When other people enter the Deathtrap Forbidden Zone, it's a narrow escape. When Chu Feng goes in, it feels like he's back in his happy place!
That's because he's bound to the [Heaven-Defying Comprehension] buff. Watching venomous insects fight lets him comprehend the Myriad Gu True Scripture; seeing spirit plants wither lets him suddenly grasp the Withering and Flourishing Pill Dao. Even the muttering of the forbidden zone's powerful lingering souls is automatically translated in his ears as the Guide to Lying Flat and Ascending!
So, while everyone else trembles at the mention of the “Myriad Miasma Death Abyss,” Chu Feng settles into an oddly charming life of raising Gu:
“Little Red, Bone-Eroding Blood Ant, quit chewing on that bone and deliver the Thousand-Year Rotten-Heart Lotus from the toxic swamp next door!”
“Little Green, Jade-Phosphor Poison Toad, spit a little on the new Ninefold Netherworld Earthfire Scorpion to disinfect it. It's got a bit of a temper!”
“Little Black, Soul-Devouring Shadow Bee! How many times have I told you to turn invisible when you spy on the demon king next door taking a bath? If you get caught, we'll have to pay them off with spirit fruit again!”
While the immortal sects' prodigies are still teaming up to fight monsters on the outskirts of the forbidden zone, Chu Feng has already built a “bug daycare” in its core region. By raising Gu, refining pills, and leeching off the forbidden zone, his strength rockets upward. Until one day, one of his “pets” accidentally brings back the underwear of a sacred land's founding ancestor, mistaking it for a snack...
Chu Feng scratches his head. “Uh, if I say it was a misunderstanding, will you believe me?”
All the Gu Kings: “Hiss, hiss! (Master, we'll bring back more next time!)”
All the immortal sects: “???!!!” So who exactly is in charge of this forbidden zone?
