His heart now pounded like an engine revving at full throttle, its thunderous rhythm driving him forward.
His running speed surged dramatically, leaving deep craters in the earth with each stride. Each leap carried him over twenty meters.
As he closed in on the giant tiger, just as Feng Qi prepared to strike, the humanoid leader suddenly leaped off the tiger's back and raised his left hand.
A phantom materialized in mid-air, catching him and whisking him away at high speed.
The giant tiger skidded to a halt, sliding several meters before abruptly turning to pounce on Feng Qi.
Clenching his fist, now wreathed in dark-green flames, Feng Qi met the tiger's charge with a devastating punch.
Boom!
With a mournful roar, the giant tiger's head caved in as it was sent flying sideways, crashing through several trees before finally coming to a stop.
Blood streamed down its forehead as the tiger let out another ferocious roar and lunged at Feng Qi again.
Watching the humanoid leader retreating into the distance, Feng Qi's resolve hardened.
He caught the charging tiger, using its momentum to slam it to the ground. With his right leg already poised, he delivered a brutal kick to the tiger's head.
Boom!
The giant tiger was sent flying again, its head now a bloody mess, completely devoid of resistance.
Without pausing, Feng Qi sprinted toward the direction the humanoid leader had fled.
Guided by the Narrator's coordinates, he soon spotted the humanoid leader again.
The leader was now surrounded by phantoms, floating effortlessly toward the coastline.
Under the strain of his enhanced state, Feng Qi's qi blood was depleting rapidly, shortening the duration of his blood source. He needed to end this quickly.
Telekinesis surged from his body, instantly closing the distance to the humanoid leader and attempting to drag it back.
However, the telekinetic force proved insufficient to restrain the leader.
His only goal was to slow down the humanoid leader's movement, creating an opportunity for a decisive strike.
The tactic proved effective, as the humanoid leader's speed noticeably decreased.
As the distance closed, Feng Qi let out a furious roar. The ground beneath his feet cratered from the force of his leap, propelling him upward in a sudden, explosive motion as he lunged toward the humanoid leader.
Soaring through the air, he grabbed hold of the phantom and slammed his fist into the humanoid leader's shoulder.
Crack!
The crisp sound of bone breaking echoed through the air. The phantom shuddered, its form flickering between solid and ethereal states, becoming increasingly unstable.
The humanoid leader screamed in agony from the brutal impact, nearly falling off the phantom.
But he quickly regained his composure, gritting his teeth as he manipulated the phantom, attempting to throw Feng Qi off his back.
With victory within reach, Feng Qi refused to let go.
The phantom's hands flailed wildly against his body, but Feng Qi endured the pain, a ferocious grin spreading across his face as he climbed closer to the humanoid leader.
At that moment, the humanoid leader braced his legs, preparing to leap off the phantom.
But the instant his feet left the phantom's back, Feng Qi unleashed his telekinesis, briefly binding the humanoid leader in place.
Seizing the opportunity, Feng Qi grabbed the humanoid leader by the neck.
Veins slowly bulged on his right arm as he began to tighten his grip.
The humanoid leader struggled violently, his face turning crimson with agony.
The sound of cracking bones echoed as his struggles grew weaker. At that moment, the faith phantom shattered into nothingness.
As they crashed to the ground, Feng Qi slammed the humanoid leader into the earth.
Crunch!
With overwhelming force, the humanoid leader's body sank into the soil.
Feng Qi then grabbed the humanoid leader and hurled him against a nearby tree.
The tree, so thick it would have taken three men to encircle, toppled instantly. The impact completely extinguished the humanoid leader's resistance.
Approaching the humanoid leader, Feng Qi's face remained expressionless.
His descending fist sealed the humanoid leader's fate.
In the humanoid leader's final moments, Feng Qi captured a flood of fragmented memories.
These memories revealed the story of a stubborn young man's rise—how, after obtaining the Miracle Bracelet, he had transformed from a low-ranking clansman, dismissed by his peers, into the clan leader.
Crack!
With the sound of shattering bones, the humanoid leader's life force completely extinguished.
A dense mass of qi blood surged from its body and burrowed into Feng Qi's.
He yanked the Miracle Bracelet from the humanoid leader's left wrist and clutched it in his hand.
Scanning his surroundings, he spotted the white sandy beach through the gaps in the foliage. He had unknowingly circled back to the shore.
Pushing aside the dense foliage that obscured his view, he stepped onto the beach.
His body had endured extreme strain during the chase, leaving him utterly exhausted.
After catching his breath for a moment, his Blood Source Form dissipated into crimson mist that scattered with the wind, reverting him to his Battle Body Form.
Suddenly, an overwhelming hunger struck him.
Though his Battle Body Form lacked any organs except for a heart, he felt intensely hungry.
This sensation stemmed from his body's desperate need for energy replenishment, similar to the ravenous hunger he experienced after returning from the Dream Realm.
As his physical strength increased, the energy required to sustain his body's functions also surged.
After fastening the Miracle Bracelet to his right wrist, he stood still for a moment to rest before turning his gaze toward the azure sea stretching before him.
Reaching the shore, he dove into the water.
In the dead of night, the moon shone brightly amidst a sparse scattering of stars.
A bonfire crackled on the beach. Feng Qi, who had already absorbed the sea beast's qi blood and returned to his human form, stared expectantly at the sea beast roasting over the flames.
You must be starving! You're practically drooling.
Ignoring the Narrator's comment, Feng Qi kept his gaze fixed on the sea beast, occasionally turning the wooden skewer to ensure even cooking.
The sizzling sound and the rich, savory aroma constantly stirred his appetite.
The sea beast's flesh was remarkably tough, requiring a long time to cook thoroughly. But Feng Qi couldn't wait any longer. He tore off a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, ignoring the scalding heat.
The unprecedentedly tender texture made his eyes widen.
"Delicious!"
He tore off another strip of meat along the grain and devoured it, a look of pure satisfaction spreading across his face.
It really does taste amazing! I can feel your enjoyment too. I want some!
Damn it! Just thinking about it makes me furious! Why don't I have a physical body? Am I just a wage slave who gives everything and gets nothing in return?
"Here, have this piece," Feng Qi offered provocatively. "Come and get it."
Gloating? I think it's time to end this cultivation plan and possess your body!
Hearing this, the smile instantly froze on Feng Qi's face.
Seeing his reaction, the Narrator burst into laughter.
