Chapter 62 Five-Colors City, Shale Catfish Monster

“Sect Master Uncle, all these three spells are unfamiliar to us. Do we need to train each of them to a Beginner level before you will personally instruct us?” Li Jiaojiao asked.

“We are pressed for time on this occasion, so no need,” Ye Feng waved a hand, “The Demon Slaying Conference has officially begun, and we must save time.”

Having said that, Ye Feng personally began to instruct them.

In the time that followed, most disciples were cultivating the three spells, “Mystic Shell Shield”, “Earth Escape”, and “Vitality Bullet”.

Taking advantage of breaks in their cultivation, Ye Feng also gave pointers to Jia Yulan, helping her to raise her “Falling Blooms in Profusion” from Major Achievement Peak to Perfection.

Then, Ye Feng instructed Xia He and Qiu Ju, helping them to achieve Minor Achievement with the First Grade Spell “Binding Spirit Rope”.

The remaining disciples, besides the mandatory training in “Earth Escape” and “Vitality Bullet”, also chose one or two auxiliary spells to cultivate.

In the blink of an eye, a night had passed.

The disciples of the Misty Sect had at least cultivated “Earth Escape” and “Vitality Bullet” to the level of Minor Achievement, greatly enhancing their strength.

The next morning.

After breakfast, everyone gathered in front of the Misty Sect.

Ye Feng raised his arm and said,

“Brother Flathead stays home, everyone else, follow me.”

Hearing that he had to stay behind, Brother Flathead looked unhappy.

“Out of the entire Misty Sect, you are the strongest next to me, so you must stay home. This is a heavy responsibility. Do it well, and later I will take you to fight!” Ye Feng stood on the grass with a sly smile, coaxing.

The simple-minded Brother Flathead took it seriously, promptly standing up and patting his chest with his paws as if to say: Good, make sure to call me when it’s time to fight!

“Let’s go.”

At Ye Feng’s command, he jumped onto the back of the Iron Claw Dragon Eagle.

Shi Lei activated a Lower Grade Spiritual Artifact, the Mysterious Turtle Shield, causing it to expand to two meters in length and width. The Iron Claw Dragon Eagle grabbed two sides of it with its sharp claws, leaving just enough room in the middle for Shi Lei, Huo Yunjie, Long Tianxing, and Ouyang Feng to sit on.

Mo Ying rode the Breeze-riding Sword with Li Jiaojiao, who was holding the Little White Fox, as well as Jia Yulan, Xia He, Qiu Ju, and Ouyang Yu following behind.

The eleven-person group flew at a speed of fifteen meters per second leaving the summit of Misty Peak, heading towards Five-Colors City in the southeast direction.

Five-Colors City is located fifty miles southeast of Whitefloat City, comparable in size to Beacon Fire City. It’s only a bit over thirty miles from Misty Peak and can be reached in less than two quarters of an hour.

Perched nearly a kilometer above ground, the disciples found the view expansive and felt exhilarated.

“We can finally go out and slay demons again!” Long Tianxing clenched his fists in excitement.

“Hey, look, the people from Lin Village seem to be relocating to the base of Misty Peak,” Jia Yulan pointed to the ground and said to everyone.

“It seems so!”

Ye Feng looked down and noticed that in just a few days, the villagers of Lin Village indeed had moved and resettled near the river a few hundred meters from the base of Misty Peak.

Ye Feng wasn’t too concerned about that matter.

The group maintained their speed and soon arrived at the outskirts of Five-Colors City, landing on the ground.

“Sect Leader, why have we come to Five-Colors City?” Jia Yulan asked, puzzled.

Ye Feng dismounted from the back of the Iron Claw Dragon Eagle and explained,

“Five-Colors City is a small city with a population of over a hundred thousand. To its southwest lies the hundreds of miles long Nanlu Mountain Range, and to the northeast is the Fuyun Gloomy Forest spanning over a hundred miles. This place is rich in resources, with several Spirit Mines currently being excavated, but it is also home to many Demonic Beasts. Naturally, it’s an excellent place for slaying demons.”

Long Tianxing realized, “So that’s why!”

“Let’s go, let’s take a look inside the city,” Ye Feng took out the Sect Leader’s Seal, held it in his hand, and led the way.

Passersby in Five-Colors City saw the Sect Leader’s Seal and couldn’t help but show respect.

“A willow leaf-shaped insignia… Lower Rank Sect?”

“Don’t be silly, have you ever seen a lower rank sect that has several Qi Refinement seventh or eighth level cultivators? They must have forgotten to upgrade to a middle rank sect.”

For most people, let alone a high ranked sect, even the weakest lower rank sect is not something they can afford to provoke.

“Look at these people, the men are as handsome as jade, the women unparalleled in beauty, and they even have flying mounts behind them—truly worthy of being sect disciples!”

“Stop brown-nosing, and get moving on the bricks.”

The passersby pointed and commented on Ye Feng and his companions.

“Cough cough, everyone listen to me!”

Ye Feng walked into the center of the city, cleared his throat, “I am the Sect Leader of the Misty Sect, leading my sect’s disciples to slay demons. Does anyone know where nearby there might be monsters causing trouble?”

After speaking, Ye Feng took out one hundred copper coins and shook them in the air, attracting the excited gazes of the crowd.

“I know, there is an ancient well to the south of the city, and every night it emits woeful cries. Many people have gone down it and never returned, no one knows what kind of monster is hiding at the bottom of it.”

“Yes, yes, it’s so scary!”

After getting the information, Ye Feng left the one hundred copper coins with those people and led his disciples to the south of the city with great urgency.

This place was an abandoned mansion that covered more than ten acres and had been turned into an orchard.

The ancient well was in the center of the orchard.

Jia Yulan looked around at the desolation and commented, “Where are there any monsters here?”

Long Tianxing activated his Blue Spirit Eyes and discovered that many demonic auras were rising from the well, exclaiming in surprise, “The aura inside is very strong, I estimate that at least a demon of the middle rank Demon Soldier Level is hiding in there.”

“You stay here, I will go down with Tian Xing and Yun Jie.”

Ye Feng approached the edge of the ancient well, saw that the bottom was long dried up, and was the first to jump in.

Long Tianxing and Huo Yunjie quickly performed the “Iron Shield Technique” and followed by jumping down.

The bottom of the ancient well was vast, with a dry tunnel high enough for a person on the side leading to other places, where from a distance, many skeletons could be seen in the cave.

“This monster is harmful, we can’t let it get away,” Ye Feng ventured into the tunnel.

“Roar!”

Just at that moment, a roar came from the tunnel, rapidly transforming into a mouth made of hard rock, snapping shut on Ye Feng at lightning speed.

“Sect Leader, be careful!”

Long Tianxing and Huo Yunjie immediately called out a warning.

Boom!

Ye Feng punched and shattered the rock mouth, grabbing a piece of rock, pushing off the ground with his legs, and pulling a massive figure out of the well, tossing it casually onto the ground with a thunderous boom.

“What kind of monster is this?”

Huo Yunjie and Long Tianxing jumped out of the nearly collapsed dry well and, along with the other disciples, looked at the beast.

It was five meters long, resembling a giant catfish, with rock scales covering its body, bulky in form, and now with its jaw shattered, it rolled around on the ground.

“It seems to be a middle rank Demon Soldier Level variant ‘Shale Catfish Monster,’ capable of devouring all living beings in its vicinity, very ferocious, with the downside of being immobile,” Mo Ying said.

“Look, the Immortal Masters from the Misty Sect have captured a monster!”

“My word, such a huge catfish, won’t fit in one pot, you would need over a hundred barbecue grills.”

“Merchant Zhang, you can finally rest in peace!”

The citizens of Five-Colors City heard the loud noise, all turned to look, and upon discovering the struggling Shale Catfish Monster, became indignant.

“It’s actually a demon of the middle rank Demon Soldier Level and so large in size, no wonder those few cultivators never came out after descending the well,” an old man at the third level of Qi Refinement sighed.

As the surrounding citizens became aroused, Ye Feng discovered with surprise that his Sect Prestige Value was increasing.
