A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

At the same time, Feng Jiutian felt his spiritual power gradually increasing at a slow pace.

However, after refining three Spirit Ascension Pills, Feng Jiutian was somewhat tired. This fatigue was not physical, but mental. Feng Jiutian rubbed his head and then called out Jiuyao.

"Jiuyao, take me out to find some moderately strong magical beasts so I can train. You stay here and keep watch over me. Only intervene if I'm in danger," Feng Jiutian said after recovering a little.

"Hey, do you have to work so hard? You just spent so long refining pills, don't you want to rest for a while?" Jiu Yao said with a bit of concern.

"No, I need to hurry up and become stronger. Only in this way can I control my own destiny. Besides, you're here to watch over me. With you here, I'm sure I won't get hurt too badly."

Jiuyao's small eyes darted around for a moment, then he nodded. He seemed quite satisfied with Feng Jiutian's trust.

"Alright, I'll take you out. With me here, no magical beast can harm you." After saying that, Jiuyao left the cave, and Feng Jiutian followed behind her.

After walking for a while, Feng Jiutian saw a fourth-tier demonic ape, which was perfect for practicing against.

As he spoke, he pulled out a dagger and charged at the ape, which angrily swung its claw at Feng Jiutian.

Feng Jiutian twisted the ape's attack with a peculiar movement, and at the same time, the dagger in her hand glowed red as she sliced ​​off one of the ape's arms.

The monkey, in pain, tried to escape, but Feng Jiutian wouldn't give it the chance.

Seeing the ape turn to flee, Feng Jiutian's vines, which were spreading in the dark, immediately grabbed the ape's legs, and then the dagger, accompanied by a small fire dragon, slammed into the demonic ape.

Sensing the threat of death, the demonic ape activated its spiritual power, forming a barrier in front of itself.

However, the fire dragon, using daggers as its fangs, effortlessly shattered the spiritual energy barrier that the demonic ape had painstakingly created.

Then the fire dragon dissipated, and the dagger was precisely embedded in the demon ape's throat.

"We're having monkey brains tonight!" Jiuyao shouted happily.

Then Feng Jiutian walked over, pulled the dagger from the ape, wiped it, and put it back on his person. Then Jiuyao dragged the ape and followed Feng Jiutian back to the cave.

Back in the cave, Jiu Yao smashed open the demonic ape's head with a single punch, pulled out the monkey brain, and ate it. Meanwhile, Feng Jiu Tian condensed a cluster of flames, roasted the ape, ate a little, and then found a place to fall into a deep sleep.

For the next month, Feng Jiutian lived in this hectic rhythm: refining pills, killing magical beasts, then sleeping. After waking up, he would continue refining pills. His life revolved around these three points.

Over the course of a month, Feng Jiutian had consumed quite a few magical beasts from the third level, and the five elemental beads within her body were growing larger and larger.

Two days ago, she also successfully advanced to become a senior alchemist.

This further boosted Feng Jiutian's mental strength, allowing him to control the increasingly powerful five elements within his body.

It's time to go up to the fourth floor. Feng Jiutian has already plundered most of the rare and precious materials on the third floor in the past two months, and he has also killed and eaten some powerful magical beasts.

During this time, Xiao Jin also fell into a deep sleep because he often ate the magical beasts here, which was obviously a breakthrough towards becoming a seventh-tier magical beast.

It looks like we won't be able to call on Xiao Jin for help for a while.

After resting for a day to recover from the fatigue of continuous alchemy and adjust his physical condition, Feng Jiutian discovered the light circle leading to the fourth level while hunting magical beasts.

Taking a deep breath, Feng Jiutian stepped into the light circle without hesitation.

The scenery before her changed, and Feng Jiutian found herself in a wilderness, which felt very similar to the environment of the third level. However, Feng Jiutian did not lower her guard because of this.

Suddenly, Feng Jiutian felt the ground begin to tremble.

Is an earthquake coming?

Feng Jiutian secretly guessed, but she immediately knew that it was not an earthquake, because a huge magical beast was running from afar. It looked like a rhinoceros, but its body was larger than an elephant.

The tremors were caused by his limbs landing on the ground.

"Damn it! How could there be a Chi here!" Xuanji Zi shouted angrily from within the Void Space.

"Old man, what's wrong? You recognize this magical beast? Tell me about its weaknesses?" Feng Jiutian had never seen this kind of magical beast before and asked curiously.

"Girl, run! You can't beat him right now. This Chi is an ancient beast with incredibly tough hide and excellent resistance to elements. Moreover, Chi is born with the mutated element of lightning, as well as earth element. Although he isn't very agile, he can use earth element to create a gravity field, which will greatly restrict you in the field."

“With your current strength, even if I were to run into him, you wouldn’t fare well. When I was young, I once went with a group to hunt down a Chi. Although that Chi was much stronger than this one, many of the experts on our team died before we finally killed it,” Xuanji Zi said, her voice tinged with worry.

“Old man, didn’t you notice that the entrance disappeared after we came in? This is probably the test of the third level of the Phoenix Tower. It seems we won’t be able to get out even if we want to. Besides, there’s still the Nine Luminaries, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

"Yeah, yeah! It's just a little chinchilla. How about I take it out and kill it for you right now?"

Nine Luminaries spoke confidently within the ethereal space.

However, Feng Jiutian does not want to rely on the strength of Jiuyao right now.

The inner demon I encountered on the second level was overcome through my perseverance, and I obtained the Crimson Lotus Night Flame. This means that there might be a reward after each level of the Phoenix Tower's trials. However, if Jiu Yao were to intervene, the reward might become uncertain.

Although this beast looks fierce, it is still a fifth-tier magical beast. I am not without the ability to fight it.

"Jiuyao, don't come out yet. Let me fight this Chi for a while. You can come out to save me when my life is in danger," Feng Jiutian said calmly.

"Well, be careful yourself."

As they spoke, Chi had already charged at Feng Jiutian three times, but each time Feng Jiutian dodged him with ease. This was also the reason why Feng Jiutian was confident in fighting Chi.

As Chi charged at Feng Jiutian again, Feng Jiutian stomped her foot and jumped into the air. Then she flipped over and stood on Chi's back. She then drew her dagger and plunged it into Chi's skin with a deep red smudge.

Sure enough! With the blessing of the Crimson Lotus Night Flame, she was able to hurt this Chi. Feng Jiutian was overjoyed, but the next second she felt a sense of danger.

Feng Jiutian had great faith in her sixth sense, which had saved her life more than once in her previous life. Without hesitation, she kicked Chi and used the recoil to flip over.
