Chapter 62: Shadow Clone!

Chapter 62: Shadow Clone!

After Ling Feng left the mountain stream where he had killed Yan An, he didn't escape far away. Instead, he moved towards the southwest, gradually approaching that direction.

The more dangerous a place was, the safer it became.

Yan Jinghong had no idea that Yan An had already died. There was no need for him to panic.

Even if Yan Jinghong were to see him, he would only appear as an ordinary disciple of the Wenxian Sect, who had come to Luofeng Canyon for training.

With Yan Jinghong engaged in a fierce battle against those demons, it presented Ling Feng with an opportunity to take advantage of.

If he could locate the lair of that mutated red-tailed fox, the secrets it held would then belong to him.

Seeking wealth and nobility amidst danger!

Ling Feng asked Jiang Wanqing and the others to leave, both out of concern for their safety and because he didn't want to miss this opportunity.

The treasure that could transform ordinary demonic beasts into mutated demons was undoubtedly a treasure beyond his current imagination.

His speculation was indeed accurate. The Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl was a precious item Yan Jinghong had obtained at the risk of his life from a perilous secret realm.

When Ling Feng killed the red-tailed fox, it had only recently transformed into a demon. The tiger demon had left the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl for the red-tailed fox to enhance its demonic power.

However, the red-tailed fox went missing the next day. That's why the tiger demon mobilized all the demon underlings, launching a full-scale search for the whereabouts of the red-tailed fox.

Subsequently, they discovered the corpse of the red-tailed fox. Hence, they began attacking humans with the aim of reclaiming the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl.

This was also the reason why disciples of the Wenxian Sect kept releasing distress signals continuously.

The current situation was that Yan Jinghong was seeking the tiger demon to obtain the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl.

The tiger demon was seeking humans to reclaim the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl.

While Ling Feng, unaware of the truth, was also searching for the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl.

"It's getting closer!"

Ling Feng leaped onto a large tree, concealing himself within its dense canopy, and his gaze shifted towards the southwest.

There, over a dozen terrifying auras were engaged in a chaotic battle, with the most powerful among them numbering four in total.

"It's truly terrifying. Any one of them could be my nightmare."

Ling Feng's palms were slightly sweaty. From a distance, he saw a young man in a blue robe, wielding a sword alone, effortlessly navigating through the siege of the three demon marshals.

Moreover, with each sword strike, he would invariably claim the life of a demon.

This person, whether in swordsmanship or agility, had reached an unbelievable level.

Clearly, he was Yan Jinghong!

"Little Tiger, you've had the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl for half a year. Is this all the progress you've made?" Yan Jinghong swung his long sword. Blood splattered, and the sharp edge of the blade seemed even sharper.

As soon as Yan Jinghong made a move, it was overwhelming dominance.

Except for the three demon marshals, all the other demons had become souls under Yan Jinghong's sword.

"The Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl is not in my possession!" The tiger demon, realizing the situation was lost, could only speak the truth.

"Not in your possession?" Yan Jinghong sneered. "At a time like this, are you still pretending to be ignorant?"

"I really don't have it!" The tiger demon panicked. If it weren't for the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl, he wouldn't have exposed his whereabouts.

"Well, I'll kill you all and find it myself." Yan Jinghong sneered. "I'm in a good mood today, go ahead and tell me your last words."

"Spider-woman, Black Bear, take the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl and escape!"

Realizing that he couldn't offer a convincing explanation, the tiger demon let out a roar. He then bent down, reverting to his original form—a black tiger roughly the height of a person. Following this transformation, he morphed into a swift, black whirlwind, frantically racing away in the opposite direction.

The black bear couldn't quite wrap its head around the situation, wondering why the boss would say such things when the Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl clearly wasn't in its possession.

However, the Spider-Woman immediately grasped the situation, cursing the tiger demon for being unfaithful. It even managed to drag her into a mess when escaping.

"Number Three, split up and run!" The spider-woman's body shimmered with black light as she transformed back into her spider form. Her eight long legs scurried in all directions, quickly disappearing from sight.

Although the black bear couldn't grasp the situation, it roared and was about to flee. Unfortunately, the sword of Yan Jinghong had already swung down.

Swish!

A giant head soared into the air, a fountain of blood gushing from the severed neck. The black bear demon's head rolled on the ground for dozens of yards before its massive body collapsed heavily to the ground.

"You think you can escape if you split up?"

Yan Jinghong sneered, radiant energy swirling around him as he effortlessly split into an identical second clone. One pursued the spider-woman, while the other chased after the tiger demon, both moving like flashes of lightning.

"Hey, what about me?" Lin Yinyin panicked, hastily shouting towards one of the two figures.

"Go find Yan An and regroup with him first!"

In the distance, the voice of Yan Jinghong could be heard, carrying a hint of fanaticism and excitement. For him, nothing was more enjoyable than this hunting game.

"Clone...clone technique?" Several surviving elders from the Wenxian Sect, who had narrowly escaped, were dumbfounded. They couldn't believe that Yan Jinghong possessed such a monstrous ability.

"A group of ignorant fellows. He's just using the Shadow Clone Technique. There's nothing to be surprised about."

Lin Yinyin cast a disdainful glance at the several elders. A blue light flashed behind her, revealing a pair of treasure-grade wings. Similar to the Purple Thunder Wings, these were also a treasured artifact, exhibiting even higher quality than Yan An's Purple Thunder Wings.

This was a gift from Yan Jinghong to her, and only with this treasured artifact could she barely keep up with Yan Jinghong's speed.

In no time, Lin Yinyin's figure also vanished from the spot, leaving the remaining elders of the Wenxian Sect bewildered, exchanging glances with each other and wearing wry smiles.

So these are the disciples that come from a prominent family...
