Chapter 2: I Became Duan Yifeng
He had already forgotten how far he had run in one breath, anyway Chen Chao was now completely out of energy and had to stop, but fortunately there was a lake in front of him.
"I'm so thirsty! This lake water looks clean, it should be drinkable."
Chen Chao was really thirsty, and as soon as he lay down, he prepared to go get some water to drink.
"Oh no, how did someone get in there?"
Chen Chao was so scared that he quickly got up, because he found out that there was actually someone in the lake, and it seemed to be a super handsome guy.
After a while, seeing that there was still no movement, Chen Chao carefully walked forward, stretched out his head to take a closer look at the lake, and then picked his nose with his hand.
Seeing the handsome guy in the lake making the same movements, Chen Chao finally realized that the handsome guy was himself, his own reflection.
"You damn bastard, you scared me half to death, for Pete's sake..."
Chen Chao cursed for a moment, then suddenly realized that person was himself. Only then did he discover that he had inadvertently become a second-rate B for once.
"It seems I'm still quite lucky, crossing over to become a super handsome big brother." Chen Chao quickly calmed down, he was already very handsome before, now even more so.
Used to be a modern sunny boy with a handsome appearance, now has added some classical beauty, eyes have become more profound, hair has also changed into long black hair.
"Look at me, how captivating my eyes are, how electrifying my gaze is, this head of raven-black hair that flows with the wind... Ah, if I were a woman, I'd fall in love with myself."
Chen Chao kept complimenting himself on every handsome spot in front of the lake, and couldn't stop smiling and striking various cool poses.
He was already very handsome before, but now he's so stunningly good-looking that it's unbelievable, exciting Chen Chao for over half an hour before stopping.
"Hmm, what was I just about to do?" Chen Chao thought for a while before remembering that he had been about to get a drink of water.
He had been boasting for so long and was even more thirsty, so he simply lay down and started drinking gurglingly. He drank a lot of water before sitting up and belching, this guy was actually full.
"Alright, let me think for a moment. What's going on with me right now? First of all, I'm definitely transmigrated, and it was this ring that brought me here." Duan Yifeng sorted out his thoughts.
"If it's as you said, then is this ring a Space Ring? Will there be a Spirit of the Ring inside that can help me?" Chen Chao began to search for things that could help him.
The ring was the only legacy left to him by Old Lady Sun before her death. There were two rings, one on his hand and the other on Luoxia's hand, making a perfect pair.
Chen Chao's ring is very special, like an elliptical gemstone, with white and black as the base color, each accounting for half of it, then a layer on top seems to be empty, seven thin lines are respectively red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple, looking just like a rainbow.
Seven lines look like they are separate yet intertwined, looking perfect.
The outer ring is surrounded by a black dragon and a white dragon, looking very majestic, as if alive, the scales on its body are also perfect, without any flaws.
The ring of the Luoxia language has a blue base color, with a beautiful red rose inside, and two phoenixes like flames on either side of the rose, as if they are about to fly out of the ring.
The ring looks like an eye, slender and full of charm, with seven short and thin rainbow stripes on both sides.
The lines are on the outer ring, very thin and short, not as long as Chen Chao's rainbow lines. It looks like two hands holding a rose in the middle, making it a perfect match for a couple's ring.
"Since the ring is so beautiful and ancient, it's unreasonable that there wouldn't be a spirit or something inside. I think the people who wear it are all very lucky, so heaven won't disappoint me, right?"
Duan Yifeng's mind kept on fantasizing, perhaps people like to fantasize when they are helpless.
"Hello, hello, is anyone inside? Is there a spirit?"
Chen Chao shouted for half a day, but there was no response at all.
"Ah, looks like I'm not that lucky after all. Hmm, it seems like there's something in my head that feels like a memory... is this body's memory? Maybe it can be of some help to me?"
After a while, Chen Chao finally fully integrated these memories into himself, hoping to get help from them. After all, this was the only lifesaving straw now. However, it did not disappoint him. It turned out that "he" was the second young master of the Duan family, one of the four major families in Luo Kecun township.
The four major families in Luo Ke Town have all established their own forces, and the Duan family has also established its own sect called Kuang Jian Mountain Villa. The corpses with a small sword emblem on their clothes were the family guards sent by his old man to protect him before he set out, while those with scorpion emblems are people from the Du Xie Men.
Kuang Jian Manor and Du Xie Gate have always been opposing forces, but they are secretly fighting each other. On the surface, they still pretend to be harmonious. As for himself, he has not been diligent in his cultivation every day. Now that he is 16 years old, he has barely reached the level of a high-level warrior. Every day, he only knows how to study some spiritual herbs and treasures, anyway, he is interested in miscellaneous things, but has no interest in cultivating at all.
This time, he was originally prepared to go out and search for treasure in the Dark Night Forest. His father was afraid that something would happen to him, so he sent some guards to protect him. Unexpectedly, they were surrounded and killed by the Venomous Scorpion Gate as soon as they entered the Dark Night Forest.
The Scorpion Gate thought that this time they had killed them all, thinking that the corpses would soon be eaten by the demon beasts, and even if the Crazy Sword Villa found out, there was no evidence to start a war. Anyway, just deny it and say nothing happened.
But just as Second Young Master Duan Yifeng had just stopped breathing, his body was directly occupied by Chen Chao's descending soul.
"It seems that from now on, I'll be called Duan Yifeng. I'm the second young master of the Duan family, and at just 16 years old, I already have a height of 1.8 meters. Moreover, I'm even more handsome than before! Hmm, with a handsome older brother and a pretty younger sister, my height should still be able to grow, haha, looks like I've struck it rich!"
Duan Yifeng is now very happy, nothing like the former Duan Yifeng who didn't love to speak and only knew how to study this and that, but had no achievements.
"Haha, since you have such a good status and look so handsome, I'll go to your home first and take care of your family. When I get the chance later, I'll help you take revenge, as a thank you for your looks."
Chen Chao spoke with great righteousness, as if he was a person who knew how to repay kindness. In fact, he had no choice. From Duan Yifeng's memories, he knew that in this world, the strong were always right, and laws and regulations meant nothing to those in power. Those top-level strongmen could destroy a country with just a flick of their wrist, but they wouldn't even bother, because they were too proud. They pursued only one thing: becoming stronger.
Duan Yi Feng's current cultivation as a senior warrior is actually the lowest in the entire Lingyun Continent. As long as someone has a method to absorb and refine their body with Lingyun Qi, they can be considered a warrior. Even his younger sister Duan Yi Yun, who is two years younger than him at 14 years old, has broken through to become a low-level Lingyun Warrior.
Only when reaching the Lingyun stage can one release the Lingyun energy, attacking and defending on the surface of the body. This is a huge gap in combat power compared to martial artists. Even if ten or more high-level martial artists were to gang up on a low-level Lingyun master, they would still be no match for him. In other words, even ten or more Duan Yifengs couldn't defeat one Duan Yiyun.
The warrior only absorbed the Lingyun gas to temper his body, making his body more agile, stronger and faster, which is roughly the same as a martial arts master in the secular world. The difference is a class, not a small rank.
Duan Yifeng's older brother, Duan Yunfei, had reached the cultivation of a high-level Lingyun Master. At just eighteen years old, he was already at this level and even had the qualifications to challenge a Lingyun Grandmaster. It seemed that his innate talent wasn't bad either.
Duan Yifeng's talent was actually not bad, and it was about the same as his brother and sister. He was even much better than them, but he was lazy and didn't cultivate at all, which was what his father Duan Lingtian worried about the most.
So "Duan Yifeng" said he wanted to go back and avenge Duan Yifeng, but in fact he just had nowhere to go. If there was a low-level Lingyun warrior beauty who took a fancy to his handsome self and tried to take liberties with him, he couldn't even resist.
Going back would at least guarantee his life safety, after all, in that remote small town he had the Crazy Sword Villa protecting him, and no one dared to casually move against him.
Duan Yifeng bowed slightly with his right hand on his chest, facing the direction he had just run from, paying respects to those family guards who had died protecting him. This team of ten was at least low-level Lingyun warriors, and some were mid-level Lingyun warriors, while their captain was a high-level Lingyun warrior.
It never occurred to me that the Scorpion Gate this time seemed to have come prepared, and among the people sent to kill Duan Yifeng, in addition to Ling Yunshi, there were two low-level Lingyun masters. It seems they are also afraid of being exposed and decided to make a clean sweep.
These warriors all died protecting him and faced strong enemies, shielding him to the end and killing several people from the Poisonous Scorpion Sect before their own deaths.
The loyalty of the deceased warriors to Kuang Jian Mountain Villa made Duan Yi Feng feel awe, they were also the backbone of the villa, and they did not abandon him alone and escape just because Duan Yi Feng was an ignorant young master.
"This guy seems to have been killed while searching for treasure in the Dark Night Forest. This is just the outskirts of the Dark Night Forest, and their cultivation level can't even get them inside, nor do they dare to venture deeper, because there are powerful demonic beasts present. In the core area, who knows if there aren't even more powerful demonic beasts."
Duan Yifeng took out a tattered treasure map, looked at it carefully: "Not far from here, and on the outskirts of the forest, I'll go take a look, let you die with your eyes open."
Duan Yifeng followed the direction of the map and walked westward. After an hour, a cave appeared in front of him.
