Xiao Feng was no exception. Although he could absorb the malevolent energy of the world to continuously grow stronger, he was also affected by the various evil thoughts contained within that energy.
Originally, with Xiao Feng's strength, he shouldn't have been driven to lose control by the evil thoughts in the malevolent energy during his first absorption.
However, the area Xiao Feng was currently in was quite special. The headquarters of the Supreme Alliance was rebuilt from the Demon Flame Valley, and the Demon Flame Valley was an established force in the Black Corner Region.
The overall strength of the Black Corner Region might be far inferior to that of the Central Continent, but its level of chaos far surpassed it, making it the most chaotic place recognized on the Dou Qi Continent.
Therefore, the malevolent energy contained within the Black Corner Region naturally far exceeded that of other places, causing Xiao Feng to lose control during his first absorption of the world's malevolent energy.
Influenced by the various evil thoughts within that malevolent energy, Xiao Feng's expression began to shift constantly—sometimes angry, sometimes sorrowful, sometimes fearful, and sometimes greedy.
At this moment, Xiao Feng was a conglomerate of evil thoughts, like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.
"Ding ding ding..."
Just as Xiao Feng felt his sanity was about to be overwhelmed by the endless evil thoughts, a clear and melodious sound of a zither suddenly rang out, allowing him to barely regain a sliver of rationality.
Xiao Feng instinctively jumped out of the bathtub and walked towards the direction of the zither music.
At the same time, the Little Fairy Doctor, dressed in a white long dress, was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard, plucking the zither strings with her slender fingers.
Under the moonlight, the Little Fairy Doctor seemed to be draped in a layer of gauze, dreamlike and ethereal, as if the fairy Chang'e had descended to the mortal world.
[That annoying guy has gone home, and Qing Lin has been dragged away by Zi Yan to search for spirit herbs. They won't be back for at least two days. I must seize this good opportunity to take down Ah Feng in one go!]
While playing the zither, the Little Fairy Doctor glanced at the flowers in the courtyard that she had tampered with.
To ensure success, she had specially added aphrodisiacs to those flowers, which could amplify desires.
Those aphrodisiacs were meticulously concocted by the Little Fairy Doctor. Even if Xiao Feng were a four-star Dou Ancestor, not just a four-star Dou Emperor, he would still turn into a berserker upon smelling the scent of those tampered flowers.
All he could do was charge, and charge again!
Soon, familiar footsteps came from outside the courtyard, causing the Little Fairy Doctor to reveal a smile like a little fox that had stolen a chicken.
However, what the Little Fairy Doctor didn't expect was that although Xiao Feng was attracted by her zither music, his condition was clearly abnormal—his eyes were bloodshot, his expression ferocious, as if he wanted to devour someone.
Xiao Feng's rationality was already on the verge of collapse. Upon smelling the scent of the tampered flowers, he completely lost control and pounced towards the Little Fairy Doctor.
[What is that little lunatic up to again? It's the middle of the night, can't he let people sleep?]
Awakened from her slumber, Queen Medusa, hearing the irritating noises, couldn't help but complain in her heart.
After taking the Spirit Fusion Pill, Queen Medusa could perfectly control the body of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, so she immediately prepared to distance herself from the center of the battlefield to avoid being accidentally injured.
But before Queen Medusa could distance herself, she caught a whiff of a refreshing floral scent, and her eyes instantly became dazed.
[(╯▽╰) So fragrant~~]
Queen Medusa unconsciously transformed back into her human form and, with her jade-like feet that seemed carved from the finest white jade, pounced towards Xiao Feng, who was deeply engrossed in his task.
The following fifty thousand words are omitted...
It wasn't until noon the next day that Xiao Feng was awakened by a piercing scream, only to be brutally beaten by Queen Medusa.
Discovering that all three of her lanes had been breached, Queen Medusa, in a fit of rage, beat Xiao Feng for over half an hour before finally leaving the Little Fairy Doctor's boudoir with unsteady steps, fuming.
"Pfft!"
Seeing Xiao Feng, who had been beaten black and blue by Queen Medusa, with his head swollen, the Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but burst into laughter.
With a pair of panda eyes, Xiao Feng glared at the Little Fairy Doctor and said, "You... you still have the nerve to laugh! If it weren't for you drugging me last night, I wouldn't have acted so recklessly!"
"You~ You got the advantage and still play the victim, as if you suffered a great loss."
The Little Fairy Doctor first extended her slender finger and coquettishly poked Xiao Feng's chest, then with a worried expression, she said, "Ah Feng, your condition last night was a bit off. Did something go wrong with your cultivation?"
Having been nourished by Xiao Feng, the Little Fairy Doctor now carried a hint of the charm unique to a mature woman.
"It's nothing! I just awakened a new ability last night, and I'm not quite used to it yet! But don't worry, I've already thought of a solution."
Having learned from last night's experience, Xiao Feng no longer planned to directly absorb the malevolent energy of the world to enhance his strength.
Although that malevolent energy could rapidly increase Xiao Feng's cultivation, the hidden dangers within it were too great.
Xiao Feng feared that if he continued to absorb it recklessly, even his personality would be twisted by the evil thoughts within the malevolent energy. Would he still be himself then?
Of course, Xiao Feng wouldn't waste this ability to absorb the world's malevolent energy. He planned to integrate all the absorbed malevolent energy into his shadow.
In fact, Xiao Feng had long wanted to use the power of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit to create something similar to the Shadow Realm and Shadow Army from "Jackie Chan Adventures."
However, Xiao Feng discovered that to create shadow creatures that could exist for a long time and possess the ability to learn autonomously, like the Shadow Ninjas, he needed to provide them with a massive amount of energy.
With just the Dou Qi within Xiao Feng's body, he could only maintain a few Dou Emperor-level shadow creatures at most.
Moreover, once Xiao Feng stopped supplying Dou Qi, those shadow creatures would dissipate, naturally preventing them from autonomously learning various skills like cooking and laundry.
Now that Xiao Feng had gained the ability to absorb the world's malevolent energy, the situation was completely different. He could use the inexhaustible malevolent energy as the energy source to maintain the Shadow Army.
Furthermore, in the world of "Jackie Chan Adventures," there was the concept of positive and negative energy, and the Shadow Army clearly belonged to the negative energy side, which had a similar effect to the shadow creatures formed from the world's malevolent energy.
"As long as you know what you're doing."
Seeing Xiao Feng's confident expression, the Little Fairy Doctor didn't say much more. She always had a blind trust in Xiao Feng.
