Chapter 43

Please collect, the number of collections is so low. Daoist says, two updates today, the second one at midnight!

A gentle breeze blew, and the tree branches swayed.

Yang Qifeng's eyes were slightly closed, lost in deep thought.

In the midst of the chaos in Daze Mountain, Yang Qifeng was quickly analyzing all the pros and cons.

"Daze Mountain, although a third-grade divine mountain, is not qualified to form a great calamity. At least a first-grade divine mountain like the Five Great Mountains is required," Yang Qifeng carefully analyzed, recalling various mythological legends from his memory.

For example, in "Journey to the West," the starting point is Huaguo Mountain, which is known as the ancestral vein of the Ten Continents and the dragon vein of the Three Islands, established since the beginning of the universe and formed after the primordial chaos.

Although it does not rank in the celestial hierarchy, the might of Huaguo Mountain is no less than that of a first-grade divine mountain.

In another mythological legend, "The Magic Lotus Lantern," the place of origin is Huashan, the Western Peak!

It is one of the Five Great Mountains, a first-grade divine mountain, and only as the place of the great calamity can it sweep across the world.

Daze Mountain is just a third-grade divine mountain, and according to the records of the Heavenly Court, there are at least eighty, if not a hundred. In terms of calamity, it cannot attract the Monkey King or the Third Holy Mother.

Not to mention that the world is still in the midst of the "Journey to the West" calamity. As the son of the era, this era has not yet passed, and it still belongs to the Monkey King's domain.

Yang Qifeng did not believe that the calamity here would surpass the "Journey to the West" calamity. He carefully recalled the gray calamity aura.

"The gray aura is thick but not dense, not yet formed. This is not a great calamity, but a minor one, targeting those below the Immortal Dao," the Blue Dryness Demon God said.

While Yang Qifeng was silent, a divine thought communicated with him, and the words echoed in his mind.

"Not a calamity of the Immortal Dao," Yang Qifeng muttered, feeling somewhat relieved.

As he had analyzed, the calamity here was not a great one, and it would not sweep across the world like in "The Magic Lotus Lantern" or involve powerful demons as in "Journey to the West."

"Do not underestimate it. Even if it is a minor calamity, with your strength, you might die here," the Blue Dryness Demon God paused for a moment before continuing, "Now that the gray calamity aura has just risen, it is the best time to sever the calamity aura and leave with the Eight Trigram Immortal Furnace. If you wait any longer and get caught in the calamity aura, even if you leave, you cannot avoid this calamity. So I advise you to leave Daze Mountain now."

"Leave?"

"No!"

Yang Qifeng opened his eyes, his eyes filled with hatred.

"If I run away now, I will always be running, and there will be a time when I cannot escape."

"In a narrow path, the brave win. This time, I will definitely not run away," Yang Qifeng said firmly.

"Foolish. Avoiding danger is just common sense. If everyone were like you, there would be no great cultivators left in the world, they would all be dead," the Blue Dryness Demon God sternly rebuked.

"That's not your true thoughts, right? Tell me your true thoughts. Don't let me think you are beyond saving," the Blue Dryness Demon God added after a moment of education.

Silent, Yang Qifeng pondered for a while before speaking again, "Danger and opportunity are proportional. This calamity looks dangerous, but if I can get through it, the gains will be substantial, greatly advancing my cultivation and truly giving me the capital for revenge."

Yang Qifeng revealed his true thoughts, his face filled with hatred.

That despicable maid, the hatred Yang Qifeng had for her could not be washed away even by the waters of the Milky Way.

"This is too risky. Although her strength is currently far beyond yours, with my help, you will eventually surpass her. You don't need to rush. Just follow a steady path of cultivation," the Blue Dryness Demon God gently shook his head, indicating disagreement.

Step by step, surpass her? How is that possible?

Yang Qifeng did not believe that he would gradually surpass her. As his strength grew, so did hers.

A soft voice echoed in his mind, "I don't believe you, Demon God, didn't notice the situation with that despicable maid. The treasure fan she held contained the principles of heaven and earth, clearly not a later creation, with deep roots and extraordinary background."

Yang Qifeng stopped there, and the Blue Dryness Demon God understood the rest.

"Is this your reason for taking the risk?" the Blue Dryness Demon God asked.

"Yes, only by doing so can I narrow the gap with that despicable maid," Yang Qifeng nodded.

His heart was extremely bitter. In the current era where everyone uses magical treasures, at most, they are spirit treasures. That despicable maid held a primordial object, which was impossible without a deep background.

Not to mention, in terms of openly displayed strength, the Great Bull Demon King is now known as the Equaling Heaven Great Sage, with the power of a Golden Immortal, making it difficult to aspire to.

So, in Yang Qifeng's view, the "Journey to the West" calamity a few hundred years later is an opportunity for revenge.

Bitterly, he continued, "After this great calamity, the heavenly secrets will be revealed. Demon God, you think I will be safe, but that despicable maid will certainly calculate my position for her son."

The "Journey to the West" is his last chance. If he cannot resolve this trouble, he will never have peace in the future.

So this is not about Yang Qifeng taking a risk, but about a time when he cannot afford not to take a risk.

"I can shield you from the heavenly secrets," the Blue Dryness Demon God said.

"This is not safe. It's not that I don't trust you, Demon God. If you were at your peak, it would be fine, but now—"

Yang Qifeng did not continue. The Blue Dryness Demon God, in his current state, could not shield him from the heavenly secrets. Before the Three Pure Fires were extracted, it might have been possible, but now, with the connection between the Three Pure Fires and himself, the Blue Dryness Demon God could not protect him.

The Blue Dryness Demon God fell silent, and Yang Qifeng did not speak further.

This was what Yang Qifeng had realized over the past two days. He thought he was safe after escaping from Flame Mountain, but now he realized that his current safety was only due to the "Journey to the West" calamity.

It was not just about Yang Qifeng's revenge; that despicable maid would not let him go either.

Both sides were now in a life-or-death struggle, especially after the Blue Dryness Demon God's explosive protection of Yang Qifeng's escape, which would certainly make that despicable maid wary. She is definitely searching for him now, and once the heavenly secrets are revealed, she will certainly calculate his position.

It's either you die or I live; that's the mythological world.

Yang Qifeng did not see the bright side, only the deep-seated danger.

So Yang Qifeng must actively enter the calamity!
