in the edge

Chapter 593 Weakness is also strength
At the same time, in the cave of the Centipede Star Lord.

Du Chengfeng was still dealing with the gradually collapsing cave of the Centipede Star Lord. After all, the Centipede Star Lord was dead, and the cave was gradually unable to hold on - so before the cave completely collapsed, he had to transform it into a stronghold of his own.

This will be his permanent residence for some time to come, and it will also be convenient for him to infiltrate the Ten Thousand Stars Alliance and gain access to more methods targeting him.

The previous search for the Shadow Star Lord was just a small episode for Du Chengfeng. Although he had thought about killing him on the spot and taking back his body, after considering the possibility of being exposed, he temporarily shelved this idea - in many cases, living people are more useful than dead people. Just like now, he only needs to release some information in the identity of the Centipede Star Lord, which is enough to confuse the Shadow Star Lord.

“Chaos also brings opportunity.”

Thinking of this, Du Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh.

Previously, when he participated in that rally, he, disguised as the Centipede Star Lord, once told many powerful people that chaos often means opportunities, and this was not a lie for the sake of disguise - after seeing with his own eyes the enemy who was targeting him, Du Chengfeng had to admit that this Wenqu Star Lord, unexpectedly, had some abilities.

Just like this sentence, chaos can also bring opportunities, which is something Du Chengfeng had never thought of before.

He had even experienced similar things several times, but he had not been able to accurately summarize this understanding. Now, after listening to the story of Wenquxingjun, Du Chengfeng suddenly felt enlightened.

Just like now, although he has the need to retrieve those remains, he doesn't necessarily have to kill them one by one like before. That would be too tiring and the resistance he would encounter would only be greater.

On the contrary, now, he only needs to spread the chaos, and opportunities will appear in front of him.

What Du Chengfeng didn't expect was that the way this opportunity presented itself was a little different from what he understood.

"……what happened?"

Du Chengfeng, who was busy in the cave, suddenly stopped.

Just now, he suddenly felt his feet regain feeling.

This was an extremely wonderful experience. He clearly no longer had a human form but was just a dagger. He had even gradually adapted to the body of the dagger and could skillfully control the body of the Centipede Star Lord with external force like controlling a puppet - but just now, his dagger suddenly had two legs.

This also caused Du Chengfeng's control over his body to become confused for a time, and even the movements of the Centipede Star Lord became crooked.

"What exactly is going on?"

Du Chengfeng clearly felt as if he had grown two legs, but at the moment he had no legs. This strange feeling of dislocation made him not know how to move for a moment - only after he got used to it a little bit did he try to take a few steps.

The Centipede Star Lord's footsteps did not follow, and it was obvious that the feeling of growing two legs was not reflected on the controlled corpse.

"What's going on?"

Du Chengfeng was puzzled. The feeling of his feet was not reflected on the corpse of the Centipede Star Lord, so where was it reflected?

"Forget it, it's always a good thing."

After thinking for a moment, Du Chengfeng stopped thinking about it.

If chaos can bring opportunities, then good things may not necessarily bring good results. There is no point in being happy about such small things - just guide things in a direction that is beneficial to you, and as for the rest, just let nature take its course.

If he wants to deal with the God of Literature, he needs to be at least calmer than the other party and have more patience.

So, Du Chengfeng continued to work as a matter of course, and while working, he also familiarized himself with his activated feet - although he didn't understand what was going on, but since they were his own feet, it would never hurt to do a little rehabilitation.

But Du Chengfeng didn't know this. While he was stretching his legs, some subtle changes occurred in a cave in the distance.

That was the cave where Shadow Star Lord fell, but at this moment, the Shadow Star Lord, who had once met Du Chengfeng, had turned into a pair of boots along with the broken body in his control - and not long ago, this pair of boots was worn on the feet of a powerful man, who kicked out with his legs in a series of kicks, which was a very exciting fight.

"No matter how weak it is, it is still a demon soldier after all."

Although these powerful people already knew that because of the Shadow Star Lord, the newly created magic soldiers did not have any strong killing effect, but no matter how bad the magic soldiers were, they were still magic soldiers after all. What's more, although the killing effect of these magic soldiers was not strong, their life-saving effect was first-class, and they could even be said to be quite practical weapons.

With such weapons before their eyes, how could they not be eager for them?
In addition, the powerful man who was the leader among them had already mastered the outrageous weapon called the Devil's Tongue, and even used this strange magic weapon to kill the Shadow Star Lord in front of them. This made the other powerful men think that magic weapons were good things - so after some disputes, one of the powerful men finally got the pair of boots.

After this powerful man put on the boots and began to try to attack with them, the other powerful men suddenly discovered that these boots were not as useless as they had imagined.

First use the boots' special ability to hide your body and avoid being discovered, then wait for an opportunity to use your leg skills to kill the opponent with one blow. From this perspective, these boots seem to be really useful.

Especially when they saw that mighty man performing a series of leg techniques and kicking with his combat boots so vigorously, the other mighty men became even more jealous.

Why didn’t they fight for such a good thing?

"That's enough! You've almost got that!"

Seeing that the powerful man who got the combat boots was still performing beautiful consecutive kicks, the other powerful men finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Just show off for a while! Why are you still kicking me?"

"I'm stopping now! I'm stopping now!"

Although the powerful man who got the combat boots said this, he still didn't stop kicking.

Seeing this action, the powerful leader began to feel dissatisfied. The steel fork in his hand glowed coldly, as if he was ready to fight if there was any disagreement.

But even facing the steel fork transformed from the tongue of the devil, the powerful man who got the combat boots still had no intention of stopping.

“It’s not me…it’s not me!”

Seeing that a group of powerful men had gradually begun to gather around, the powerful man who got the combat boots almost looked like he was about to cry.

"It's really not me... It's not me moving at all! I can't stop at all!"

"you……"

As soon as these words were spoken, several powerful men were stunned where they were.

If just now they were all still emotional and did not understand what was going on, then now, after being reminded by this sentence, they have discovered the problem - the powerful man who got the combat boots was not kicking so much as trying to twist his body to stop his legs from moving.

But that's where the problem lies. Although his legs were clearly trying to stop the movement, this powerful man's legs seemed to be completely out of control and were still kicking around in the air.

It was as if these feet no longer belonged to this powerful person.

It became someone else's thing.

"This……"

Seeing this scene, many powerful people immediately thought of a possibility.

Yes. If these feet have become someone else's...

So who could this other person be?
"Quick! Cut off his legs!"

The powerful leader was the first to react.

"It will be too late!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other powerful men immediately took action. They had also realized the problem. The rays of light in their hands went straight to the pair of legs and feet, without any mercy, they were ready to cut off the legs on the spot!

But at this moment, the pair of legs in combat boots suddenly fell to the ground.

The boot-clad legs landed on the ground, and then with a few dodges, he completely avoided the attack that should have hit him.

This is the unique skill of the Shadow Star Lord, but now it is being used by this pair of boots.

"This beast..."

The mighty man holding the Devil's Tongue quickly struck the steel fork again. Even the Shadow Star Lord was defeated by this indiscriminate shock attack - but this time, the invincible attack seemed to suddenly lose its effect.

In other words, although it has an effect, it does not work where it should.

The powerful man wearing the combat boots had indeed been shocked to the point of bleeding from all seven orifices, but the combat boots themselves were not affected at all. They were still kicking and dancing, and even took the initiative to walk towards the direction of the group of powerful men.

A pair of combat boots, dragging a person along.

This strange scene was so bizarre that even a powerful person couldn't help but feel terrified.

"Kill him...kill him quickly!"

At this moment, the powerful people present have completely realized that something is wrong. The powerful person who has obtained the combat boots has clearly been completely controlled by these boots!
And now, that pair of boots made from the remains of the extraterritorial demon, that pair of boots made from the corpse of Shadow Star Lord... No, that is Shadow Star Lord, the Shadow Star Lord who was forced to death by them!
The Shadow Star Lord, who was forced to death by them, came to kill them in the form of a demon soldier.

"quick……"

Just as a powerful man was about to shout something about escaping, his head exploded into a ball of bloody mist under his boots.

What followed was a bloody storm.

After a moment of fierce battle, the mighty man who had grabbed the combat boots was already covered with wounds. Looking at the magic weapon's steel fork nailed on his neck, it was unlikely that this mighty man would survive.

But the pair of combat boots were still moving, still dragging the corpse, with brisk steps and skillful leg techniques.

Only after the corpse was crushed into a pulp and all the bones were crushed into powder did the pair of boots drag the broken corpse away.

And this is also the most original function of this pair of boots.

Go to a place where you won't be attacked, go to a place where no one can find you.

So, where is the ideal place?

"……what?"

Du Chengfeng, who was cleaning the cave, suddenly discovered that something strange had entered the cave of the Centipede Star Lord.

At present, the cave of the Centipede Star Lord has been sealed by Du Chengfeng. Even if a powerful person comes to visit, he must get Du Chengfeng's consent before entering. The sudden appearance of a strange existence naturally makes Du Chengfeng alert.

"Could it be that some powerful being is coming to attack us?"

Du Chengfeng instinctively thought of the previous incident with Zheng Qixing, or rather the reckoning of the Star Lord of Death against the Star Lord of Greed. That was the time when the Star Lord of Greed was attacked even though he stayed in his own cave, a place that seemed absolutely safe.

So this time, I'm afraid...

"Ok?"

Looking at the figure walking towards him, or rather, looking at the corpse walking towards him, Du Chengfeng was speechless for a long time.

He didn't recognize the corpse, but the pair of combat boots gave him a familiar feeling - even though he had never seen this pair of combat boots before, he still had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this thing.

It's like, it's like...

It was as if these combat boots were a part of his body.

"This……"

Du Chengfeng tried to lift his feet.

In front of him, the right foot in the pair of combat boots was also lifted up.

Du Chengfeng tried to lift his left foot again, and then kicked it a few times randomly, and the combat boots in front of him also made the same movement.

These are his feet.

It was the pair of feet that had just appeared in his perception.

"This... actually came back by itself?"

Du Chengfeng was dumbfounded for a moment. You know, it was not just his feet that came back - there was a dagger-like steel fork nailed to the neck of the corpse, which was also a part of his body.

The only problem is that this piece of what was supposed to be his tongue had been forked by someone.

Originally, Du Chengfeng thought that in order to collect his remaining body, he would have to go through some brutal battle, just like the battle he had with thousands of powerful men before. At least it would take a scene like that to collect his remaining body.

But now, after seeing his feet and tongue running back, Du Chengfeng suddenly realized.

There is no need for any major battle. These things originally belonged to him. Now that his consciousness has recovered, these remains that originally belonged to him will naturally return to him.

"In other words, the one who should be anxious now is not me."

After putting the pair of boots on the body of the Centipede Star God and stabbing the short steel fork into the chest and abdomen of the Centipede Star God's body, Du Chengfeng now has regained the ability to speak and walk.

Yes, he was only thinking about fighting and overlooked the most important thing.

That's the one who is really anxious, maybe it wasn't him from the beginning.
