Chapter 423: Chapter 423: The Birth of the Resentful Infant (Fourth Update)

"""Looking at the burial mound that was located right in the center of the graveyard, at this moment, it was entirely engulfed by a black mist."""

"""That black mist was composed of the extremely yin and cold yin energy, more sinister than even the yin energy emanating from the old witch. A mere touch from it would certainly mean death for an ordinary person!"""

"""Giggling eerily!"""

"""And it was at this time that a child’s laughter echoed through the graveyard."""

"""Under normal circumstances, hearing a child’s laughter wouldn’t be concerning."""

"""But this was in a graveyard, and it was late at night!"""

"""The child’s laughter sounded so bizarre and chilling."""

"""Even Chen Feng couldn’t help but get shivers down his spine."""

"""Because the laughter was so terrifying, making the old witch’s laughter seem minor in comparison."""

"""Ma Qi had already been scared out of her wits, trembling all over, she quickly covered her ears and squatted on the ground, not daring to listen."""

"""Only the old witch, upon hearing this laughter, showed a look of excitement on her face, muttering, "My Resentful Infant, for you, I have spent most of my life! Now, though I have to let you come out earlier than planned and it’s not perfect, seeing you born in my lifetime is enough to die without regrets!" """

"""With those words just spoken."""

"""There was a loud ’bang’."""

"""The burial mound, engulfed by the black mist, exploded abruptly."""

"""Giggling louder!"""

"""The child’s laughter grew louder, and at the same time, a black whirlwind burst out from the exploded grave and soared into the sky, eventually stopping midair."""

"""Gradually, the black whirlwind dissipated, and a naked child with an entirely pale body appeared before everyone’s eyes."""

"""The child’s eyes were completely blood red, emitting a red glow."""

"""His pale skin was covered with many red ghost talismans, making him look extremely eerie."""

"""If an ordinary person were to see this scene, they would probably faint on the spot."""

"""In the middle of the night, a child had suddenly emerged from a burial mound, appearing in such a terrifying form."""

"""It was fortunate that Chen Feng’s resilience was far beyond that of an ordinary person; otherwise, he might have had a heart attack from the fright."""

"""Giggling!"""

"""The child grinned at the crowd below, revealing his teeth."""

"""The child’s mouth, surprisingly, was filled with two rows of sharp teeth, similar to those of a shark, looking like rows of saw blades."""

"""Combined with the child’s terrifying smile, Chen Feng felt the goosebumps rising on his skin."""

""""Elder, what in the world is this?" """

"""Chen Feng wondered inwardly."""

""""So it’s a Resentful Infant!" """

"""The old Taoist exclaimed."""

""" "Resentful Infant? What is that?" """

"""Chen Feng asked in confusion."""

"""As a member of the Dragon Group and the King of Soldiers, he had been carrying out missions for years and had seen all kinds of enemies. He was well-informed, but this was his first time hearing about a Resentful Infant."""

""" "You know about ghost infants, right? It’s when a pregnant woman dies accidentally, but the fetus does not die with her. Because it cannot be born, it harbors great resentment and gradually turns into a ghost infant that torments the living. Later, many unscrupulous cultivators on the Demon Path would specifically capture pregnant women to kill, all to create these ghost infants, then use them for their own purposes!" """

"""The old Taoist explained."""

""" "And the Resentful Infant?" Chen Feng asked in confusion."""

""" "The Resentful Infant is essentially an upgraded version of the ghost infant. Its cultivation method is even more brutal and complicated, but still, many are willing to cultivate it because one Resentful Infant can be much more powerful than hundreds of ghost infants!"""

"To cultivate a Resentful Infant, one must first find a child born at a time with lunar alignments, and the child must be no older than three years,"

"This child must be buried alive at the center of a graveyard. In doing so, the child after death will harbor immense resentment. Then, utilizing the dense Yin Energy of the graveyard combined with Evil Magic and secret techniques for a period of forty-nine years, once born, the child’s power could match an Earth Rank expert directly. If allowed to cultivate further, reaching Heaven Rank is not impossible!"

The Taoist explained to Chen Feng.

"How impressive!" exclaimed Chen Feng.

Earth Rank, let alone in the Mortal World, even in the mysterious Ancient Martial World, was considered a top-tier powerhouse.

Some people cultivate their whole lives and may never reach Earth Rank, yet this Resentful Infant only needed forty-nine years of cultivation to achieve it.

And that’s not even the limit of the Resentful Infant’s power.

The Resentful Infant could also continue cultivating on its own, further elevating its Realm, possibly even challenging the Heaven Rank!

Though the initial cultivation period was somewhat lengthy, once successful, it would definitely make a super powerful fighter and bodyguard.

Just think, if one had a Heaven Rank expert as a protector, wouldn’t they be able to go wherever they wanted on this Earth?

No wonder the method of cultivation is so cruel, yet many people are willing to undertake it, for the temptation is simply too great.

"Resentful Infants are listed among the terrifying beings on the Ancient Demon List. However, you need not worry too much. I just checked, and this Resentful Infant is not at its Perfection; it appears to have been born prematurely by a few years, so its current strength is only at the Xuan Rank Early Stage!"

The Taoist continued.

"Xuan Rank Early Stage?" Chen Feng said, slightly relieved.

If the current power of this Resentful Infant were at Earth Rank, then he would have had no choice but to flee.

After all, he was merely at the peak of Yellow Rank Perfection, a whole major level below Earth Rank – how could he fight?

That would be outright suicide!

But if it’s at the Xuan Rank Early Stage, that would be somewhat better.

Though there was still a huge gap between Yellow Rank Perfection and Xuan Rank Early Stage.

But for ordinary cultivators – not so for Chen Feng. The gap wasn’t quite so substantial for him.

Chen Feng’s cultivation of the "Five Elements Reincarnation Technique" was rather unique; it made the True Qi in his body much more robust than that of cultivators at the same level.

Moreover, Chen Feng had reached the peak of Yellow Rank Perfection, only a step away from Xuan Rank Early Stage.

If Chen Feng exerted all his effort, he might be able to contend with the Resentful Infant!

While Chen Feng and the Taoist were conversing, the Resentful Infant descended from the air and landed beside the Ghost Witch.

"Resentful Infant, you’ve finally been born, seeing you makes me truly happy!"

The Ghost Witch looked at the Resentful Infant and said excitedly.

After all, she had been cultivating this Resentful Infant for nearly forty years, and had been anticipating its birth for just as long.

To say she wasn’t emotional would be a lie!

"Giggles, thank you, Ghost Witch, for your nurture!"

The Resentful Infant grinned sinisterly, bowed to the Ghost Witch, and spoke.

With its strength having reached Xuan Rank Early Stage, it naturally possessed some degree of Spiritual Wisdom!

"Resentful Infant, I originally planned for you to be born after achieving Perfection after forty-nine years, but I had to summon you prematurely because of that boy. You must not let him go!"

The Ghost Witch pointed at Chen Feng, her words seething with resentment.

"No problem!"

The Resentful Infant’s grin turned ghastly as it nodded and then turned its head, fixing its blood-red eyes directly on Chen Feng...
