had been in an extremely tense state in order to break through to the Soul Realm.
From absorbing the soul-eating vine in Death Valley, to tempering the body in the Flame Dragon Pond, and finally to the Black Mist Forest for a life-and-death fight with monsters.
Along the way, Chu Feng could almost be said to have tried his best.
Heiteng said: "You have worked hard these days."
"There are only a few days left before the bet with Manus."
"It just so happens that you should take a good rest during these days."
… …
In the next few days, Chu Feng basically stayed in the Black Mist Forest to consolidate his realm.
At the same time, he would occasionally hunt some magical beasts to test what level his strength had reached.
In fact, after breaking through to the Soul Realm, Chu Feng's combat effectiveness also increased unprecedentedly.
It even reached a point where even he was amazed.
You know, even before breaking through to the Divine Soul Realm, Chu Feng already had the strength to kill the Divine Soul Realm monsters.
His current strength is naturally better than before.
In less than five days, Chu Feng killed three demonic beasts at the seventh level of the Divine Soul Realm and two demonic beasts at the eighth level of the Divine Soul Realm.
Moreover, from beginning to end, Heiteng never helped him.
However, with Chu Feng's current strength, it is already very difficult to deal with the eighth-level magical beasts of the Divine Soul Realm.
If he encounters a monster at the ninth level of the Divine Soul Realm, he may have no choice but to run for his life.
Soon, the time agreed with Manus finally arrived.
Today is the last day of three months.
Chu Feng turned his head, looked at Heiteng, and asked, "If I remember correctly, Manus should have returned to the abyss, right?"
"Then how can he verify the result of the bet?"
Heiteng smiled and said calmly: "Then you underestimate a strong man of his level."
"Even if he is in the abyss, he can still make the ghost of the soul come here."
Just as Heiteng finished speaking, a terrifying aura immediately spread towards the surroundings.
There is no doubt that this is the arrival of Manus, the Lord of the Abyss!
A thick gray fog exuding deathly energy gathered in front of Chu Feng, and then quickly dissipated.
Immediately afterwards, a horned demon with purple skin walked out of the thick fog and appeared in front of Chu Feng and Heiteng.
"Three months are over."
"According to the agreement, it's time for you to fulfill your bet, right?"
"The bet must be fulfilled."
Heiteng said calmly: "However, before fulfilling the bet, you'd better open your eyes and see what state this kid is in now."
"Um?"
After hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Manus's face.
Then, he immediately concentrated his mind and looked directly at Chu Feng.
The next second, a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
"The peak of the first level of the Divine Soul Realm? How is this possible?!"
He clearly remembered that when he first met Chu Feng, the boy had not yet reached the fifth level of Transcendence.
Why have such earth-shaking changes occurred in just three months
This breakthrough speed can simply be described as incredible.
Heiteng smiled and said, "I hope that your Excellency...will be willing to admit defeat."
Manus gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I won't default on your debt!"
"What's more, we have signed a soul contract, so you don't have to worry!"
Then, Manus looked at Chu Feng again, as if he wanted to see something from his face.
It has to be said that Manus' eyes were still very vicious, and he soon saw the clues from Chu Feng.
I saw the corner of Manus's mouth twitching fiercely a few times, and he said in a deep voice: "You... used the spirit sacrifice formation for this kid?"
"That's right."
Heiteng did not deny it, but readily admitted it.
"You... are so cruel."
Manus gritted his teeth and said, "If I guessed correctly, the energy used to give this boy the enlightenment should be the energy left by Gu Xuanwu, right?"
Black Teng said: "That's right."
Manus's face changed for a while, and then he said helplessly: "You guys... really spent a lot of money this time."
"Forget it, I didn't lose unfairly this time, I admit defeat."
"It's nothing that costs money or money."
Heiteng said calmly: "Chu Feng is the only inheritor of the master. According to the master's wishes, this spirit sacrifice formation was originally left to him."
"Furthermore, this kid was able to break through to the Soul Realm in such a short period of time. Do you really think it was all due to the Spirit Sacrifice Formation?"
"Although the effect of enlightenment is very strong, it is not so powerful as to change one's destiny."
"To tell you the truth, as early as ten days ago, before I set up the spirit sacrifice formation, this boy's strength had already reached the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm."
After hearing this, Manus couldn't help but his pupils suddenly tightened.
Of course he understood what this meant.
This means that even without the help of the Spirit Sacrifice Formation, Chu Feng still broke through to the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm in just three months.
Such a talent can be said to be quite terrifying.
