Yi Feng settled the man's corpse.
Looking at his clothes torn to shreds by vultures,
He thought for a moment, then removed the man's clothes and draped his own wolf skin over him.
As he prepared to leave, Yi Feng suddenly noticed a book hidden beneath the clothes.
Curious, he stepped forward and picked up the book.
Celestial Demon Body...
Wow, that name sounds incredibly impressive!
Could this be his destined opportunity?
Yi Feng opened the book, and the words that met his eyes sent a shock through his entire body!
Resist injury and repel magic...
Yi Feng's eyes lit up.
Does this mean that if he practiced this technique, he wouldn't have to fear anyone's attacks?
If that 1000 fate points teleportation item hadn't tricked him, he could have gone out to wander around and stir up some trouble. When bored, he could go out to seek the meaning of life.
He could roam freely without fear of being beaten to death.
If real danger arose, he could always return to Dark Shadow Island.
The more Yi Feng thought about it, the more appealing it seemed.
In that case, this Dark Shadow Island... could even become his retirement home...
Yi Feng stood up and carefully surveyed his surroundings.
In the distance, wild sands swept by, and further away, massive tornadoes swirled beneath dark, heavy clouds, the wind cutting like a knife.
What a wonderful environment this is.
A smile spread across Yi Feng's face. No sunlight meant no fear of sunburn, and no rain meant no fear of getting soaked.
No need to fight for fame or fortune, no need to compete or struggle with others.
And with hardly any people around, living alone wouldn't be a problem.
Moreover, even if there were people on this island, they couldn't use their magical powers.
With his martial arts skills rivaling those of gods, even the mightiest beings would have to address him respectfully.
The more Yi Feng looked, the more he liked this place.
This was the perfect garden retreat he had always dreamed of!
Yi Feng settled the corpse and left with the technique manual he had found.
Yi Feng made another big circuit around Dark Shadow Island, trying to find anything that could earn him fate points.
After a full day, he had nothing to show for it.
Seeing the sky gradually darken, he returned home.
As soon as he entered the house, he opened the manual and began to practice.
To say he was practicing would be an overstatement; it was more like simply reading.
Yi Feng had no idea how to cultivate. After all, he had never practiced cultivation before.
All of his current abilities had been given to him by the system.
But he didn't let that deter him. After carefully reading through the manual, he prepared to follow the cultivation method described in the book.
He sat cross-legged with a serious expression and closed his eyes.
However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he let out an involuntary yawn. Before he could even decide where to begin, he drifted off into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, when Yi Feng woke up, he remembered the important task at hand: cultivation.
Right, he needed to continue practicing.
Yi Feng sat up straight, ready to resume his cultivation, when he suddenly noticed his skin.
His originally fair skin had turned a bronze color!
After just one night...
"Hiss..." Yi Feng suddenly sat up, the grogginess from his morning grumpiness completely vanishing.
He raised both hands, staring at them wide-eyed... This... His skin color had completely changed...
How could he get so tanned on an island without sunlight?
Could he have accidentally eaten something poisonous?
But he clearly hadn't eaten anything strange.
Scary things always reveal themselves slowly!
Suddenly remembering something, Yi Feng picked up the manual from his bedside and opened it.
That's right, he had been practicing this technique all night, diligently cultivating until he fell asleep!
Besides that, nothing else had happened.
Flipping to the end, he indeed found the answer on the last page.
When the Celestial Demon Body technique reaches perfection, the entire body's skin takes on a bronze hue.
"Perfection???" Yi Feng was extremely surprised upon seeing this. "Oh my god, I reached perfection in just one night???"
"Hard work pays off!" Yi Feng laughed heartily while hugging the book. "It seems my efforts weren't in vain! I actually reached perfection overnight!"
After his excitement subsided, Yi Feng couldn't help but marvel at his own incredible talent.
In just one night, he had mastered this Celestial Demon Body technique.
It seemed he was no longer the talentless waste he once was!
Looking at it this way, with his amazing talent, mastering other techniques in the Immortal Realm would surely be a piece of cake!
If that was the case, as long as he saved up enough fate points, he would have a multitude of exciting things to do!
For example, he could first join a major sect. With his exceptional talent, he could have his pick of any good sect.
Becoming the top disciple would be a breeze, and then he could find even more powerful techniques within the sect. He could practice hundreds of them.
Preferably a sect with plenty of beautiful women, so that while practicing techniques, he could also use his personal charm to make the lovely junior sisters develop inappropriate feelings for him.
At the same time... this Dark Shadow Island, feared throughout the Immortal Realm, could become his private retreat.
When facing danger, he could come back to lay low and take a vacation.
The future looked bright indeed!
