Chapter 2522 - 2522: The Five-Winged God's Plot

As soon as the power entered his body, it vanished instantly, and Wanyan Hongfeng clearly felt this peculiar situation. However, his body did not undergo significant changes. So, the only possibility was that the Five-Winged God was up to something.

"Hahaha..." The Five-Winged God's laughter rang out: "You're not entirely foolish, realizing it's me causing trouble!"

The Five-Winged God's words seemed to acknowledge the matter, making Wanyan Hongfeng's face colder. The Five-Winged God was up to no good within him and dared to admit it, what exactly did this Five-Winged God mean?

"You dare to steal my power!" Wanyan Hongfeng said solemnly, "I see you're prepared to rebel, clearly, I can't tolerate you anymore!"

"Oh, really?" The Five-Winged God spoke with no trace of fear, instead laughing, "You can't tolerate me, what will you do then? Kill me?"

"I've said before, if I want to kill you, it's not difficult at all!" Wanyan Hongfeng gritted his teeth, "I just need to abandon this body to kill you!"

"Abandon this body, how cruel!" The Five-Winged God coldly laughed, "But, can you really abandon this body?"

"What do you mean?" Wanyan Hongfeng asked, suddenly feeling something was wrong with his body—he couldn't control it anymore.

"Still not getting it?" The Five-Winged God sneered, "My current power is stronger than yours; you can no longer suppress me. Now, I can freely control this body of yours, while you cannot. You can't even abandon this body now!"

"How...? How could it be like this?" Wanyan Hongfeng cried out in shock.

"What's so surprising about it?" The Five-Winged God said, "You've been severely injured, your power is all but spent."

"Even if my power is greatly depleted, it's still stronger than yours!" Wanyan Hongfeng exclaimed angrily, "You don't even have a Peak Master's power, how... how can you suppress me!"

"That was before!" The Five-Winged God sneered, "Now, I have the power of a Single-Winged God. Our power levels are almost the same, but my power hasn't been depleted, while yours is exhausted. Do you think I can suppress you?"

Wanyan Hongfeng shouted in surprise, "How could you gain the power of a Single-Winged God so quickly?"

"Speaking of it, I should thank you!" The Five-Winged God laughed, "I belong to the Dark Divine Race, to recover my power, either I cultivate slowly myself, but you wouldn't let me cultivate, basically cutting off my path to recovery. So, I had to choose another way..."

The Five-Winged God let out a mocking laugh: "That way is the Blood Scripture!"

"Blood Scripture?" Upon hearing this, Wanyan Hongfeng felt a jolt in his heart; he realized he must have fallen for the Five-Winged God's trap.

"The Blood Scripture is a specialized cultivation method of our Dark Divine Race. Did you think it was suitable for just anyone?" The Five-Winged God sneered, "For members of our Dark Divine Race, once injured, the best recovery method is not slow cultivation, but blood absorption—human blood! As long as we absorb enough human blood, no matter how severe the injury, we can recover, no matter how much power is lost, it can be regained, do you understand?"

Wanyan Hongfeng said solemnly, "So you taught me the Blood Scripture, intentionally using my body to absorb blood for you?"

The Five-Winged God sneered, "It seems you're not completely foolish; yes, I needed your body to absorb blood for me to recover quickly!"

Wanyan Hongfeng's face turned extremely cold, remaining silent for a moment, then said, "Since you wanted to use the Blood Scripture to recover your powers, why were you so reluctant when teaching it to me?"

"Are you stupid? If I gladly taught you, you would indeed be suspicious of me. The more reluctant I was, the more you thought that Blood Scripture was beneficial to you, and the more seriously you would cultivate it!" The Five-Winged God laughed with satisfaction, "Facts have proven I was right, you didn't disappoint me at all. Not only did you master the Blood Scripture but absorbed so much human blood, allowing me to recover quickly!"

With the Five-Winged God's words, Wanyan Hongfeng completely despaired. At this moment, he finally understood, the Five-Winged God's plan had already started when he began learning the Blood Scripture. Yet he had no idea, even believing he had obtained a superior cultivation method, absorbing so much blood from clan members for killing Fat Jiao, losing his standing in the clan, and ultimately allowing this Five-Winged God to reap the greatest benefit. If he'd known earlier, he would never have done such a thing!

"You're despicable!" Wanyan Hongfeng gritted his teeth and said.

"Despicable?" The Five-Winged God coldly laughed, "Those words, I won't entertain with me. Didn't you also use such despicable means to pressure me? I'm just returning the favor."

Wanyan Hongfeng's face was profoundly ugly; had he known the Five-Winged God would have such means, he would've killed him early on instead of leaving him. He thought the Five-Winged God's power had weakened to such a degree that he could completely control him. That's why he dared to take liberties with the Five-Winged God. Unbeknownst to him, scheming exhaustively, ultimately he was like Mantis pursuing the cicada with the yellow bird behind, falling into the Five-Winged God's trap.

"Furthermore, I actually didn't need to increase your strength by double to let your power reach the Two-Winged God level." The Five-Winged God continued, "Your power was already at the brink of Two-Winged God, any slight increase would be enough. But I made you double your power, do you know why?"

"Why?" Wanyan Hongfeng asked solemnly.

"Simple, because I needed more power!" The Five-Winged God sneered, "Although human blood can rapidly recover my injuries and enhance my strength, increasing power isn't that simple. So, human blood to me is merely for recovery from injuries. To restore power, the best way is to absorb external power, and Heavenly Cluster Clouds' power is most fitting. Yamata no Orochi's power is complicated, but in my current situation, I can't afford to be picky."

"So you had me absorb all that power from Heavenly Cluster Clouds, and a large part of it was absorbed by you!" Wanyan Hongfeng said solemnly.

"That's not the case." The Five-Winged God sneered, "Back then my power was weak, how dare I directly absorb the power. If I had directly absorbed, you would definitely notice, so wouldn't that be suicidal? But after you absorbed the power, you handed your body to me for control. At that moment, I elevated a part of your power to the Two-Winged God level, stealthily absorbing part of the power without you noticing. Because you have no understanding of the difference between Two-Winged God and Single-Winged God power, nor would you know what manipulations I made within!"

Wanyan Hongfeng suddenly fell silent, these matters he indeed did not know. He had given control of his body to the Five-Winged God because he couldn't kill Fat Jiao and thus wanted to use the Five-Winged God's help. Moreover, he thought the Five-Winged God was critically injured, even if controlling his body wouldn't be particularly useful. To recover from such severe injuries in such a short time seemed impossible. Furthermore, he had been observing from the sidelines, ready to seize back control and stop the Five-Winged God if there was any sign of movement. He never dreamed the Five-Winged God had manipulated things when elevating the power level.

The entire process looked as if he was assisting the Five-Winged God in recovery. Not only absorbing human blood enabling the rapid recovery of injuries but also a significant power absorption aiding the Five-Winged God's power restoration. No wonder the Five-Winged God acquired Single-Winged God power so quickly; after recovering injuries, he absorbed Heavenly Cluster Clouds' power. Not recovering would indeed be odd.

"What do you wish to accomplish?" Wanyan Hongfeng said solemnly, "Since you already possess the power of a Single-Winged God, you can kill me and control this body anytime. Why return to my Wanyan Family?"

"Hahaha..." The Five-Winged God laughed aloud, "I am the fairest in what I do; since I've used your body, I won't use it for nothing. I've occupied your body; I will help you realize your unfulfilled dreams!"

"What do you mean?" Wanyan Hongfeng asked solemnly, intuition telling him that this Five-Winged God had malicious intentions.

"Still don't understand? I will accomplish what you couldn't!" The Five-Winged God laughed, "I will open the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, sweep across Huaxia, help the Wanyan Family achieve the unparalleled dominance you've plotted for a millennium—replacing you, guiding them to complete it all!"

Upon hearing this, Wanyan Hongfeng was not the least bit excited but filled with terror. Hearing these words from the Five-Winged God's mouth created an indescribable terrifying sense. He doubted that the Five-Winged God would be so kind-hearted; instead, he sensed something unusual in the words, that the Five-Winged God intended to use this body to completely seize control over the Wanyan Family!

It appeared the Five-Winged God valued the Wanyan Family's strength, accumulated over millennia. Though not comparable to a singular Five-Winged God, it is still a formidable power. Moreover, in the current Huaxia, the Wanyan Family's strength remains immensely robust. Before the Five-Winged God's power is fully restored, he will certainly utilize the Wanyan Family for his matters too. That means starting now, the Wanyan Family will be exploited by the Five-Winged God, and Wanyan Family's millennium strength is now entirely accumulated for the Five-Winged God!

"You... you..." Wanyan Hongfeng's voice trembled with anger: "You dare to use my Wanyan Family for your purposes? You're despicable!"

"I'll say it again, the word despicable does not suit me in the least!" The Five-Winged God coldly snorted and continued, "Moreover, I'm helping your Wanyan Family fulfill its millennium dream, how could that be considered despicable? Shouldn't you be thanking me?"
