Inside a hidden cave.
Lin Feng and Murong Xue sat cross-legged and were refining the fire devil fluid.
The moment the fire devil liquid entered Lin Feng's body, he felt like his entire body was burning.
He didn't dare to delay and hurriedly circulated the 'Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art' to refine the fire devil fluid in his body.
Under the refinement of the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art, Lin Feng's body that had an extremely high temperature earlier, now returned to normal.
...
And at this moment, Yuwen Yunfeng had already stabilized his emotions. He spat out the remaining blood and felt much more comfortable. After that, he wiped away the bloodstains at the corners of his mouth and left the cave to gather with Sun Kui and the rest.
"Young master, have you obtained the fire devil fluid?" Sun Kui and the others had looks of fawning on their faces.
At this moment, Yuwen Yunfeng revealed a cold killing intent on his face. "The fire devil fluid was stolen by someone."
"What? Stolen by someone? Could it be that brat and Murong Xue?"
A cultivator spoke. This cultivator was also an expert at the Martial Master Realm. He was extremely skinny and about thirty years of age with a fierce-looking countenance.
This man was none other than Li Tianshang, one of the three martial masters in Yuwen Yunfeng's group.
Sun Kui added, "It must be done by them."
Yuwen Yunfeng had a gloomy look on his face as he nodded. "Go and search for their traces. I want to tear the two of them into pieces."
"Yes, young master."
After receiving Yuwen Yunfeng's order, the cultivators from the Soul Devouring Hall split up and went to search for Lin Feng and Murong Xue's location.
…
Six hours later, Lin Feng finally opened his eyes.
When he sensed the situation in his body, he revealed a look of surprise. After refining the fire devil fluid, his energy meridians were expanded by one size. Also, his strength had reached a shocking 30,200 jin.
"I finally broke through."
Lin Feng heaved a sigh of relief. After refining the fire devil fluid, his cultivation had reached the eighth-level of the Martial Student Realm.
At the eighth-level, his strength was about 30,200 jin.
One must know that for ordinary eighth-level cultivators, their strength was only 12,800 jin. Ordinary ninth-level cultivators had strength around 25,600 jin. And lastly, for ordinary tenth-level cultivators, their strength would be around 51,200 jin.
Now, Lin Feng had a cultivation base at the eighth-level, but his strength had already exceeded ninth-level martial students, closing in on the strength tenth-level cultivators would have.
An hour later, Murong Xue also woke up from her cultivation. At this instant, Lin Feng discovered an extremely strong fluctuation from her. He was startled as Murong Xue had also broken through!
Murong Xue had a look of joy on her face as she stood up. "Hehe, the fire devil fluid is as expected of a spiritual liquid of heaven and earth. It allowed me to break through a level."
The two of them took a small break and decided to leave their place of seclusion to look for the Yin Yang Infinite Cave.
The next day, when they passed by a forest, a wariness suddenly rose in Lin Feng's heart. He felt that this forest was simply too quiet.
Lin Feng stopped Murong Xue as he spoke, "Careful, dodge quickly!"
Lin Feng shifted to the left after he spoke. When Murong Xue heard his warning, she also shifted herself to the right.
At this moment, a figure sped past, punching out. Lin Feng and Murong Xue retreated in time and managed to avoid this attack. However, the aura of this punch was simply too strong, and it actually sent Lin Feng and Murong Xue flying.
"Brat, your cultivation is nothing much, but your senses are good."
At this moment, cold laughter rang out from within the forest.
Lin Feng and Murong Xue glanced over. Their expressions drastically changed when they discovered the person was Yuwen Yunfeng.
Upon seeing this man, their emotions fell to the bottom of the valley.
The two of them didn't expect that they would encounter Yuwen Yunfeng here. They glanced at their surroundings and when they only saw Yuwen Yunfeng alone, their expression got slightly better. If the other experts of the Soul Devouring Hall were here, the two of them would probably have a terrible ending.
Yuwen Yunfeng didn't say anything more to them. He instantly rushed over, clearly wanting to kill them both.
Most probably, this man also knew that the fire devil fluid had already been refined by Lin Feng and Murong Xue. After all, a long time had passed since then. Right now, Yuwen Yunfeng only wanted to kill Lin Feng and Murong Xue to vent the hatred in his heart.
Before he acted, Yuwen Yunfeng cast a glance at Murong Xue. He suddenly changed his mind. Lin Feng would be killed for sure, but as for Murong Xue, he would leave her alive for now. She was a top-grade beauty. If he directly killed her, wouldn't it be too much of a pity?
Nefarious intentions formed in his mind regarding Murong Xue.
…
…
Upon seeing Yuwen Yunfeng rushing over, Lin Feng brandished his sword and rushed at Yuwen Yunfeng as well.
After interacting with Murong Xue for so long, both of them already had a tacit understanding of each other.
His long sword slashed out.
"Blazing Sun Rises Up To The Sky!"
Lin Feng directly unleashed his strongest strike, the Blazing Sun Sword Art.
He knew that he must absolutely not be careless when dealing with an expert like Yuwen Yunfeng. If not, he might be the one who died here.
"Brat, you are courting death."
Cold killing intent could be seen on Yuwen Yunfeng's face. In fact, he didn't even use a weapon. True qi gathered on his fist and he simply punched out at Lin Feng.
Keng~ The sound of something heavy colliding rang out.
Lin Feng felt as though a huge mountain had just slammed into him. He was flung through the air from the impact. Yuwen Yunfeng's strength was too fearsome. The force of his strike gushed into Lin Feng's body, wanting to destroy it. Lin Feng felt shocked in his heart. From Murong Xue, he had learned that Yuwen Yunfeng's cultivation base was at the ninth-level of the Martial Master Realm. Lin Feng felt that there was simply too great of a disparity between his strength and an expert at the ninth-level of the Martial Master Realm.
However, Lin Feng wasn't discouraged. He believed that when his cultivation base advanced to the ninth-level of the Martial Master Realm, no, as long as he reached the fourth-level or fifth-level, he would be able to directly dominate Yuwen Yunfeng who was at the ninth-level of the Martial Master Realm. Lin Feng who cultivated the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art was filled with immense confidence about this.
Lin Feng circulated his devouring martial soul, completely devouring the terrifying force that was gushing into his body.
At this moment, Yuwen Yunfeng leaped into the air as he unleashed a palm strike at Lin Feng, wanting to finish him off.
Lin Feng's expression drastically changed. There was basically no way to evade this attack. But at this moment, Murong Xue had already made her preparations. Three frost ice divine needles were shot out, aimed at Yuwen Yunfeng.
Upon seeing the frost ice divine needles about to pierce into Yuwen Yunfeng's body, Murong Xue had a look of joy on her face. But at this moment, Yuwen Yunfeng laughed coldly. He waved his right hand as a square-shaped seal flew out.
This gigantic square-shaped seal radiated powerful fluctuations. Clearly, it was a very powerful type of magic weapon.
In the past, Yuwen Yunfeng had already used the three flying swords. Lin Feng and Murong Xue both didn't expect that he would still have such a treasure with him.
The Mountain River Seal rapidly expanded and became ten meters tall.
Murong Xue's frost ice divine needles slammed into the Mountain River Seal and were bounced back. The Mountain River Seal then shot out a beam of purple light that directly blasted into Murong Xue. Murong Xue groaned in pain and was flung through the air before slamming onto the ground. Her countenance instantly paled and she couldn't climb up no matter how she struggled. This blow had given her a heavy injury.
"Not good…" Murong Xue's expression drastically changed. She tried to get up and only felt intense pain coursing through her entire body. She could only watch with wide-open eyes as the Mountain River Seal flew in the air toward her.
"Will I, Murong Xue, die just like this?" Murong Xue's expression was filled with despair. But at this intense moment, Lin Feng suddenly appeared beside her. He circulated the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art in full force. The dragon elephant force rapidly gushed into his dantian, and after that, the force spread from his dantian into his four limbs and bone structure, before flowing into the long sword in his hand. Lin Feng erupted forth with his strongest sword attack.
"Blazing Sun Sword Art!" Lin Feng roared loudly as a blazing sun rose into the sky.
Lin Feng's sword clashed against the Mountain River Seal.
Yuwen Yunfeng wielding that immensely powerful Mountain River Seal was actually forced back for dozens of meters. But just by matching that strike, Lin Feng had suffered some injuries from the impact. His face was extremely pale, and he quickly helped Murong Xue to get up to her feet.
"I've suffered internal injuries. Carry me on your back, let's get out of here as soon as possible." Murong Xue's countenance was pale as well. Her three frost ice divine needles had already returned to her.
Lin Feng carried her on his back and began to flee into the distance.
Yuwen Yufeng had a face filled with killing intent as he pursued after them.
Murong Xue then took out one of the divine needles and spoke with sorrow in her tone, "You have followed me for five years and saved my life countless times. But today, I have no choice but to destroy you."
As the sound of her voice faded, Murong Xue gritted her teeth and tossed out one of the frost ice divine needles.
That divine needle began to radiate a terrifying aura.
"No wonder the might of the frost ice divine needle cannot match up to my Mountain River Seal despite it being a grade higher. So it turned out that there's a self-destruction formation engraved on it. Weapons with self-destruction formations engraved on them would inevitably be weakened by the formation." Yuwen Yunfeng's expression was extremely cold. When he saw the divine needle exploding, he rapidly retreated.
BOOM…
The divine needle destroyed itself, directly exploding. The terrifying energy waves caused the surroundings to be completely devastated. Smoke rose and dust floated in the air. When the explosive energy finally cleared, Yuwen Yunfeng hurried out from his hiding place. However, Lin Feng and Murong Xue had long since disappeared.
Upon hearing the commotion, Sun Kui and the others quickly rushed over. Yuwen Yunfeng didn't wait for them to speak and immediately roared, "Both Murong Xue and that brat is already injured by me. Quickly chase after them."
"Yes." Sun Kui and the others replied.
Swish, swish, swish~
Numerous figures flashed as they rushed into the depths of the forest, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
