I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

"Alright, then. I’ll join you in this madness just this once!"

After speaking, Su Qingyu slowly levitated into the air. She leaned forward on her right foot, crossed her hands in front of her chest with her fingers held in an orchid-like gesture, and twisted at the waist, striking a pose that was alluring yet incredibly awkward.

This wasn’t the stance for some Martial Art or Skill. It was... the opening move of her "Shaking Flower Foot" dance.

That’s right. Su Qingyu had already struck her pose and was ready to dance.

Zou Feng met this with a slight smile, but his eyes instantly hardened with resolve. He crossed his hands, raising them high above his head with his fingers splayed open, mimicking a flower in full bloom.

He, too, was ready to dance.

But it would be far too awkward without any background music, so Zou Feng released Xiaolv from his Beast Taming Ring and had her strike up a tune with her rhythmic chirping.

It was worth noting that Xiaolv, having been by Zou Feng’s side for so long, had naturally heard him hum quite a few ditties from his past life.

So Zou Feng could actually give Xiaolv song requests.

And the song he chose was the incredibly catchy, cheesy anthem, "A Smile in the Martial World."

He had been humming this song ever since he learned the Shaking Flower Hand, and Xiaolv had long since picked it up.

Furthermore, since Xiaolv had manifested a head, she could now imitate some syllables quite convincingly, even if she still couldn’t speak.

This made her performance of the song sound surprisingly authentic.

Hearing the music, Su Qingyu, who had already steeled herself for an awkward public performance, felt the last traces of her embarrassment evaporate. Her opening pose became even more resolute.

The next moment, to boost morale and prevent the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect’s forces from collapsing prematurely, Zou Feng shouted, "Fellow disciples! Senior Sister Su and I will break the Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array! Everyone, hold the line!"

’Someone volunteered to break the Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array!?’

Though most still didn’t hold out much hope, it was at least a glimmer.

They had expected Zou Feng and Su Qingyu to charge the Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array. Instead, the two of them actually started... dancing on the spot!?

It wasn’t just the members of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect who were stunned; even the endlessly advancing Tribulation Cultivators had no idea what was going on.

They soon found out, however. Many of them began to sway involuntarily to the beat, starting to "rock" back and forth.

For Zou Feng, this was a Combined Skill performed with Su Qingyu. In the form of a dance-off, it amplified his Universal Salvation Burial Flower Domain in every aspect, making its power far greater than when he used it alone.

This intangible Spiritual Attack was directed entirely at the Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array, finally forcing the array-empowered Tribulation Cultivators to a halt.

They had no choice. If they didn’t stop and resist, they would all be compelled to start dancing.

"Hold steady! This is just an Evil Skill from a couple of Evil Cultivators! They can’t keep it up for long!"

"That’s right! All Celestial Soldiers, hear my command! If you can no longer resist the urge to dance, you may return to the Turquoise Pool and see the Queen Mother..."

The three leading Celestial Generals spoke out one after another, trying to steady their troops’ morale.

They were explicitly telling the weakest Celestial Soldiers that they could now choose to sacrifice themselves to empower the Array.

Sure enough, the moment they finished speaking, two Celestial Soldiers on the verge of breaking roared, formed a hand seal for a Technique, and self-destructed to fuel the Array.

The Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array was instantly and significantly empowered. The discomfort and urge to dance that the Celestial Soldiers and Generals inside had been feeling were greatly alleviated.

"Kill!"

"Slaughter these heretics!"

The Celestial Generals were reinvigorated and resumed controlling the Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array’s advance.

This time, however, their advance was not nearly as smooth as before.

Zou Feng and Su Qingyu’s Combined Skill, you see, wasn’t just a powerful Spiritual Attack against the enemy. For their allies, it acted as a "Battle Dance" that greatly boosted morale.

The disciples of the Immortal Sect had been dejected, resigned to the fact that their defensive line had been breached. They were all considering whether they should risk the crime of desertion and flee. But under the influence of the "Battle Dance," they were all suddenly supercharged, as if they’d been shot up with adrenaline.

They suddenly felt they were back in the fight. A ceaseless torrent of power from an unknown source surged into them, making them feel like they could go another eight hundred rounds.

This wasn’t merely a psychological effect. The poisonous gas filling the Universal Salvation Burial Flower Domain was being converted by Zou Feng into a potent elixir that provided numerous benefits to Cultivators.

His Cultivation of the Immortal Dao of External Pill Refining made Zou Feng particularly skilled at such conversions.

However, its essence was still poisonous gas. Even though it had been converted into a "beneficial Spiritual Qi," it would leave them feeling drained and hollowed out afterward.

But a few days of quiet recuperation would be all they needed to recover.

So, just when the Tribulation Cultivators thought they could resume their overwhelming advance, they were met with a frenzied, all-out assault from the other disciples of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect...

Zou Feng, however, was not concerned with the state of the battle.

In his eyes, there was only his dance partner, Su Qingyu. He wanted only to complete this dance perfectly and elevate their art.

Su Qingyu felt the same. The movements of her feet were like a hundred flowers blooming at once—dazzling and spectacular.

If an unknowing mortal were to see Su Qingyu now, they would probably think they were witnessing a thousand-legged Guanyin.

Zou Feng’s Flower Hand, of course, was even more masterful in every way.

With every flick of his wrist, a sacred Lotus would bloom into existence.

Once created, these Lotuses would all rise into the air. Then, shimmering faintly like sky lanterns, they would float toward the nearby Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array.

When the Lotuses reached the Heavenly Might Demon-Slaying Array, they didn’t cause any explosions, impacts, or other such reactions.

They simply vanished, as if merging into the Array itself.

Though the Lotuses appeared to cause no stir, in reality, every one of the Celestial Soldiers and Generals within the Array felt Lotuses constantly exploding inside their seas of consciousness.

Then, the urge to dance would grow ever more fervent.

More and more Celestial Soldiers were forced to sacrifice themselves to the Array, yet it still couldn’t stop some within from breaking down and starting to dance wildly.

Those Celestial Soldiers who lost control and started dancing felt as if they had been liberated. They danced with pure, unadulterated bliss, as if they had finally rediscovered their true selves. The pursuit of immortality and a place among the celestials suddenly seemed utterly tasteless.

This spectacle, in turn, would affect the other Celestial Soldiers around them.

Before long, the three Celestial Generals directing the Array looked at each other in dismay.

They had been certain that a Domain sustained by only two people couldn’t possibly last long.

So why, after so much time, were that man and woman still dancing as if tireless? In fact, they seemed to be getting more and more into it!

Maintaining a Domain wasn’t just a matter of stamina, after all, especially when it was clashing with another...

In fact, the Celestial Generals’ judgment was correct. The energy drain from such a clash of Domains was immense and difficult to calculate.

No matter how powerful Zou Feng was, he was ultimately only in the Dao Foundation Realm. He shouldn’t have been able to sustain a Domain clash of this magnitude.

But fortunately, he had just refined a Celestial General’s External Pill.

With this Pill as a supplement, it was like sacrificing a Celestial General—an effect not even remotely comparable to sacrificing mere Celestial Soldiers.

And because the Domain was being cast as a Combined Skill, Su Qingyu, being closest to Zou Feng, was also receiving all sorts of replenishing benefits.

That was why, even after dancing for so long, she didn’t feel particularly tired.

As for the Tribulation Cultivators of the Ninefold Celestial Court, once they reached the level of a Celestial General, they cherished their lives far too much. They wouldn’t resort to that "returning to the Turquoise Pool" nonsense at the drop of a hat.

Thus, even knowing the situation was growing more and more dire, the three Celestial Generals leading the Array never once considered sacrificing themselves.

But while Zou Feng and Su Qingyu were dancing their hearts out, Xiaolv was reaching her limit.

Her voice was already hoarse, and she was in danger of singing her throat raw at any moment.

She had no choice. To make the music loud enough, Xiaolv had exerted energy far beyond her current limits.

Her voice, tiny to begin with, simply couldn’t bear the strain.

But she forced herself to hold on just a little longer. Xiaolv could instinctively feel that Zou Feng and Su Qingyu’s dance was reaching its climax and was about to come to a perfect finale.

Xiaolv didn’t understand art, but her growing Spiritual Wisdom made her subconsciously unwilling to let this perfect finale be marred by any flaw!
