I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 275 - 252. I, Xia Feng, declare war on the gods!
Shush—
The leaves rustled as black and white figures intertwined between the treetops, swiftly moving forward.
During the interrogation of the half-dragon just now, Xia Feng also learned the approximate location of the assassination team's hunting group.
Since the half-dragon knew nothing more, it would be necessary to seek out his colleagues and superiors to unearth some clues about the Origin Egg.
But before that,
"Hey, Miss Mu, you're not thinking of reneging on our deal, are you?"
The woman in the black dress stopped, turned back, and glanced at him indifferently, saying through a psychic message, "I can tell you about it, but you must keep it confidential."
"Don't worry about it, we're close, your secret is my secret. I, Xia Feng, swear I won't reveal a single thing!" Xia Feng swore, raising his fist.
Well, but my secrets are still my secrets.
Mu Qingtong didn't waste any more words and calmly said, "The core function of the Heavenly Destiny Stone is called 'Heavenly Destiny,' which possesses the ability to alter reality using life power."
"Ah? What's that?" Xia Feng didn't quite understand.
"It means I can spend a corresponding amount of life power to gain a power similar to the Power of Prayer. Anything that I desire can be obtained out of thin air."
"For instance, if I want a Holy Dissolution Material, I can consume a life power value corresponding to the rarity of the material and obtain it out of thin air....."
As he listened to the woman in the black dress's calm explanation, Xia Feng's mouth fell open, his dark pupils widening enormously.
"This ability....."
Obtain out of thin air? Isn't this just like a legendary wishing machine?!
"Isn't this ability a bit too outrageous?" he exclaimed.
Seeing Mr. Xia's shock, Mu Qingtong slightly curled the corners of her lips, a faint smile playing on her lips.
However, she quickly relaxed her smile, suppressing the slight uplift in her emotions.
She was not a person who liked to boast. Boasting about her secrets had no effect on improving her strength and was meaningless, but seeing Mr. Xia's incredulous expression, she inexplicably felt somewhat...thrilled.
Maybe this was the emotional value called 'showing off' that humans were addicted to.
She had never experienced this emotion before, and had to admit, it actually felt quite nice....
"Can you obtain anything you want out of nowhere, anything else?" Xia Feng couldn't help but ask curiously, "Didn't you say it could change reality? Can you wish for a direct enhancement in your realm, or change causes and effects....."
"No," the woman in the black dress shook her head, then paused, "At least not with the current situation. The Heavenly Destiny Stone is still imperfect and many of its rules are flawed. Currently, it can only obtain non-living items that one desires."
"I see...." Xia Feng stroked his chin, lost in thought.
It seemed there were still flaws in the Heavenly Destiny Stone that needed perfecting and fixing, just like his Evil Demon Heart.
But even with its imperfections, it was already incredible; by consuming life power, spiritual materials could be obtained. Mu Qingtong had likely already used this power to gather most of the Holy Dissolution Materials, completely eliminating the need to search far and wide.
"Speaking of which, how do you obtain this 'life power value'?" Xia Feng asked the most crucial question.
Mu Qingtong said evenly, "The Heavenly Destiny Stone can devour divine power and convert it into life power value."
Divine power? Xia Feng was stunned; that was no easy thing to find.
For example, once a Spirit Master ascends to godhood, aside from the Spiritual Energy they inherently possess, they also gain a new type of immensely destructive energy—divine power!
Divine power was not like spiritual quantity,
which could recover to full status in less than a day. Each strand of divine power required hundreds or even thousands of years to gather, making it extremely precious whether to Star Gods or Evil Gods.
Unless it was for something very important, they would not expend divine power.
But the Heavenly Destiny's ability required devouring this substance to form life power, thus enabling wishes...
Xia Feng suddenly felt that using this power was still somewhat difficult, and it looked like... it naturally made enemies of the gods!
Should the gods know of Miss Mu's powers, they would either quickly detour or kill this Evil Witch on the spot and snatch the Heavenly Destiny Stone for themselves!

Damn... Just thinking about it made Xia Feng's scalp tingle, and his heart thundered.
Because he suddenly recalled another matter—
The Dragon God Empress had been sealed under the World Tree, isolated for countless years, seemingly ostracized by the gods.
Guihua Star God, suspected of possessing a Divine Authority that could bring great misfortune to others, was also ostracized by the gods and finally used the Imaginary River to conceal its existence and be reborn.
The Destructive Witch owned the Heavenly Destiny Stone. If she could ever get along with the gods, Xia Feng swore he'd stand on his head and shampoo his hair! Miss Mu had a 99.999% chance of being ostracized by the gods...
Alright, alright, alright...
I, Xia Feng, now (reluctantly) declare war against the gods!
Seeing Mr. Xia's expression suddenly freeze, and he tilted his head back as if constipated, Mu Qingtong was somewhat puzzled:
"What's wrong?"
Xia Feng suddenly snapped back to reality, meeting Miss Mu's golden, intelligent, soft, and curving beautiful eyes, he shook his head, "It's nothing."
Well, why worry about something that might not happen? Just take it one step at a time.
And honestly, by the time Miss Mu grows into her destructive power, those minor gods might not even be enough to get stuck in the Destructive Witch's teeth—she could slap them dead with ease.
So easy~ So very easy~
Thinking this resolutely! Xia Feng looked at Mu Qingtong, asking puzzledly, "So Miss Mu, have you ever obtained any spiritual material with the Heavenly Destiny Stone?"
If she had, it would mean that Miss Mu had some contact with the gods, at least indirectly.
"Mr. Xia, this question is beyond the scope of what I need to answer for the bet," the woman in the black dress replied with a smile, no longer responding.
Xia Feng was about to say something through telepathy, but then he hesitated and looked meaningfully towards the helmeted man floating beside him.
It seemed this guy had entered some kind of death-like state using a certain power and was now about to wake up.
Xia Feng reached out to release the man's Spiritual Pressure and the seal on his senses.
After about three seconds, the thin man in the glass helmet suddenly opened his eyes, his bark-like facial skin slowly returning to normal, though it was still gaunt and bloodless.
The man was dazed for a moment, the scene of a K-faced person appearing before he passed out flashed through his mind. He quickly realized that it was the man in front of him who had saved him.
Though he did not know why, at least there was no malice for the moment.
"Thank you for saving me," he said as he just got up.
"I ask, you answer."
Xia Feng didn't beat around the bush, firing off a series of questions, "How is the Garden investigation team progressing? What have you found? Have you identified the true mastermind behind this?"
The man's wooden-brown pupils instantly turned wary, and he subconsciously stepped back, but finding his body still weak, he stumbled two steps backwards and steadied himself against a tree trunk.
He frowned and said in a deep voice, "Although you have saved my life, this matter is an Empire secret, and I cannot answer."
Xia Feng smiled, not minding, and casually asked a few more questions.
Not long after.
"Master."
Yue Hongli completed her mind reading, and her cold voice resonated in Xia Feng's mind, "He only knows the mastermind is a significant figure from the Northern Territory, likely linked to the Lidong Army, and according to investigation, the Garden case also involves the Bailu Sea Domain's White Emperor City."
"The investigation team came here precisely to investigate White Emperor City."
White Emperor City? Xia Feng was momentarily stunned.
