256: Chapter 255 Comparing Curses? Wealth and rank are your ancestors!
"Squeak! Squeak squeak!!"
Accompanied by a series of rapid and excited cries, a gray-gold light broke free from the constraints of the Spirit Beast bag on its own.
Huang Fugui, that sleazy ferret who usually did nothing but eat and sleep, and ran faster than anyone else when danger appeared, was currently squatting on Lin Feng's shoulder.
Strangely, facing this curse power that even a Golden Immortal would fear, this creature was not only unafraid but... trembling with excitement!
Those iconic heterochromatic gold and silver eyes were currently staring fixedly at the Void Realm above Lin Feng's head.
In its field of vision, there was a thick "Karma" line that others could not see but was incredibly clear to it, connecting to the far end of the Void Realm. That line was continuously transmitting dense black Qi, a foul stench, and the aura of death.
"Wow! So stinky! But... so fragrant!"
Fugui drooled, wearing the greedy expression it only had when encountering a peerless delicacy.
It turned its head, looked at the pained Lin Feng, and waved its little paws excitedly: "Master! We've hit the jackpot! This is top-tier curse power! This is pure, high-concentration Origin of Misfortune! This is practically someone delivering a full-course feast to you!"
Lin Feng, suffering from excruciating pain in his left eye, almost passed out from anger upon hearing this.
He snapped indignantly: "A feast your grandpa! I'm about to die! If you don't have a solution, we'll both be heading to the Underworld to report! I don't want to die, and you, as my pet, shouldn't think about running away either!"
"I do! I definitely do!"
Upon hearing this, Fugui instantly puffed out its chest, its smooth fur standing on end.
The new gray tail that had grown out behind it—the tail that grew after it awakened its ancient Bloodline and represented the Origin of [Misfortune and Curses]—was now blooming with an eerie and brilliant light!
A fierce aura from the primordial era erupted from this tiny body.
"Daring to play with curses in front of me?"
Fugui stood on its hind legs and spat with extreme disdain, "Don't you know that I, the Chaos Misfortune Ferret, am the Old Ancestor of curses?"
"This old thing dares to curse my master? Then I'll just follow the connection and eat him!"
Before the words faded, Fugui's originally small mouth suddenly opened impossibly wide, as if it had transformed into a small black hole.
It aimed at the black Karma line above Lin Feng's head and, as if eating noodles, took a fierce bite!
"Divine Ability: Misfortune Devour · Karma Reversal!!"
"Slurp—!!"
A bizarre scene occurred.
The curse power that had been crazily eroding Lin Feng's Divine Soul like bone-attached gangrene, like water encountering a powerful pump, instantly stagnated and then flowed backward!
The black curse energy was swallowed into Fugui's stomach in large gulps, and its little belly was visibly bulging.
"Hiccup~ This flavor is really intense! Hits the spot!"
Fugui burped, a mischievous smile on its face, "Since I ate someone's meal, I have to return the favor, right? This is called reciprocity!"
It took a deep breath, mixing the bad luck, ill omens, misfortune, and the half-digested curse power stored in its stomach, fermenting them in its special stomach pouch, and brewing a "Super Doubled Misfortune Combo."
Then, it puffed up its cheeks and blew hard at the Karma line!
"Pfft—!! Go!"
An intensely gray energy surged back along the Karma line at the speed of light!
Qiyao Immortal Palace, secret chamber.
Seven Luminaries was preparing to pierce the second arrow, his smile becoming increasingly sinister: "Heh heh, little Lin Feng, this arrow will pierce your heart meridian and make you taste the agony of a thousand arrows piercing the heart..."
Just then.
"Hum!!"
The straw effigy on the table suddenly trembled violently, letting out a piercing shriek as if it had come alive.
Immediately after, the pitch-black straw effigy suddenly turned an eerie gray color, and a layer of green mold even grew on its surface.
"What's going on?!" Seven Luminaries was shocked.
Before he could react, an indescribable, terrifying backlash force followed the connection of the Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book, rushing back like a long-accumulated tsunami breaking its dam!
That was not just the backlash of the original curse, but also mixed with Fugui's specially made "Misfortune Bomb"!
"Boom—!!!"
"Pfft—!!!"
Seven Luminaries felt as if his chest had been struck with full force by a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, his internal organs instantly displaced, and he sprayed a mouthful of blood mixed with visceral fragments toward the sky!
The small arrow in his hand exploded directly, and the sharp metal fragments, like scattering flowers, ferociously embedded themselves all over his originally majestic face!
"Ah! My eyes! My face!"
But this was only the beginning of the nightmare!
"What's going on?! My hair?!"
Seven Luminaries discovered in horror that his black, lustrous long hair, which he was most proud of and which symbolized the dignity of an Immortal King, was withering and falling out at a speed visible to the naked eye!
It was like autumn leaves.
In just three breaths!
He had become a completely bald man! Even his eyebrows, eyelashes, and underarm hair had fallen out completely!
Immediately after, his skin began to fester, and green toxic sores appeared on his face, each the size of a copper coin, incomparably itchy, bursting at a scratch and oozing foul pus.
"Ah! So itchy! So painful!"
The dignified Immortal King was currently rolling on the ground like a street ruffian, disregarding his image, frantically scratching his face and body, covered in blood.
The bad luck continued to explode!
"Snap!"
A top-grade protective jade pendant worn at his waist shattered without warning.
"Boom!"
The ceiling of this secret chamber, built from ten-thousand-year mysterious iron and incredibly sturdy, suddenly collapsed!
A boulder weighing ten thousand pounds fell perfectly, smashing right onto his bald forehead!
"Thud!"
With a muffled sound, Seven Luminaries was smashed until he saw stars, and a purple-red bump instantly swelled on his forehead, looking like a single horn.
Choking on water, tripping on flat ground, mana flowing backward causing Qi Deviation, Heart Demon spawning, hallucinations appearing...
All kinds of unlucky events that wouldn't happen once in tens of thousands of years were exploding all at once like a market fair!
"Who?! Who exactly is plotting against me!!!"
Seven Luminaries let out a shrill and desperate scream. At this moment, where was there any trace of an Immortal King? He looked like a toad that had just crawled out of a cesspit, both disgusting and ridiculous!
Dignity swept away! Dao Heart damaged!
On the war chariot.
Following Fugui's devouring, Lin Feng felt his whole body suddenly lighten.
The excruciating pain that tore his Soul apart vanished instantly, replaced by a warm current. The pure Soul Power devoured and converted was fed back to him, making his Divine Soul not only recover but even grow stronger!
"Phew..."
Lin Feng let out a long breath, touched his left eye which had recovered its vision, and looked at the little thing on his shoulder that was looking satisfied and still picking its teeth.
"Well done! Fugui!" Lin Feng praised sincerely this time.
"Hehe, of course, don't you see who I'm hanging out with." Fugui wagged its tail triumphantly, "Master, I've already given him a big gift. It's a collection of the most extreme bad luck in the world. I guarantee it will make him feel so good he'll ascend to heaven, and he won't be able to crawl back up for a while!"
Lin Feng stood up and straightened his robes. The expression that was slightly ferocious due to pain had already disappeared, replaced by a trace of extremely chilling intent.
He looked into the distance, his gaze like a blade.
"It is impolite not to reciprocate."
"Since he likes playing dirty so much, and likes giving gifts so much."
"Then we will go and personally 'thank' him!"
Lin Feng waved his hand, the chaos asura blade in his hand pointing straight at the sky.
"Full speed ahead! Target—South Heaven Gate!"
"This time, whoever dares to stop me, I will kill!"
