Chapter 27: Collaboration!

Awooo...

Amidst the dense forest, low and enraged roars echoed, carried by the strong winds. In the midst of the howling gusts, over a dozen ferocious demonic wolves, each with razor-sharp claws, pounced from various directions. The sharp claws gleamed with an eerie cold light, as if intent on tearing apart everything in their path.

Within the pack of wolves, a figure moved with graceful steps, traversing the terrain like a fleeting wisp of light. Despite the ferocious assaults of the demonic wolves, their attacks couldn't touch even a corner of his garment.

On Ling Feng's face, a tranquil expression rested, unruffled by the surroundings, much like a light breeze brushing through the clouds.

It had already been the third day since Ling Feng entered the vast desolation of the mountain range. In these three days, he had encountered countless battles, becoming accustomed to the sensation of being besieged by demonic beasts.

The demonic wolves still fell within the category of second-tier demonic beasts. Dealing with a single one was not difficult, but facing a pack of them would make even a cultivator in the later stages of the Qi Formation hesitant to provoke them easily.

Ling Feng seamlessly blended the Cloud-Chasing Steps with the Flashing Steps, almost creating an entirely new footwork technique. In the midst of battling the wolf pack, he moved as if taking a leisurely stroll in a courtyard, wearing an expression of tranquility.

Clang!

With a flash of sword radiance, akin to a falling meteor with sparkling starlight, a single sword strike divided into three, unleashing three surges of sword qi. Three demonic wolves found themselves pierced through the heart by the starshatter sword qi, meeting an end that left no room for further demise.

Keen eyesight, agile footwork, and masterful swordsmanship!

The fusion of these three created a swordsman close to perfection!

"It's time to conclude the battle and venture deeper into the desolate mountains for further trials."

A gleam of brilliance flashed in Ling Feng's eyes. Amidst these three days of intense battles, his cultivation had once again undergone a breakthrough, reaching the level of the fifth stage of Qi Formation.

With no more reservations, Ling Feng's swordsmanship turned domineering and sharp. The Starshatter Sword Technique was a superior sword art of the Wenxian Sect, usually only practiced by the direct disciples of the peak leaders.

Lacking the necessary insight, one might not achieve much even after ten years of dedicated practice.

A tumult of sword qi surged forth, unleashing a ferocious astral wind that swept across all directions. Sword shadows filled the sky like a celestial river descending to the earth, their brilliance forming a radiant rainbow of sword light.

A flicker of fear shimmered in the blood-red pupils of the remaining demonic wolves. They wailed and whimpered, almost in unison, as if in the blink of an eye, every single one of them turned and fled with a sweep of their wolfish tails.

Wang Tong immediately said, "Although there's only one celestial fruit, both the fruit and the roots can be divided. As for the Cloud-Striped Tiger, every part of its body is valuable. I've always admired disciples of the Wenxian Sect and consider you a friend. We'll allocate the demonic core to you. How does that sound?"

"The demonic core of a peak second-tier demonic beast, huh?" Ling Feng nodded. "That's acceptable!"

After all, the celestial fruit was discovered by the other party first, and the five of them were the main fighting force. If they shared the demonic core with him, his trip wouldn't be in vain.

"Good, haha!" Wang Tong grinned, "Happy to work together!"

"Happy to work together." Ling Feng also smiled slightly, but in his heart, he thought, "You better stick to the agreement, or else you'll bear the consequences!"

There's no such thing as a free lunch; it's not possible for them to just give away the demonic core of a peak second-tier demonic beast just because he's a disciple of the Wenxian Sect.

Despite lacking trust in these individuals, Ling Feng was willing to take a gamble, recognizing that skill often accompanies audacity.

"Please follow me!" Wang Tong said, swiftly flying towards a mountain on the right.

...

Six figures swiftly traversed through the mountainous terrain, their steps crunching on dried branches and fallen leaves, emitting a subtle rustling sound. As the wind swept through, their presence seamlessly dissipated into the surrounding environment.

"Cloud-Striped Tiger is a peak second-tier demonic beast. Even with your group and me, it might not be easy to have a significant chance of killing it, right?" While flying through the air, Ling Feng couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.

"Rest assured, since we dare to target the celestial fruit, we're prepared."

The response came from a woman in the group named Zhu Xia. With a pleasing appearance exuding a hint of heroism in her eyebrows and eyes, she notably possessed an alluring figure.

With a nod, Ling Feng replied, "It's good that you're prepared."

"By the way, Brother Ling Feng, since we're going to cooperate, how about letting us understand your strength? It would help us integrate into the new team faster, don't you think?" Wang Tong suddenly smiled and said.

"That makes sense." Ling Feng nodded. "I specialize in swordsmanship and can handle about three to five demonic wolves on my own."

"Haha, disciples of the Wenxian Sect are indeed formidable!"

Wang Tong laughed and led the group forward for a while, finally arriving at the destination of this journey.
