once.

twice.

Ten times.

Each impact shook Chu Feng's soul.

But he gritted his teeth and did not back down in the slightest.

I don't know how much time passed.

"boom!"

The wall that Chu Feng sensed shattered with a deafening roar under the final, violent impact of the medicinal power and his own spiritual energy.

An unprecedentedly powerful force surged forth from his dantian, instantly flowing into his limbs and bones, cleansing every inch of his muscles, bones, and flesh.

The vortex of gaseous spiritual energy in the center of his dantian began to spin rapidly at this moment.

Finally, a core of liquid spiritual energy, about the size of a thumb and crystal clear, slowly condensed and took shape.

Foundation building complete!

Chu Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

A sharp glint, visible to the naked eye, flashed across his eyes.

He could clearly feel that he was completely different from before.

The spiritual energy in the dantian was no longer an ethereal gas, but had turned into a viscous liquid.

With a thought, this powerful liquid spiritual energy can instantly flow to all parts of the body, with a response speed several times faster than before.

His five senses were also remarkably enhanced.

Even through the thick walls, he could clearly hear the rustling sounds of a cat chasing a mouse outside the yard.

Is this the Foundation Building stage?

Once you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, you'll suddenly feel the vastness of the world!

Chu Feng clenched his fist, and a confident smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

From this day forward, he can finally say that he has the means to make a living in this world.

However, he didn't have time to be happy for long.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

A loud, rude knocking sounded at the door.

"Chu Feng! Open the door! The Mission Hall has issued a mission!"

Chu Feng frowned.

He unlatched the door and saw Sun Lei smiling hypocritically, holding a mission jade slip in his hand.

"Oh, it's Senior Brother Sun! What brings you here?"

Chu Feng leaned against the door frame, looking at him with a forced smile.

Sun Lei felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, but when he thought of the powerful backer behind him, he regained his courage and cleared his throat.

"Chu Feng, congratulations! Your strength has improved so much that you're even stronger than Senior Brother Wang Teng. You're now the number one figure in our outer sect."

"According to the sect's rules, all disciples with a certain level of strength are required to share various tasks for the sect."

"Perfect opportunity, I've got a lucrative job for you."

Sun Lei handed over the jade slip in his hand, his smile growing even brighter.

"You know Senior Brother Wang Ba, right?"

"The spirit beasts he keeps on the mountain need someone to take care of them and clean them. The reward for the task is five hundred low-grade spirit stones, plus a bottle of Qi-Nourishing Pills."

"This is something others would kill for; I saved it especially for you!"

Chu Feng took the jade slip, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Wang Ba?

Wang Teng's brother?

Assign yourself a task to take care of his spirit beast?

Do you think I'm an idiot?

Seeing that Chu Feng did not react for a long time, Sun Lei's face darkened.

"Junior Brother Chu, don't forget that I'm in charge of all the tasks assigned to you menial disciples in the Mission Hall."

"This is a fantastic opportunity. If you don't appreciate it, don't blame your senior brother for being ruthless when there are dirty or tiring jobs or life-or-death missions in the future."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

He felt the powerful energy in his dantian and laughed out loud.

"Okay, I'll take the task."

Seeing that he had taken the bait, a smug glint flashed in Sun Lei's eyes, and he quickly urged, "That's great! Let's not delay, let's set off now!"

……

Half an hour later.

In a remote and desolate spot on a mountain peak outside the gate, Sun Lei pointed to a row of huge animal sheds made of refined iron on the mountainside and said to Chu Feng.

"Junior Brother Chu, we've arrived."

Before you even get close, a strong, fishy smell hits you.

Deep, guttural roars echoed from the massive iron cages, sending chills down one's spine.

Sun Lei's face was somewhat pale, clearly indicating that he was also afraid of this place.

He pointed to the huge, dark animal pen at the very back and, trying to appear calm, said, "That's the one. Senior Brother Wang Ba said you just need to go in and clean up the dung for it. It's super easy!"

After saying that, he retreated repeatedly until he reached a safe distance of more than 100 meters.

Chu Feng ignored him and walked straight towards the animal shed.

Inside the animal pen, there was a ferocious beast, as big as a tiger, covered in bluish-black scales.

It was the ferocious beast at the eighth level of Qi Refining, the Iron-Scaled Tiger.

At this moment, it is lying on the ground, pretending to sleep.

The moment Chu Feng stepped into the animal pen.

"roar!"

The iron-scaled tiger suddenly leaped up!

Its massive body lunged at Chu Feng like lightning.

The gigantic claw, gleaming with a cold light, slammed straight down towards Chu Feng's head!

"Well done!"

Chu Feng was furious, but he remained completely calm.

He swayed and dodged to the side at an incredible angle.

"Sizzle!"

The Iron-Scaled Tiger's claws narrowly grazed his shoulder and struck the iron fence behind him, leaving four claw marks in an instant!

When its first attack missed, the Iron-Scaled Tiger became even more ferocious.

It roared, turned around, and pounced again.

But this time, Chu Feng did not dodge.

He stood still, his liquid spiritual energy surging within him, unleashing a powerful pressure far exceeding that of the Qi Refining stage.

"Since you want to play, I'll play a big game with you."

Chu Feng's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Facing the gaping maw that was rushing towards him, he neither dodged nor avoided, but pushed his hands forward!

"The Ravages of Time!"

A clear and stirring phoenix cry resounded throughout the shed!

A fiery phoenix, several times larger than the one he had seen in the Black Wind Forest, roared out from his palm!

The phoenix, engulfed in blazing golden flames and exuding a terrifying aura capable of scorching the heavens and boiling the seas, crashed headlong into the Iron-Scaled Tiger.

"boom!"

The moment the two made contact, the Iron-Scaled Tiger's hard iron scales, which were strong enough to withstand swords and blades, were instantly vaporized!

Golden flames surged through the gaps in its scales, frantically drilling into its flesh.

"Awoo!"

The Ironscale Tiger let out a miserable howl, its massive body rolling wildly on the ground.

But the golden flames were like a persistent carbuncle, impossible to extinguish no matter how hard it struggled.

In just a few breaths, its screams stopped, and its massive body crashed to the ground, turning into a charred corpse.

In the distance, Sun Lei, who was craning his neck to watch, froze completely before his sinister smile could fully bloom.

Why did the noise in the animal shed suddenly become so quiet?

Died so quickly?

He mustered his courage and cautiously peeked into the animal shed.

With just one glance, he was completely stunned.

That... that Iron-Scaled Tiger that even Senior Brother Wang Ba had to deal with carefully, actually... actually turned into a charred corpse?

Meanwhile, the servant Chu Feng stood unharmed beside the charred corpse, his emotions remaining stable.
