"You're saying that you killed everyone in the city in order to improve your spirit root?" Chu Feng asked in disbelief.
"Tsk tsk tsk, why? Is your sense of justice exploding?" The City Lord suddenly laughed.
His voice was like the cold wind in the netherworld, making one's back turn cold.
"You disciples of great sects!" The City Lord looked at Chu Feng's unsightly face and couldn't help but ridicule, "You guys will never know what we've experienced. The heavenly law is unfair. Why can you cultivate while we can't advance an inch?"
After hearing the City Lord's words, Chu Feng shook his head and said, "You're too greedy. Can't you just continue being the City Lord?"
"City Lord?" He could not help but mock. "A mere City Lord only has a slightly higher status than an ordinary person. If any powerful cultivator comes, I will have to bow and scrape. I am unwilling to do so!"
"So? You killed everyone here to help you improve your spirit root and step onto the immortal path?" Chu Feng asked.
"Hmph, they're just ants beneath the masses. If I don't kill them today, they'll die because of other factors. Why not use them so that they can help me?" The City Lord gritted his teeth and said.
"What about the others? What about those cultivators?" Chu Feng asked.
"Hmph, those are just my food for breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm! And you, you're the last one," the City Lord said sinisterly before grabbing towards Chu Feng.
Chu Feng didn't dare to be careless. The City Lord before him was no longer at the Ninth level of Qi Refinement.
He could feel the immense aura emanating from his body. He was at least at the peak of Qi Refinement!
Moreover, this was his home ground. This battle was going to be difficult.
But Chu Feng didn't shrink back. As long as his opponent wasn't at the Foundation Establishment stage, he had the courage to stay.
Chu Feng had already secretly activated Ghostly Steps. When the City Lord moved, he had already moved.
Chu Feng's hands didn't stop moving as he moved out. He once again formed a series of hand seals in the air and a few giant wind blades shot towards the City Lord.
"This move again?"
The City Lord snorted coldly. Then, the demonic qi in his hands surged. A wave of demonic qi rose up like a tsunami. In a few seconds, it grew into a black demonic qi tide that was ten meters tall.
The dark tide was extremely dense with demonic qi. Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be countless vengeful spirits attached to it, constantly struggling and roaring.
After accumulating its strength, the city lord let out a soft snort. In an instant, the dark tide that was close to ten meters in height fell towards Chu Feng!
But the City Lord didn't stop there. He pressed his hands together in the middle again, and a sword as black as ink formed in his chest. He kept compressing it, and the sword in front of him grew smaller and smaller until it was the size of a dagger.
Dark light swirled around the sword. The thick demonic qi condensed into a solid form, dripping with water vapor.
Finally, the accumulation was complete. Following which, the City Lord waved his hand at Chu Feng and silently stabbed the dagger towards Chu Feng.
The huge dark tide finally collided with Chu Feng's wind blades. With a loud boom, the dark tide was directly destroyed by the wind blade.
However, the ruined dark tide did not disappear just like that. Instead, when the wind blades passed through its body, it suddenly fused back together.
In an instant, the boundless dark tide enveloped several huge wind blades.
The wind blades felt immense pressure and continued to struggle.
The dark tide surrounding the wind blades was also rapidly decreasing in height.
However, this was the home ground of the dark tide after all. Not long after, the City Lord in the distance cast another spell, filling the dark tide's concentration. Finally, the wind blades were suppressed.
Chu Feng couldn't help but frown upon seeing this scene.
It seemed that the other party had found a way to counter his wind blades.
However…
Chu Feng felt that the demonic qi around him seemed to have weakened quite a bit.
It seemed like the City Lord had used the demonic qi from the array formation when he was executing the technique.
It seemed that the demonic qi in the array was not endless.
This put Chu Feng at ease.
Just as Chu Feng was about to use his Dao Technique again, a strong warning appeared in his mind.
"No!"
Chu Feng's expression changed.
Thanks to his experiences in life-and-death battles, he was constantly on high alert.
Therefore, when the killing intent appeared, he quickly reacted.
He couldn't care about anything else, and he hurriedly moved away with Ghostly Steps.
But before he could relax, that killing intent locked onto him again.
And it was getting stronger.
At this moment, Chu Feng didn't dare to be careless. He knew it was the other party's killer move.
Therefore, he had no choice but to quickly form a hand seal and release the Wind Wall.
In an instant, a wind wall firmly blocked Chu Feng's path.
The moment the wind wall rose, the dagger appeared.
Looking at the pitch-black dagger, Chu Feng's eyelids twitched madly.
It seemed to be reminding him of the danger of the dagger.
Chu Feng didn't dare to be careless at all. He increased the output of the wind wall once again.
Meanwhile, the City Lord couldn't help but sneer when he saw Chu Feng raise the wind wall. He raised his index and middle fingers with his right hand, and a wisp of demonic qi that came from the same source as the dagger appeared on his fingertips. With a slight movement, the dagger that was about to collide with Chu Feng's wall suddenly made a turn and broke through from the left.
"Long-range manipulation?"
Chu Feng didn't panic. He controlled the wind wall with one hand and followed.
He formed another hand seal with his other hand and unleashed another set of wind blades, charging towards the city lord.
