I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

”AHHHH...”

Accompanied by the Immortal Venerable’s bloodcurdling screams, Zou Feng devoured it.

But at this stage, a complete Refinement should have been a certainty.

For some reason, however, Zou Feng felt he hadn’t fully and completely refined the Immortal Venerable.

A portion of its power lingered in his meridians, but he couldn’t absorb it.

’Could it be that my current Realm isn’t high enough to refine power of this level?’

It was very possible. Although the words of these Immortal Venerables couldn’t be trusted, the very existence of the Glazed Immortal Palace proved that they were indeed higher-level beings.

But even with an incomplete Refinement, the benefits were still immediately apparent.

”Great Universal Hand (Peak of Perfection), Progress: 98%”

Just as Zou Feng had expected, the quality of this Immortal Venerable was surprisingly high.

The progress of his Great Universal Hand was originally only 85%, but after refining a portion of the Immortal Venerable’s power, his cultivation progress had soared by a full 13 points.

Unfortunately, because he hadn’t been able to refine it completely, his Great Universal Hand was still two points shy of the Realm of Transcendence and Sanctity.

Two points of progress might not seem like much, but without another suitable Immortal Venerable to continue the Refinement, there was no telling how long he’d be stuck.

So, Zou Feng didn’t hesitate and immediately tried to merge the Formless Divine Skill into his Great Universal Hand.

For now, everyone present was still on the same side. They would obviously continue to work together to find a way to leave the Glazed Immortal Palace.

Therefore, Zou Feng could focus on his training for the time being without too many worries.

The moment he attempted the fusion, Zou Feng’s consciousness suddenly sank.

It was as if his entire being had abruptly plummeted into a bottomless abyss.

This feeling of falling into an endless abyss was naturally unbearable, but Zou Feng had completely lost control of himself.

Fortunately, it wasn’t long before the ”abyss” vanished. Zou Feng’s consciousness quickly floated upward, and his surroundings became clear once more.

Like an out-of-body experience, Zou Feng found himself flying high above the mountain peak where the Glazed Immortal Palace was located, able to look down on everything below.

He could even clearly see his own physical body, meditating on the spot.

’What the hell? Did my training just cause my soul to leave my body?’

’Or... could this be the ”Visualization” required for cultivating the Great Universal Hand?’

He stopped overthinking it and simply let himself float in the air, beginning to carefully sense his surroundings.

After sensing for a while, Zou Feng suddenly felt that his consciousness had, to some extent, merged with the Glazed Immortal Palace.

For instance, with just a single thought, he could now send his consciousness to any corner of the Glazed Immortal Palace.

He could even sense the locations of the Immortal Venerables that hadn’t yet been dealt with.

Among the surviving Martial Artists who all appeared normal, there were actually three who had slipped through the net.

However, they were lurking and disguised so well that they hadn’t been exposed, even though they had come face-to-face with Zou Feng before.

In addition, the Fairies he had seen before the Seven Great Fate Halls were also in the distant sky, bowing towards his position from afar.

And they were all proclaiming, ”We greet the Luminous Immortal Venerable!”

Zou Feng was quite baffled by this.

Cultivating the Great Universal Hand and merging it with the Formless Divine Skill should never have produced such a strange phenomenon.

This must be the result of the Immortal Venerable’s power he had just refined.

’So, did I just stumble into inheriting the legacy of the Glazed Immortal Palace?’

At this thought, Zou Feng immediately teleported his consciousness in front of those Fairies.

Up close, it was much more obvious that these ”Fairies” did not have physical bodies.

They were also existences similar to remnant souls.

Zou Feng tried to communicate with them.

But as it turned out, these Fairies all seemed to lack complete Spiritual Wisdom. They would only mechanically repeat their bows, constantly saying, ”We greet the Luminous Immortal Venerable,” like seven broken records...

His inability to restore the Fairies’ normal communication skills was likely also related to his failure to completely refine the Immortal Venerable.

’So, I haven’t truly taken control of the Glazed Immortal Palace. At most, I control a small part of it.’

But this was already considered good luck. It was clearly a huge step forward in figuring out how to leave the Glazed Immortal Palace.

After that, Zou Feng’s consciousness could no longer maintain this out-of-body state and returned to his physical form.

When he opened his eyes again, the Formless Divine Skill had successfully merged, and the anticipated advancement went very smoothly.

”Great Universal Hand (Extraordinary to Saint), Progress: 5%”

Unlike when the Five Poison Sacred Lotus Palm broke through to Extraordinary to Saint, the advancement of the Great Universal Hand produced no obvious phenomena, at least in the eyes of others.

But Zou Feng knew very well that he had just had what amounted to an out-of-body experience, allowing him to perform ”Visualization” on the entire Glazed Immortal Palace.

Now with two Extraordinary to Saint Cultivation Skills in his arsenal, his combat power had soared. Unfortunately, he hadn’t been able to use this opportunity to break through to the First Grade Spirit Body Realm in one go.

Or perhaps, since he had only just advanced to the Second Grade a short while ago, he still needed time to adapt and consolidate his gains.

But there was no need to rush for now. With the actual combat power he could currently wield, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage in the slightest, even against Su Qingyu at her peak.

Moreover, since he now had a certain degree of control over the Glazed Immortal Palace, this place had effectively become his semi-home turf.

If any other Martial Artists dared to make an enemy of him here, it would be no different from seeking death.

Just as Zou Feng was pondering these matters, he suddenly sensed a deep wave of malice for no apparent reason.

’This is...?’

He quickly opened the List of Gods. As expected, another ”big shot” had made the list.

A new name, Gongyang Marquis, was now prominently displayed on the list.
