After a few short hours, the group exited the Blood God Forest. After so long Feng had finally completed his goal in the Blood God Forest and even accomplished some additional goals. One of them was getting some of the materials to make a non-parasitical physical body for Proteus since he could only come out when he was bound to another being.
Apart from that, he obtained another non-human encyclopedia, Mephistopheles while the other being Damon. The first was rational and would not give him false information out of his pride. The other, however, was a trickster, and now that he had a bit of a feud with Damon, the other party was even more likely to provide him with false information.
However, it was highly unlikely that Feng would meet Damon to provide him with information; they hadn't talked since he surrendered Feng's body for him.
After a while, Feng finally got his mind off the events in the danger zone. But then, he couldn't help but think of the strange events that happened there, Mephistopheles's awakening, the weird demonic language that Damon used, that transformation that the Blood Queen accessed.
It was all so odd, with his previous facade of childish behaviour and mischievousness gone, Feng no longer looked as goofy handsome as before, but now looked to die for handsomeness.
Swish, Swish
In the air, Mephistopheles's tail swished violently, hitting the air and causing shockwaves. With his vast knowledge and foresight, coupled with his omniscience he had decided on his next course of action.
They soon reached the halfway point of their journey, but the view that came with it was an unexpected sight. It was several black-robed figures, their faces were covered with masks that looked quite similar to Feng's, but instead had the print of a mouth filled with jagged teeth on it.
The one in the lead spoke. "You have offended the Great Luna Clan, so you must die!"
But Feng and the rest looked on with confusion, with question marks floating above their heads.
Finally, Feng spoke, mockery and confusion lacing his voice. "What Great Luna Clan, is it something that can be eaten? I'm actually quite hungry, I haven't eaten in a while."
He said, and truly his stomach grumbled with dissatisfaction, Long Hu also noticed what Feng was doing and joined in on the fun.
"Ah yes, although energy can supplement our bodies, it still can't be compared to the mortal grease of amazing cuisine. So, since the Great Luna clan came to welcome us, I assume there are food and drinks?"
Veins literally popped in the head of these guys, "Shut up, everyone KILL!"
Finally, they stopped listening to the two goofy fellows who they had just assumed to be comic relief and charged forward.
The chanting of magic incantations was heard as both sides charged forward, different spells flew; fire, lightning, water, ice. And there were even some rare ones like Gold Magic or Bone creation from the opposing side.
But there were even equally rare on the other sides, the Shameless Dragon Mercenaries, Eshu and Nosferatu charged forward at the same time. Eshu miraculously floated into the air, his voice reverberated throughout the battlefield as he chanted a spell.
Two runes appeared in his eyes, one was dark while the other was light, they both precisely represented life and death, with the lighter colour being death and the darker colour being life. That representation was ironic.
The moment he finished his chant, dark and white mists spew out of his palms, rapidly spreading and floating towards a portion of the dark-robed people, the mists converged at the centre of a portion of the black-robed figures.
The sounds of the wind stirring could be heard as a chilly ghastly wind appeared in the surroundings, propelling the mists to form a tornado, from an outsider's perfective, the tornado of black and white mists looked quite creepy, and coupled with the terrified yells of the attackers, it sounded ghastly.
The tornado of black and white mists dispersed and seemingly with a mind of its own spread to look for opponents, now that the mists no longer blocked the vision of onlookers, they saw the result of the devastation, no pieces of clothing or weapons, no blood, no leftover pieces of flesh, no organs, all that lay there were bones.
Although this scene looked gruesome, one could almost call it, ascending back to pureness?
Meanwhile, on another part of the battlefield, the Shameless Dragon Mercenaries, were in a tight formation, and as they chanted, golden words formed in the air space above them.
Their hands were clasped in a weird way as they chanted, "mo inam emdap muh!" The image of a vast dragon appeared in the sky above them, seeing this their opponents could hardly believe this.
Both Feng and Long Hu looked on, with Feng looking quite annoyed.
"That was just the Six Great Words of Mantra Compassion [1] spelt backwards, you damned cheat! I highly doubt your people can do anything with it."
"Hehe, but who said it didn't have any power? Just watch."
And it was truly like he said, the moment the golden dragon appeared in the air, the heads of the attackers began to give off steam, it was almost as if their brain cells began to rot. . .
Staring at this, Feng was both helpless and astounded, just what sort of drug did he give his people??
"Hmm, it looks like they're some fools who managed to evade my detection, I shall kill them, just to alleviate my boredom."
The person who spoke was an old man, he had white hair and a wrinkled face; he was most probably one of those who failed to breakthrough to the Lord Rank and was stuck in the Jade Rank unless he encountered some kind of blessing.
In truth, Feng and Long Hu hid their cultivation bases intentionally to draw out any hidden expert that was within the human walls, and it seemed they had lured out a strong enemy!
