Xuanwu War Sovereign

The woman in white looked to be in her twenties, with stunning looks. To an old monster like Qin Feng, who had long passed the age of being stirred by such things, a woman’s beauty had its limits.

Though their features differed, they could all be described with one phrase: as beautiful as a Celestial Immortal, capable of toppling cities.

Setting aside appearances, what truly distinguished a woman’s beauty was her disposition. It could be gentle and dignified, noble and alluring, pure and graceful, cold as ice and snow, learned and wise, poised and elegant, like a lone orchid in a secluded valley, or bewitching to all living things... Disposition was the true dividing line between a top-tier beauty and an ordinary one.

No matter how beautiful one’s face, without the right disposition, she couldn’t be considered a top-tier beauty. Conversely, having only disposition without looks wasn’t enough either. Such a person would never deserve the praise of having a beauty that could topple nations.

The woman before him, however, absolutely deserved such a title. At first glance, she seemed pitifully lovely. A second look revealed a cold beauty, like ice and snow. Yet another look showed a dignified elegance. She not only possessed the grace and poise of a noble lady but also a hint of a mature woman’s allure.

And beneath it all was the domineering and commanding presence of a Queen.

The woman in white appeared to be heavily injured. A purple light flickered faintly between her brows, likely caused by a strange Qi Force wreaking havoc inside her. This woman had to be at least in the Condensing Vein Realm or higher.

Qin Feng’s eyes were exceptionally sharp; he was confident he wasn’t mistaken. The woman in white had been struck by an extremely bizarre Qi Force. This Qi Force appeared righteous and vast, like the very source of light, giving birth to Light Power. However, this seemingly brilliant and immense power was ceaselessly eroding the woman’s vitality, brutally and tyrannically destroying her meridians. Even with her profound Realm, she could only suppress it for a short time. Before long, she would surely die.

Qin Feng stroked his smooth chin, a thoughtful look in his eyes. If he wasn’t mistaken, the woman had been struck by the Great Sun Brightness True Power, a derivative of the .

The was a signature of the experts under the Great Sun Divine Hall. The Great Sun Divine Hall was a powerful faction that dominated for a time during the Golden Era. It later fractured and fell apart during the great turmoil of that age. The reason for its collapse remains unknown.

It was only known that it might have been due to an internal power struggle!

However, at the beginning of the glorious Golden Era, this faction was still an immensely powerful behemoth that held sway over its territory, with numerous fanatical Holy Guards of Light gathered under its banner.

The was one of the many powerful Light Attribute Techniques of the Great Sun Divine Hall, classified as a True Martial Level Light Attribute Technique.

Here, it is necessary to explain Attributes. Attributes are a mysterious power that only manifests after the Martial Arts Ninefold Divine Transformation. They are a hallmark of a Condensing Vein Realm expert. To become a Condensing Vein Realm expert, one must comprehend the attribute power of Heaven and Earth.

In his previous life, after completing the Martial Arts Ninefold Divine Transformation, the Attribute Qin Feng comprehended belonged to the power of heavenly Thunderbolt, and he condensed Thunder True Power.

Thunder True Power was the most domineering, one of the few rare and powerful Attributes. In terms of attack power, Thunder Attribute True Power possessed a ferocity that other attribute powers could hardly match.

The Light Attribute was also one of the powerful Attributes. Once struck by Light True Power, it was generally very difficult to expel. This was because the Light Attribute possessed the domineering power to purify everything—anything not of its kind would be purified.

For someone afflicted by Light True Power, aside from a few extremely precious Spirit Medicines that could neutralize it, the only options were to use a superior power to expel it directly, or be completely purified by the Light True Power and turned into a pile of ash.

Experts with the Light Attribute were actually quite rare. Apart from the Great Sun Divine Hall, which possessed a Secret Technique to increase the chances of comprehending the Light Attribute, very few existences in other factions had comprehended it.

Most experts at the Martial Arts Ninth Layer comprehended the ordinary Five Elements Power. Mutated Powers were less common, powerful attributes were extremely rare, and Supreme Powers were the scarcest of all.

The Great Sun Bright Purple Qi carried an extremely rare hint of purple. After being struck, a spot of Purple Qi would generally appear between the victim’s brows!

Anyone afflicted by the Great Sun Bright Purple Qi, without the special antidote from the Great Sun Divine Hall, was generally doomed to die.

Moreover, within the Great Sun Bright Purple Qi inside the woman’s body, Qin Feng could sense a vast Light Will capable of completely purifying Heaven and Earth. Clearly, the assailant was an expert with extremely high attainments in the dao of light.

In the past, with his old demon’s disposition, he would have definitely stayed as far away as possible, no matter how beautiful the woman was—especially now, when he lacked even the power to protect himself.

But now, he was in desperate need of a target from whom to steal Yuan Yin. This woman’s Martial Dao was extremely strong. Although he didn’t know if she was a virgin, the Yuan Yin of a Martial Arts Strongman, especially a female one, was far beyond what an ordinary woman could compare to.

A beast, or worse than a beast? The question only circled in Qin Feng’s mind for a moment before he made his decision.

As for what that decision was, it was written plainly on his face. On the left side was written, "Take advantage of her weakness," and on the right, "I am a beast!"

"Don’t blame me when you wake up. This is the only way to save your life!"

"I save your life, and you help me get rid of this ’waste’ label. It’s mutually beneficial—a fair trade, I’d say!" he muttered to himself.

Rolling up his sleeves and looking around, he found a dry cave far from the waterfall. It had once been a bear’s den but was now long abandoned and filled with cobwebs. He did a simple cleanup.

Gazing at the white-clothed woman’s unparalleled beauty, a heat rose in his eyes, and he immediately rushed forward.

...

A long time later, Qin Feng struggled to stabilize his nearly collapsing mind. His eyes regained their clarity. He closed them, and after banishing all distracting thoughts, he opened them again. This time, the fiery passion in his gaze had faded. He took out the already washed Profound Sun Ginseng and devoured the hundred-year-old root in a few bites, as if eating a carrot. As he finished, he felt a gentle, cool energy spread from his abdomen straight into his heart meridian.

’The time is right!’

Qin Feng’s eyes lit up, and he slowly began to circulate the nameless Secret Technique. A faint suction force emerged from his body. A cool stream of energy began to flow from the woman’s body into his four limbs and hundred bones.

Unexpectedly, the Yuan Yin within the woman’s body was far denser than he had imagined. As the nameless Cultivation Technique circulated, a vast, cool energy surged from her body into his meridians like a mighty river.

As the cool energy poured into him, it immediately began to circulate along his meridians. Wisps of Yin Qi transformed into a mellow stream of qi and, like river water, began to assimilate the Three Yin Cold Qi that had stagnated within him.

The Three Yin Cold Qi, which had been blocking his meridians like a stubborn rock, began to melt away as if a glacier had met flowing water. His meridians started to clear. At the same time, a trace of warm Yang Qi protected his heart meridian, preventing the passing Yin Qi from assaulting his heart.

If nothing went wrong, the process would be completed quickly, and Qin Feng would then be able to officially begin his Martial Dao cultivation.

However, at that moment, a sudden change occurred. As a portion of the Primordial Yin Qi flowed over from the woman’s body, a trace of the domineering Great Sun Bright Purple Qi mixed within it was swept along. A tearing pain erupted in his meridians. His fragile, untempered meridians simply could not withstand such a tyrannical Light True Power...
