I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 29. Alpha

Xia Feng thought for a moment and explained, "When receiving information from a spiritual artifact, the level column doesn't display 'N,' but rather a single word: a, l, p, h, a."

"I thought this meant Grade A," Xia Feng said regretfully, rubbing his forehead.

Black Crow: "."

Black Crow: "."

Black Crow: "."

"Hello, hello? Ms. Black Crow?" Xia Feng looked up in confusion, only to see that Black Crow's pupils were somewhat vacant as she stared at him. He waved his hand, "What's wrong? Are you alright?"

Fluttering~
Just then, the black crow suddenly flew down from the branch and flashed straight in front of Xia Feng, its gaze serious and its voice trembling slightly: "Say that word again."

Xia Feng paused for a moment, then said, "alpha."

"Alpha?" Black Raven murmured in a trembling voice, looking at Xia Feng as if he were a monster. "You actually awakened Alpha?!"

"What...what do you mean?" Xia Feng asked, but then he realized what was going on and his eyes widened in surprise. "Ah, so my magical artifact is actually very powerful? It's not S-rank, is it?"

"You big idiot!" Black Crow slapped Xia Feng on the head with its wing and said angrily, "This is a god, an Alpha-level spiritual artifact that all the gods would yearn for!"

"Huh?" Xia Feng's pupils slowly widened. "So you mean my spiritual artifact is even rarer than an S-rank?"

"nonsense!"

Black Crow was furious when she saw that the little brat still didn't clearly realize what he had awakened.

"This is outrageous! This is outrageous!" She took a deep breath and kept muttering to herself.

None of the people she helped awakened an S-rank spiritual weapon, but one did awaken an Alpha-rank one!

This human brat is completely unexpected!

"Ms. Black Crow, please calm down—" Xia Feng felt that this old lady was even more excited than him. "Could you please explain to me what this is all about?"

"."

Black Crow regained his composure, pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said in a deep voice, "This involves some secrets, which I cannot explain to you in detail."

"In short, you only need to remember two things. First, this is a level of spiritual artifact that even a Star God might not be able to awaken. Second, from now on, do not tell anyone about your spiritual artifact's level, not even your closest relatives! Remember, this secret must be kept to yourself!"

Seeing Lady Black Crow's serious expression, Xia Feng nodded earnestly. He roughly understood that this was a terrifying level that would bring him a god-level calamity.

“I understand,” Xia Feng said, looking up. “But Ms. Black Crow, I have another question.”

Xia Feng had awakened such an outrageous spiritual artifact, and Black Crow's attitude subconsciously improved considerably, as he softly said, "What?"

"Since your spirit artifact space can activate spirit artifacts, does it also help upgrade spirit artifacts?" Xia Feng blinked.

"Figure that out yourself, don't come to me for everything." Black Crow rolled his eyes. "The spirit artifact space can only help with awakening, it has no other function. If you want to improve your spirit artifact abilities, you either need to comprehend them in life-or-death battles, or find the corresponding attribute-specific stones."

The ability to dissect stones can upgrade the power of magical artifacts.

Among them, the [non-attribute] stones are cheap because they can only temporarily improve the spirit weapon, usually priced at 20 each, similar to performance-enhancing drugs in a competition.

As for the [Existence Attribute] Stone, it is simply unavailable on the market, since it possesses the ability to permanently perfect a magical artifact.

For example, his Divine Mirror Without a Platform belongs to the Water element. Currently, only the replication function is activated. The remaining optimization and authenticity removal can be temporarily activated by the Unsolvable Stone. If a Water-Solving Stone can be found, it can be permanently activated.

However, hydrolyzed stone is extremely rare and usually only appears at auctions. Whenever one appears, it is bought for tens or even hundreds of millions of Imperial Coins.

"As expected, poor people simply can't afford the profession of Spirit Master." Xia Feng thought to himself, but suddenly, his expression changed and he clutched his heart.

dong dong dong -- dong dong dong --

Xia Feng glanced at the woman on the seat, then turned back and gestured, "I'm going to take my daily dose?"

Black Crow snapped out of his daze and nodded: "Go."

Just like last time, Xia Feng passed through the terrifying field of evil energy without any hindrance. The closer he got, the faster his heart beat, and his legs trembled uncontrollably as he walked. It wasn't fear, but rather the trembling of excessive excitement.

Miss Evil Dragon remained seated with her eyes lowered, her forehead adorned with a dark gold cross, her face, half dragon scales and half breathtaking beauty, both alluring and holy.

Standing still, Xia Feng leaned down slightly and gently lifted her chin, bringing his lips half an inch closer to his and taking a deep breath. Thick strands of black fluid instantly seeped into his thin lips.

The black crow stood on the branch, watching this strange scene with its vertical pupils looking eerie.

She already thought it was strange enough that Xia Feng could ignore her curse field, but now he had awakened an alpha. She still couldn't see through this human named Xia Feng.

However, she did understand one thing: the outside world was about to change. Black Crow was filled with thoughts, and she withdrew her gaze from the throne and slowly closed her dark eyes.

"Little human brat, I hope you can really wake Him up."

[Remaining activity: 12 days and 5 hours]

With an additional seven days of lifespan, there's no need to worry about vitality for now, but it's still far from completely repairing the Demon Heart and generating new abilities.

It seems I need to raise my spiritual pressure level as soon as possible. This will not only increase the time my soul can leave my body, but also increase the amount of evil energy I can absorb in a single instance.

With a satisfied expression, Xia Feng, having entered a state of enlightenment, left the Evil Dragon Space.

His soul returned to his body. He looked around and saw that the experimental classroom was dimly lit, and the array patterns on the ground had long since disappeared.

After quickly putting the desks and chairs back in their places, he hurriedly left the classroom.

*
"Is that the place?"

Yan Xujia looked up at the luxurious villa in the distance.

A woman dressed in flamboyant attire behind him chuckled softly, "The intelligence says this is the home of a girl named Mo Gugu. Xia Feng hasn't gone home since last night and has been staying here."

Hearing this, Yan Xujia shook his head and chuckled: "This idiot, does he think I can't find him just because he's hiding here? Let's go."

With a wave of his hand, he led his men away quickly.

"Hey, Brother Yan~ wait for me~" the woman said coquettishly, quickly following at the front.

But just as she turned the corner, a pair of eerie green vertical pupils lit up in the darkness. "Ah!!!" The woman was so frightened that she took a step back, twisted her ankle, and fell to the ground with a thud, her face turning deathly pale.

But as the streetlights flickered, everyone was finally able to see the owner of those vertical pupils; it turned out to be a white Persian cat.

"Blue, Blue—stop running away!" Mushroom ran breathlessly to the Persian cat, squatted down, hugged it tightly, and complained, "Seriously, I told you I ordered takeout, the cat food should be here any minute!"

Tap, tap, tap, tap—

The crisp sound of heels striking the ground, and a pair of bright red high heels appeared in her peripheral vision. Mushroom looked up in confusion.

The heavily made-up woman looked down at him with a furrowed brow and said in a cold, disgusted voice, "Is this your cat?"

Upon seeing the stranger, Mushroom instantly tensed up. She pursed her lips and nodded softly, "Yes, yes."

"Your cat scared me," the woman said coldly, frowning.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Blue didn't mean it." Mushroom seemed a little flustered.

"Xia Feng can stay at your house."

Yan Xujia stepped forward, glanced at the door behind the mushroom, and said, "Let him come out. We've given him so much time; he should have figured out the importance of the benefits by now."

Mushroom snapped out of her daze and realized the other party's intentions. Her whole body tensed instantly, her face flushed, and she clenched her fists, glaring angrily at the man and woman in front of her.

Yan Xujia narrowed his eyes slightly. He hated that look. He sneered and was about to tell the woman to teach this short man a lesson.

But then the girl with the mushroom-shaped haircut and the stick-up tuft of hair suddenly lowered her head and whispered a single word: "Okay."

As she spoke, Mushroom took out her phone, her fingers trembling slightly, and typed out a few words at the fastest speed she had ever done.

[Mushroom Hates Potatoes: Don't come back yet, Yan Xujia is here]

But just as she pressed the send button, a slender hand with bright red nail polish suddenly reached out and pulled—

"Give it back to me!!" Mushroom's face turned pale, and she jumped up anxiously to snatch it.

But she was too short. The woman pressed her forehead with one hand and handed the phone to Yan Xujia with the other, chuckling softly, "Brother Yan~ this little one is being naughty."

Yan Xujia took it and glanced at it, his face darkening slightly as he looked up at the mushroom with indifferent eyes: "Slap him."

"Okay~"

The woman grabbed Mushroom's hair, smiled, and raised her right hand, painted with bright red nail polish, high again.
