Hmph— But just at that moment, the President of the Warrior Commerce Alliance let out a soft groan.
Looking over, he could see that pain had already surfaced on her face.
"Senior, what's wrong?"
Chu Feng stepped forward and called out, but she didn't seem to hear him.
So Chu Feng quickly placed his hand on her forehead to observe.
He found that the President of the Warrior Commerce Alliance had apparently fallen into some kind of illusion.
Severing this connection would not be easy.
Chu Feng couldn't help but glance at the Heaven and Earth Treasure.
He suspected that the Heaven and Earth Treasure was most likely behind this.
But compared to Chu Feng's anxiety, the Mad Woman wore a blank expression.
"Since she can't do it, don't blame me."
With those words, the Mad Woman actually sat down cross-legged as well, preparing to refine the Heaven and Earth Treasure.
"Senior, this Heaven and Earth Treasure is unusual."
Chu Feng hurried to dissuade her.
"I know."
After saying that, the Mad Woman paid no more attention to Chu Feng and closed her eyes, beginning to refine the Heaven and Earth Treasure.
But soon, just like the President of the Warrior Commerce Alliance, the Mad Woman also fell into that same state of even greater agony.
Chu Feng quickly set up an array formation and tried a number of other methods.
None of them could sever their connection to the Heaven and Earth Treasure.
Watching their auras grow ever weaker, Chu Feng made his decision.
"I can only destroy this object."
After making his choice, Chu Feng did not act directly.
Instead, he drew the Demon Slaying Sword. Borrowing its power, his cultivation reached the First-rate Heavenly God level.
To guard against any accidents, Chu Feng had to go all out.
But the moment he struck with his sword, Chu Feng realized something was terribly wrong.
His blade struck squarely against the Heaven and Earth Treasure.
Yet this Heaven and Earth Treasure, which had appeared frail and delicate, was now utterly indestructible.
The power of the Demon Slaying Sword could not budge the Heaven and Earth Treasure in the slightest.
"How is this thing so tough?"
"Eggy, should I step in?"
Eggy spoke.
"This Heaven and Earth Treasure is very off."
"I'm afraid even if you stepped in, it wouldn't work."
"We can only try a different method."
As he spoke, Chu Feng also sat down cross-legged and began refining the Heaven and Earth Treasure.
Since brute force wouldn't work, Chu Feng wanted to see from the inside whether he could save the President of the Warrior Commerce Alliance and the Mad Woman.
And once the power of the Heaven and Earth Treasure entered his body, Chu Feng did not gain any cultivation power. Instead, his consciousness was drawn into another space entirely.
However, this was within Chu Feng's expectations.
This space should be quite vast, but he couldn't make out the details because golden flames filled every direction.
Those flames looked beautiful, but they could actually influence the mind. Only by steadying one's mind could one remain unaffected.
If one failed to stabilize their mind, they would be gradually devoured by this power until death.
And as Chu Feng steeled his will, the golden mist began to gradually dissipate.
"Senior?"
Soon, Chu Feng spotted the Mad Woman's figure.
She was sitting cross-legged not far away, in the same posture as outside.
Only now, golden flames coiled around the Mad Woman's body, devouring her life force, her bloodline, and her cultivation.
Though the rate of absorption wasn't particularly fast, if it continued, death would be inevitable.
Seeing that calling out was useless, Chu Feng quickly stepped forward and placed his palm on the Mad Woman's forehead.
Fortunately.
Although this wasn't her real body, he still had access to the body's power.
Many techniques could be employed.
Using the Barrier Technique, and having pinpointed the source where the Mad Woman's power connected with this place, Chu Feng successfully awakened the Mad Woman and reinforced her mind.
The Mad Woman's first reaction upon waking was terror.
It wasn't until she saw Chu Feng clearly that she let out a sigh of relief.
It wasn't that she was cowardly—she had just been staring death in the face.
Anyone would have been afraid.
