Chapter 648: Taotie Instinct!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Feng was a little surprised. He didn’t expect this Emperor Coiling Cauldron to have a secret.

A medicinal fragrance spread out continuously as the precious blood and elephant meat inside were crazily condensed, and traces of destiny power were borrowed.

This cauldron of precious elephant meat became sparkling and resplendent.

The fragrance began to spread continuously, and Zhou Feng couldn’t help but grab a piece of meat.

After stuffing it into his mouth, a golden jade liquid started to secrete.

“It’s so delicious! This…”

After taking a bite, Zhou Feng felt as if he had ascended.

A wave of energy continuously washed over his body, and his apertures started to absorb the essence of the precious meat.

“Ah! You dare to eat my body? How dare you!?

“You can’t escape. This is the territory of the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom. You can’t escape.”

Suddenly, Bai Xiang’s voice began to ring in his ears.

“The Supreme Buddhist Kingdom? This voice is…”

Zhou Feng frowned slightly. Bai Xiang’s soul had escaped, but he could still transmit his voice here.

How did he do it?

Although he had obtained some memories of the Central Plains, there was no information about Mahayana Buddhism in these memories.

Not to mention the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom.

He only knew that he had come to an unfamiliar place.

Moreover, there was a special type of willpower nearby. In this place, the Spiritual Qi and the willpower seemed to have intersected.

Zhou Feng had just absorbed a huge amount of Spiritual Qi, which contained a lot of Buddhist willpower.

This was also why Bai Xiang wanted to convert him on the spot.

Under normal circumstances, converting a cultivator by force was impossible.

It was precisely because Zhou Feng’s body contained a trace of the willpower that Bai Xiang wanted to convert him by force.

“Fragrant!”

Zhou Feng ate Bai Xiang’s meat in large mouthfuls.

Bai Xiang’s threatening words from before were directly thrown to the back of his mind.

His appetite was greatly satisfied. The flesh of Bai Xiang, along with the medicinal fragrance of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, made his Blood Qi roil.

As his Blood Qi surged, he once again used the Ascendance technique to separate his physical body and soul.

Then, he transformed his physical body, and the longevity substances constantly filled the gap.

His soul was devouring the willpower contained in his physical body, and the Level-2 Gluttony was triggered.

His Blood Qi broke through the upper limit, and his soul became complete.

“Gluttony was triggered?”

Zhou Feng was a little surprised. Gluttony was the first passive ability he had obtained.

Although he had experienced an evolution, he had almost forgotten this passive skill.

The main reason was that Gluttony’s passive effect diminished as his cultivation increased. A little bit of Blood Qi increase could be completely ignored.

Just like Gluttony, some passive skills that were initially very useful had become dispensable.

The passive Bone Coating, Poison Immunity, Night Guardian, and so on could be completely ignored, but he didn’t expect that Gluttony could still be effective.

Thinking of this, Zhou Feng glanced at the skill panel.

He discovered that after killing Bai Xiang, the progress bar was full again.

‘It’s actually full so quickly? Was it because this white elephant had great luck? Or was it because of something else?’

“Drae!” 1

All kinds of thoughts flowed through Zhou Feng’s mind.

“Drawing successful!”

“Gluttony disappears…”

‘Gluttony disappears!?’

Zhou Feng was a little surprised. Could a passive skill disappear?

But soon, he understood what was going on.

Taotie Instinct: Your greedy appetite will drive you after gaining a part of the Taoties’ innate abilities.

Gluttony disappeared and turned into a completely new passive skill.

“Taoties’ innate abilities?”

Zhou Feng only felt a surge of hunger rising continuously.

In the next instant, he separated the entire white elephant and threw it all into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.

The medicinal fragrance became more and more intense, and the seven-colored precious blood shone with a different radiance at this time.

Another mouthful of white elephant meat entered his stomach, and his physical body began to change a little.

At the same time, some broken Buddhist scriptures surged into his mind.

Devour everything and take it for its own use-this was the passive Taotie Instict’s effect!

No matter what it was, Taoties could devour everything.

And the thing it devoured would become the nutrients it needed.

Now, Zhou Feng had this ability. After devouring the white elephant meat, he had a chance to obtain Bai Xiang’s physique or divine abilities.

Then, he could make a choice. If he needed it, he would keep it. It would become the most primitive nourishment if he didn’t need it.

In history, Taoties would basically turn everything they devoured into nutrients to improve their Devouring Constitution.

However, Zhou Feng could choose another path: strip away the divine ability and use it for himself.

“This… Doesn’t this mean that I can forcefully learn other people’s innate divine abilities?”

The first thing that came to his mind was to learn other people’s divine abilities.

Eat people? Wasn’t this the perfect way to eat people? 1

After possessing the passive Taotie Instinct, he could completely devour those cultivators with special physiques.

“No! Not good! Not Interesting!”

Zhou Feng quickly abandoned the idea of eating people because doing so would make him unhappy.

If he ate a divine beast, it would be fine. But eating human beings was still not worth it.

This would make him unhappy. He didn’t have cannibalistic tendencies, so he didn’t need to do this.

Soon, he turned his attention to Bai Xiang’s innate divine ability.

Through his passive Taotie Instinct, he comprehended an incomplete divine ability.

This divine ability was called Evil Suppression!

What was evil suppression? It was to suppress all evil creatures.

As a divine beast of Mahayana Buddhism, Bai Xiang was born with the Evil Suppression Ability. Any evil creature would naturally be suppressed when facing Bai Xiang.

And what was the definition of evil?

It was very simple. As long as it was your enemy, you could brand them as an evil demon. 1

This divine ability was so simple and crude, directly suppressing the enemy.

“No wonder I felt uncomfortable earlier.”

Zhou Feng finally understood. While fighting Bai Xiang earlier, he had felt a force suppressing him.

However, he had been too fierce, forcefully killing Bai Xiang.

“Good divine ability! I can learn it!”

He was naturally very satisfied with this divine ability.

Having the ability to suppress the opponent and automatically brand them as evil demons, wasn’t this automatically allowing one to stand on the moral high ground?

Such a divine ability should naturally be learned.

Although it was only an incomplete divine ability, it was still a very simple matter for him to complete it himself.

After eating and drinking his fill, Zhou Feng’s spirit returned to his physical body, and the Ascendance method seemed to have improved a little.

He didn’t plan to leave this place now because he wanted to understand the so-called Mahayana Buddhism and learn about the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom.

After entering the Central Plains, Zhou Feng was already prepared to fight all the way.

He didn’t want to escape because he wanted to follow his heart. He wanted to test how strong his life-saving ability was.

He also wanted to see what realm was above the Rebirth realm.
