Chapter 76

Lin Feng understood what Old Man Tianji meant.The so-called escape was to give up going to the Jiuyan Sect and directly flee back to the Lower Domain.

He had no objections to this.

After all, that Jiuyan Sect was really too strange, producing three unreasonable lunatics. And all of them were trying to kill him in various ways!

He had finally met a normal disciple of the Jiuyan Sect, yet he was deceived!

But to leave just like this, Lin Feng was reluctant.

The humiliation he had experienced in the past few days was more than his entire lifetime combined.

If he really fled with his tail between his legs, how could he still consider himself the Son of Destiny?

“Old Man Tianji, possess my body, then give this lunatic a beating! Then we’ll run!” Lin Feng decided.

“Good!”

Old Man Tianji was straightforward. “My soul power is limited. I don’t know how long it can last, so let’s make it quick!”

Hearing this, Lin Feng nodded and closed his eyes.

“Whoosh!”

A cold wind suddenly arose, sweeping wildly around.

The chilly aura grew stronger and gradually covered his entire body. When he opened his eyes again, they were filled with endless vicissitudes and depth.

Controlling Lin Feng’s body, Old Man Tianji’s gaze turned to Jiang Lianyue.

“Possesion?” Jiang Lianyue sneered.

Old Man Tianji was suddenly shocked!

His eyes widened!

Such a shocked expression instantly shattered his image of a sage!

In fact, he had always had a feeling that his existence had been exposed.

Using Zijun Blood Soil, the purple-robed elder who seemed to be on guard against him and Lin Mubai showed no surprise at Lin Feng’s increase in combat power, which was also unreasonable.

Still, being directly exposed by Jiang Lianyue greatly shocked Old Man Tianji.

“Girl, how did you learn of my existence?” Old Man Tianji asked with a dark face.

“Guess?” Jiang Lianyue sneered.

Hearing this, Old Man Tianji frowned and was about to make a move when he noticed something unusual.

The temperature of the surrounding air was dropping rapidly.

In an instant, it was like the cold of midwinter, with cold air spreading for dozens of zhang.

“Buzz——”

The sound of swords humming suddenly arose.

At this moment, Jiang Lianyue’s ice sword seemed to have its own consciousness, vibrating rapidly while continuously absorbing the cold air from the surroundings.

Then, clusters of blue ice flowers gradually bloomed on the sword’s body, falling to the ground on their own.

The ice flowers merged at her feet, forming a larger giant ice flower, lifting her from the ground and eventually suspending her in mid-air.

At the same time, there was pressure as if an empress had descended, making all things bow down and burst forth from her body!

It seemed to crush everything!

“…”

Old Man Tianji’s face turned black immediately.

He instantly understood that Jiang Lianyue was intending to detonate her imperial essence!

He was very clear that at this moment, his soul power was insufficient, only enough for simple combat, and absolutely unable to withstand the imperial essence.

He thought Jiang Lianyue was bluffing. After all, the consequence of detonating imperial essence was becoming a cripple.

But as the pressure grew stronger, he also had to make a choice.

“Run! She’s willing to detonate her imperial essence. This woman is not just any kind of crazy.” Lin Feng had given up.

Old Man Tianji thought the same.

After taking a glance at Jiang Lianyue, he controlled Lin Feng’s body and turned into a streak of light to flee.

Not long after he left, the heavy pressure also slowly dissipated.

Jiang Lianyue floated down from the air, her cold eyes following the direction Lin Feng had fled.

“That direction is the Hengduan Mountain Range. Does Lin Feng want to hide in the Hengduan Mountain Range, or does he want to return to the Lower Domain?” she speculated.

She leaned towards the latter.

After all, she felt that Old Man Tianji’s soul power was weak and probably couldn’t last long, and Lin Feng had been pierced by her, so under such circumstances, returning to the Lower Domain to heal was undoubtedly the best choice.

“If Senior Brother knows that I’ve driven Lin Feng back to the Lower Domain, he will definitely be very happy.” She smiled sweetly.

……

In the Hengduan Mountain Range, a girl and a tiger were running in a hurry.

Behind them, a group of large demons with wide-open bloody mouths as if they had gone mad were following them.

“Ding, ding.”

The clear and pleasant sound of bells rang out from the green bells that Qingning was shaking on her wrist.

The sound of the bells spread like waves.

As the sound entered their ears, these large demons instantly became dazed.

They stood still in a daze, and by the time they came to their senses, Qingning and Xiaobai had already disappeared.

After escaping the demons, Qingning rode on Xiaobai, preparing to head to Lingshan Town to meet up with Jiang Chen.

She looked a bit disheveled, but looking at the strangely shaped spiritual fruit in her hand, which occasionally pulsed like a heart and emitted dazzling green light, she couldn’t help but smile.

“Qingning, what is this?” Xiaobai wondered.

“Seventh-Grade Enlightenment Fruit!” Qingning replied.

“Seventh-grade? And it’s an Enlightenment Fruit?” Xiaobai was shocked.

The effect of a Seventh-Grade Enlightenment Fruit was comparable to an Eighth-Grade Dao Enlightenment Leaf.

Both were harvested from the Enlightenment Tree and could change a cultivator’s talent and improve their comprehension.

Such high-level heavenly treasures had not appeared in the Central Domain for a thousand years.

After re-entering the Hengduan Mountain Range, Qingning ventured alone into the depths of the mountain range while Xiaobai stayed outside to provide support.

Xiaobai knew that Qingning must have provoked the Demon King, which was why she was being chased by so many powerful demons, but he had not expected that it was all for the Enlightenment Fruit!

“I’ve lived in the Hengduan Mountain Range for years and didn’t even know about the existence of the Enlightenment Tree. How did you find out about it, Qingning?” Xiaobai wondered.

Hearing this, Qingning’s smile faded, and her eyes dimmed.

She remembered everything from the nine cycles of reincarnation vividly, and in each life, her talents had been transformed by the seventh-grade Enlightenment Fruit.

Naturally, she knew where to find it and how to obtain it.

She wanted to stay by Jiang Chen’s side, hoping one day to truly bury Lin Feng alive.

But all of this required strength.

That’s why she had re-entered the Hengduan Mountain Range to obtain the seventh-grade Enlightenment Fruit ahead of time before returning to the Jiuyan Sect.

“Qingning, hide quickly. There’s a cultivator from the upper four realms!” Xiaobai suddenly shouted.

Qingning was startled and quickly looked up. Indeed, she saw a dark figure wrapped in gloomy air gliding through the sky.

“Xiaobai, don’t you think that figure looks familiar?” Qingning frowned. Xiaobai hadn’t noticed at first, but upon hearing this, it took a closer look!

His tiger eyes narrowed as he scrutinized the approaching figure.

As the shadow drew nearer, Xiaobai’s eyes suddenly widened in shock and exclaimed,

“Qingning, it’s Lin Feng! He must be here to eat me!”

This wasn’t the first time Xiaobai had seen Lin Feng walking on air.

The last time Lin Feng fled Lingshan Town, he had done the same.

Qingning was also certain that the person was Lin Feng.

Seeing that Lin Feng showed no signs of landing in the Hengduan Mountain Range, she instantly understood something.

“Xiaobai, quick! Use your black lightning to strike Lin Feng down!” Qingning pointed to the sky.

“Huh?” Xiaobai was a bit confused.

“Stop hesitating, we can’t miss this opportunity!”

“Alright, but what if he comes down to eat me?”

“Ah, you silly tiger! I was just lyi… I mean, I assure you he won’t be able to eat you!”

“…Oh.”

After nodding blankly, Xiaobai immediately activated his ancient bloodline, his body growing larger as black lightning flickered around him.

In just a moment, it had transformed into a primordial beast.

Staring intently at Lin Feng in the sky, Xiaobai opened his mouth wide, inhaled deeply, and then let out a thunderous roar.

“Roar!”

The roar was deafening, and the moment the sound emerged, a solid bolt of black lightning shot out from his mouth and immediately struck Lin Feng.

“Boom!”

The black lightning exploded, and the sky was suddenly filled with turbulent winds and clouds.

The woman and the tiger watched with wide eyes.

They saw the soul force around Lin Feng dissipate, and then, emitting black smoke, he fell from the sky and landed right in front of them.

“Too unreasonable, resorting to a sneak attack…”

After uttering these words, Lin Feng passed out.

Xiaobai finally understood why Qingning had said Lin Feng wouldn’t be able to eat it.

Because at this moment, Lin Feng was a complete mess, his clothes thoroughly soaked in blood, with terrifying wounds on his left shoulder and abdomen revealing his bones.

In such a sorry state, he couldn’t possibly eat anything!

Moreover, the scent of charred flesh wafting from his burnt skin made Xiaobai involuntarily swallow its saliva!

“Hiss! Which powerful being could have beaten the Son of Destiny to such a state?”

Xiaobai took a cold breath as he shook his head.

He then asked Qingning, “What do we do now?”

Crouching down, Qingning poked at the wound on Lin Feng’s abdomen and said with a look of pity.

“This is too tragic, let’s bury him.”

“Okay.”

Xiaobai had no objections and spat out a spirit ring from its mouth. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ɴøᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

“I’ve packed all the Zijun Blood Soil inside, enough to bury more than a dozen people!”

“Xiaobai, you’re so smart!”

“But you just called me a silly tiger…”

“Did I? You must have heard wrong.”

“…”
