Duan Chenfeng ignored him and slashed out with his sword, instantly ending his life. Then, he shot out beams of sword qi at the soldiers, ending their lives one by one. When Duan Chenfeng stepped over the corpses and arrived beside Zhou Liang and Ba Tiandong, Zhou Liang couldn't help but say,""You can't keep killing like this, or you'll become a tool that only knows how to kill.”
" I know." Duan Chenfeng nodded." Actually, my heart is already dead. I can change into anything as long as I can."”His words were filled with helplessness. He didn't know if what he was doing was right or wrong. After hearing Zhou Liang's words, his previous decision had wavered.
" I can understand how you feel right now," Zhou Liang said." Don't worry. I'll be your best brother for the rest of my life."”As he spoke, he extended his left hand.
Duan Chenfeng retracted his Bloody Massacre Sword, extended his right hand, and struck out with his palm.
Ba Tiandong also smiled and said,""Although my ability is limited, I will definitely support you with all my might.”
After returning to his room, Duan Chenfeng said to Ba Tiandong,""Tian Dong, when the people in the village return, you should take them away as soon as possible. I killed so many soldiers just now, they will definitely not let it go.”
"Benefactor, don't worry. I know what to do.”Ba Tian Dong nodded.
" That's good," Duan Chenfeng said." Cultivate with all your might when you arrive at the Cold Death Sect. I'll return to the Cold Death Sect to look for you after I finish my mission."”
When Zhou Liang heard that Duan Chenfeng was leaving, he hurriedly asked,""When are you leaving?"
"My time is limited. I'll leave now," said Duan Chenfeng.”"What's so urgent? Can't you stay for the night?”Ba Tian Dong said.
What was it? It was a big matter, but it was also a small matter. He just didn't want to owe Xiao Ting too much, so he was so anxious. " It's very important," Duan Chenfeng said with a smile.”After saying that, he turned around and left the room.
In the sky, the seven-colored light of the Purple Cloud Pendant flickered and Duan Chenfeng's figure disappeared into the horizon.
Duan Chenfeng quickly arrived at a small town not far from Flaming Cloud Mountain on his Purple Cloud Pendant. He didn't dare to fly there because there must be a large number of self-cultivators hiding in the mountain. He had to scout the surroundings first before taking action.
The small town in front of him was called Flame Cloud Town. The defense of the city was quite tight. Even the soldiers at the city gate had the strength of condensing force, so Duan Chenfeng did not dare to underestimate them. He hid his true essence energy and followed the pedestrians on the road to the city gate of Flame Cloud Town.
Duan Chenfeng dared to enter because he realized that there was no notice of arrest on the city wall. He felt a little strange. Was it a mistake of the imperial court, or did they think he didn't dare to come here? As he thought about it, he had already arrived at the city gate. Duan Chenfeng said to himself," What are you afraid of? At most, you'll be discovered. Can't you just run away? You can still go in at night."
The soldier looked at Duan Chenfeng in confusion because he could tell that Duan Chenfeng was a self-cultivator. Usually, the self-cultivators who came here were from the government. Now that a commoner had come, he found it strange.
The soldier called Duan Chenfeng to the side and asked,""What do you do? Why are you here?”
" I'm here today." Duan Chenfeng's expression was calm as he said," I'm wandering around for nothing. So, I came here to take a look."”As he spoke, he looked around curiously.
"Like this." The soldier did not ask any more questions and let him in.
After Duan Chenfeng entered the city gate, the soldier who came to change shifts said,""Xiao Liu, who was that who went in just now? Why do I feel like he looks familiar? I think I've seen it somewhere before." He reeked of alcohol when he spoke. It seemed that he had drunk a lot in the afternoon.
"Big Brother Zhang, don't be so paranoid, okay? I've been here for three days, and I haven't noticed anything wrong!" Are you drunk again and talking nonsense?”
Hearing Xiao Liu's words, her head, which was already not very clear, started to spin again. She smiled and said,"I, I'm fine. I'll be fine in a while.”As he spoke, he stood at the place where Xiao Liu was standing just now and looked at the merchants and civilians entering the city gate with a dazed gaze.
After Duan Chenfeng came in, he felt that the soldiers guarding the gate should retire. There were so many experts standing on the city wall, but there was only one person at the gate. He couldn't help but shake his head. Moreover, there were people drinking. With such people guarding, how many people couldn't enter? Thinking of this, he felt that his own thoughts were ridiculous. Wasn't this just letting him off? Why should he consider others?
If Duan Chenfeng knew about the law here, he would not think so. Although guarding the city gate was a little harder than guarding the city wall, guarding the city wall was not life-threatening. It was different to guard the city gate. If a cultivator who was harmful to Flame Cloud Town was allowed in, they would be held accountable. A year's salary would be deducted if it was light, and they would be beheaded if it was serious. Who would be willing to do such a thing? If Duan Chenfeng really got the Spirit Contain Fruit today, then these two people might lose their heads.
After Duan Chenfeng arrived at Flame Cloud Town, he first took a look at the local terrain. The south was mainly a business street, the west was mainly inns and hotels, the east was where soldiers and some high-ranking officials lived, and the north was directly to Flame Cloud Mountain. The city wall there led to the foot of the mountain and was heavily guarded. It was not easy to get there.
If he didn't know that the terrain of the Blazing Cloud Mountain was dangerous and heavily guarded, Duan Chenfeng would have flown up. Not only that, the three sides of the Blazing Cloud Mountain were swamps with strange demon beasts. This was the only way, but it was equally difficult to walk. Duan Chenfeng, who was standing not far from the north gate, couldn't help but frown.
It was night, and the moon had already risen quietly at the top of the moon. A dark cloud drifted past, blocking the light of the moon. Duan Chenfeng came to the center of the north wall. There were not as many soldiers guarding here as there were at the city gate and the two sides. It was the most advantageous for him to enter. When midnight arrived, the soldiers guarding the place started to feel slightly tired. Some of the veterans had already started to close their eyes and cultivate, using only their ears and True Core Strength to sense everything that was happening around them.
Duan Chenfeng took out his Bloody Killing Sword and shot out a beam of Sword Qi towards the foot of the city wall. The Sword Qi pierced through the night sky and landed on a tree branch nearby, making a slight sound. It was this sound that attracted the attention of the soldiers on the city gate. Those who were tired were no longer tired, and those who were cultivating opened their eyes again. A soldier who was some distance away from the sound just now said to the soldier who was closest to the sound,"Go over and take a look.”
It was pitch-black below the city wall, and there was a faint shadow floating by. The soldier couldn't help but jump in fright, but his mission was to prevent suspicious people from entering Flaming Cloud Mountain. So, he coughed lightly to embolden himself and jumped off the city wall.
He came to the place where the sound came from and saw a branch. He looked up and found that there was no wind today. He was curious and bent down to pick up the branch to see why it had broken. Just as he picked up the branch, there was a sound not far behind him. As he was closer, he felt the energy fluctuation in the air. He quickly stood up, held the sword in his hand, and looked around vigilantly. The sound disappeared, and so did the energy fluctuation. He carefully came to the place where the sound came from.
At this moment, he felt a powerful energy fluctuation behind him. He hurriedly shouted,"Not good, someone wants to enter Blazing Cloud Mountain.”Although he was alert, he was still a step too slow. In Duan Chenfeng's eyes, he was not a qualified soldier. Duan Chenfeng released another Void Sword Qi to attract his attention when he was looking at the tree branch. When he went in another direction, he used Illusory Steps from his hiding place and quickly moved to the place where the soldier was guarding.
By the time the soldier's voice reached everyone's ears, Duan Chenfeng had already crossed the city wall and was heading straight for Blazing Cloud Mountain. Just now, everyone had also felt the energy fluctuation in the air. However, the energy was moving too fast. They couldn't grasp the direction and were a little hesitant. It was that moment of melancholy that allowed Duan Chenfeng to enter smoothly. When they finally reacted, how could they possibly catch up to Duan Chenfeng, who had a magical spell like Illusory Steps? This would only make them chase further and further away, and in the end, they would no longer be able to sense Duan Chenfeng's aura.
A group of soldiers chased them halfway up the mountain. Looking at the stone tablet that stopped in front of them, one of the soldiers asked softly,"Captain, should we chase after them?”
The captain said angrily," Why are we still chasing him? He's long gone. Even if we go up the mountain, we might not be able to find him."”
"Then what should we do?" another soldier asked.
The captain was infuriated by the two soldiers. He scolded,"How would I know what to do, you bunch of pigs.”
Just as he cursed, an old voice sounded,""What are you doing here? Why are you making a ruckus instead of guarding the city gates?”Before he could finish speaking, he had already arrived beside everyone. It could be seen that this person's cultivation was unimaginably high.
The person who had come was a rather old man. He had a beard full of hair, and one could tell his age from it. He had a serious expression on his face, and he was wearing royal clothes. His hands were behind his back, and from afar, he really gave off the feeling of an immortal.
When the captain heard the voice, his attitude immediately became respectful. He nodded and bowed."Sir, a Xiuzhenist ran in just now. We didn't dare to chase after him.”
This self-cultivator's name was Yang Yuting, and he was an expert among the palace's self-cultivators. No one knew how long he had lived, nor did anyone know how deep his Refined Qi was. What they knew was that he had been guarding Blazing Cloud Mountain, protecting an important thing-the Spiritual Fruit.
When Yang Yuting heard that someone had entered Blazing Cloud Mountain, his expression did not change much. He still said calmly,"You guys can leave first! I will handle this matter."
Hearing Yang Yuting's words, the captain didn't dare to say anything else. He quickly said,"Yes, yes!" As he spoke, he led his soldiers down the mountain.
Yang Yuting looked down the mountain and then looked at the main point of the mountain. A mysterious smile appeared on his face and he disappeared.
Duan Chenfeng fled to the middle of the mountain and finally got rid of all the pursuers. At this time, he also saw the stone tablet that stopped him. He knew that the real self-cultivation masters should be hiding on it, so he stopped his illusory steps and walked up the mountain with extreme caution.
After the Illusion Step stopped, there were no more energy fluctuations in the air. Even if a powerful self-cultivator appeared around him, as long as he hid well, he would not be easily discovered. Duan Chenfeng chose to walk through the forest at this time because it was more convenient to move with the trees as cover.
After walking for a while, Duan Chenfeng felt that the surrounding temperature had increased a lot. There were no more trees around him, only stones. There were some heat-resistant grasses growing on the stones. If Duan Chenfeng wanted to go to the crater to take a look, it would be impossible without using a spell. What should he do?
In the end, Duan Chenfeng's desperate desire to obtain the Spirit Contained Fruit to save Xiao Ting overcame the dangerous situation. He used Illusory Steps and added the power of wind. His figure flashed in the air and in the next moment, he had already arrived within a hundred meters of the crater. His figure also stopped.
Four self-cultivators blocked Duan Chenfeng's path. The one standing at the front was Yang Yuting, who was at the foot of the mountain just now. Yang Yuting looked at Duan Chenfeng and smiled."Brat, you are very brave and resourceful, but you came here much slower than I expected.”
Duan Chenfeng was shocked when he heard that. The meaning behind the other party's words was very obvious. They had already discovered him a long time ago. Since that was the case, there was no need to say any nonsense."Seniors, I came here to save a friend with the spirit containing fruit. I wonder if you can let me go.”
Yang Yuting replied,"If someone else came to ask for this Spiritual Fruit, I might give it to him. But if you come, I definitely won't give it to you."”
"Why?" Duan Chenfeng asked.
Not only did Duan Chenfeng not understand, but even the three old men behind Yang Yuting were also confused. "Because you have the Bloody Massacre Sword?" Yang Yuting asked.”
How did you guys notice it? Impossible. The things in the storage space belonged to another space. Even if the other party's magic power was high, it was impossible to be discovered. The only possibility was that when he went up the mountain, the other party already knew his whereabouts. Thinking of this, beads of sweat flowed down his forehead. He did not expect that the other party knew his every move like the back of his hand. How could he fight this time?
Duan Chenfeng quickly regained his composure and said,""Senior, I wonder what this has to do with the Bloody Massacre Sword.”
As Yang Yuting spoke, a sword appeared in his hand. It was a black sword with a faint layer of black mist on it. He held the sword and said to Duan Chenfeng,"Do you know this sword? Its name is Black Soul, and it is one of the ten lethal weapons. Do you know why there are ten lethal weapons in the cultivation world?”
Duan Chenfeng shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
Yang Yuting continued," Because the ten lethal weapons were all made by the same person. He is the world's number one forging master, Chen Lin.”
When he said this, not only was Duan Chenfeng shocked, but even the three people behind him could not believe it. However, they all knew that Yang Yuting not only had deep True Core Strength, but he was also knowledgeable. The most important reason was that he had lived for a long time, so they also believed his words. Yang Yuting saw Duan Chenfeng's disbelief and said,""At that time, Chen Lin was the master of forging magic tools in the palace. He successively forged nine deadly weapons in the palace, but he never forged the tenth magic tool. Later, he left the palace and said that the perfect magic tool he wanted to forge was not here. Before he left, he even said something to me.
I didn't understand what he meant either. Later, I heard that he died in the Cold Death Sect. He died after forging the Blood Killing Sword. After that, the news about the Bloody Massacre Sword disappeared. The Bloody Massacre Sword, the top of the ten lethal weapons, never expected to reappear in the cultivation world after a few hundred years.”
Duan Chenfeng listened to it like it was a novel and only knew a little about it. However, this was not what he cared about. What he cared about was the Spiritual Fruit. He quickly asked,"What does this have to do with whether or not you gave me a spirit?”
Yang Yuting said," Why not? Why hasn't the Bloody Massacre Sword appeared in all these years? If I'm not wrong, no one can control it!"”He raised the black soul in his hand and said,"We all have lethal weapons. Of course, I know that ordinary people can't control them. Since you can pick up the Bloody Massacre Sword, it proves what Chen Lin said. His sword can change the world.”
If Yang Yuting knew what Chen Lin had said before he died, he probably wouldn't have thought so. He wasn't talking about the sword that could change the world, but about the person holding the sword.
"So you want the sword in my hand?”Duan Chenfeng said after thinking for a moment.
Yang Yuting smiled and said," If I wanted to snatch the Bloody Massacre Sword from you, I would have done it at the foot of the mountain. The reason why I asked you to come here is because I want to use this lava fire to cut off the connection between you and the Bloody Massacre Sword. Only then can I completely control it."”
After talking for a long time, Duan Chenfeng still wanted him dead. At this moment, Duan Chenfeng smiled coldly and said,""Alright then. Since you're going to die today, I'll give you the sword.”As he spoke, the Cold Killing Sword appeared in his hand. The blade was as red as blood.
"Here you go." Duan Chenfeng made a gesture of throwing his sword, but he didn't throw it out. Instead, his figure disappeared from where he was. Duan Chenfeng took advantage of the moment when his opponent let down his guard to use Illusory Steps to move towards the crater not far away. Now, he succeeded. Looking at the hole at the entrance of the volcano that made his body heat up, he jumped down without hesitation.
The scorching heat of the volcano made Duan Chenfeng feel suffocated. The more his body fell, the higher the temperature became. Finally, Duan Chenfeng couldn't stand the high temperature anymore and used his True Core Strength to form a protective barrier around his body. Blue light flashed on the surface of his body, and a blue barrier appeared around him. With the protection of the barrier, the temperature was not as hot.
Just as Duan Chenfeng descended into the crater, a fiery red plant appeared on the rock wall beside him. The plant was only as tall as three fingers and had sharp leaves. Some of them were still growing, some had already bloomed, and some had already borne fruits. What disappointed Duan Chenfeng was that none of them were ripe.
At this moment, Duan Chenfeng noticed a few protruding rocks on the side. He spun his body and landed on the protruding rocks. After landing on the rocks, Duan Chenfeng realized that it was especially easy to pick or find Spiritual Fruits here. He raised his head and looked around the rock walls on both sides. Perhaps Duan Chenfeng's luck was too good. Not long after he searched, he found a ripe Spiritual Fruit on the rock wall opposite him.
Unripe Spiritual Fruits were green in color. When they were ripe, they were fiery red like leaves. It was hard to notice if one didn't look carefully. Duan Chenfeng leaped to the side of the Spiritual Fruit and reached out to pluck it. Just as he put the fruit into the Clear Light Ring, he suddenly felt five magic tools attacking him. The magic tool closest to him was the Black Soul. That kind of evil energy was the same as the Blood Hangman. It was very sensitive.
In such a narrow space, it was not easy to dodge. He could only use Illusory Steps and jump along the rock wall while running towards the lava mouth. Perhaps there was a dead end below, but Duan Chenfeng had no other choice. He could only silently pray for a miracle.
Outside the crater, the five of them put away their magical equipment. A self-cultivator standing behind Yang Yuting said,""Lord Yang, do you think that kid will come out alive?”
Yang Yuting smiled indifferently." It's not like you guys don't know how powerful the thousand-year-old Firefox is inside. Even the few of us can't do anything about it, let alone him.”
What was beneath the lava? The Millennium Firefox?
Of course, Duan Chenfeng couldn't hear what they were saying. Because at this moment, he had already arrived at the place where the lava was about to erupt. Looking at the surging lava below, Duan Chenfeng's heart was filled with despair. Just as he was about to close his eyes and wait for death, he found a cave beside the lava. It was as tall as a person. He was overjoyed. He jumped on the rock wall beside him and quickly landed at the entrance of the cave.
The entrance of the cave was especially bright under the scorching light of the lava. Duan Chenfeng held the Bloody Killing Sword and walked inside step by step. Every step was very light and careful. However, after taking a few steps, a flame with a special energy shot straight towards him. That energy was very familiar, just like the energy emitted by the Piebald Mystic Tiger when it attacked. Could there be a demon beast here?
Duan Chenfeng quickly turned his body to the side and dodged the raging flames. However, he was also breaking out in cold sweat. If he had been a little slower just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Before he could think further, three flames came one after another, sealing off all his paths. In front of him was flames, and behind him was lava. In such a dangerous situation, he could only fight. The Purple Cloud Pendant appeared in front of him and instantly enlarged. He wanted to use the powerful spiritual energy of the Purple Cloud Fairy Array to block the opponent's attack.
The Purple Cloud Pendant gave off a dazzling seven-colored light as it withstood the approaching flames. However, the seven-colored light on the Purple Cloud Pendant became fainter and fainter, and its power became weaker and weaker. It could not withstand the opponent's attack at all. Duan Chenfeng's body also retreated a few steps back until he reached the entrance of the cave. If he continued to retreat, he would fall into the lava. He had no choice but to risk his life. Just as he was about to go all out, the flames suddenly disappeared. Then, a young woman's voice sounded,"A divine artifact." There was a hint of surprise in her voice.
A demon beast that could speak had to cultivate for at least a thousand years. When Duan Chenfeng thought about how powerful his opponent was, he broke out in a cold sweat. He had no choice. Who asked him to be in their territory now? He could only suffer."I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you.”
The voice came from the cave again, but there was a hint of anger in it."Don't talk nonsense with me. Answer me quickly. How do you have a divine artifact?”
At this moment, the Purple Cloud Pendant had already returned to its original appearance. Duan Chenfeng held it in his hand and asked,""Are you talking about this?"
"Of course it's the one in your hand. Don't tell me you have a bunch of divine artifacts?”The voice in the cave carried a hint of mockery.
Duan Chenfeng wanted to say," I don't have a bunch, but I also have more than one." She thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say it out loud, so she replied,"When I was born, I had this thing on me.”
"Really?" Her voice was filled with doubt.
"Why would I lie to you at this point?" Duan Chenfeng sighed.”
"Alright then! I'll believe you for now." She sounded disappointed and said,""Come in!"
Duan Chenfeng walked into the cave. The cave wasn't very deep, and he soon reached it. The cave was much more spacious than the outside. It was as big as a house. In the middle of the cave sat a fox with a red body. Surprisingly, there were nine tails behind her.
When the fox saw Duan Chenfeng's surprised expression, he casually said,""What's your name? I'm Fox."
After a long time, Duan Chenfeng finally recovered from his shock and stammered,""P-Senior Fox, nice to meet you. My name is Duan Chenfeng.”
"Duan Chenfeng, right?" " Don't call me senior," Fox said." I'm going to ask you a few questions, and you have to answer them truthfully."”
" Alright." Duan Chenfeng nodded and said," Ask away!"”
Huo Hu asked a question that surprised Duan Chenfeng."Have you ever seen an immortal?"
"Ah!" "How could I have seen an immortal?" Duan Chenfeng asked in surprise.”He muttered in his heart,"Do I look like I've seen an immortal?" However, as soon as he finished speaking, he thought of the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue. Was he considered an immortal? But when he saw Fox's disappointed expression, he said,""Actually, I've seen it before."
When Fox heard this, her heart suddenly lit up with hope. She asked happily,""What kind of immortals have you seen?"
Duan Chenfeng put away his Bloody Killing Sword and Purple Cloud Pendant and took out the Soul-sucking Magic Flute. At this moment, it was Huo Hu's turn to be surprised. She never thought that this young man would have a divine artifact on him. She immediately became curious and asked,"Does your family forge divine artifacts?" At this point, she smiled and said,"Haha! Divine artifacts were born from heaven and earth, and they were formed through cultivation. How could they be forged?”Duan Chenfeng thought to himself gloomily,"How come you've lived for more than a thousand years and still know how to joke like this?" He said,"I once obtained this divine artifact on an island. At that time, although the owner of the divine artifact was dead, his soul was still there. I don't know if he counts as an immortal.”
"Of course not. Tell me what happened.”Huo Hu said excitedly. Although there was no expression on her fox face, Duan Chenfeng could already guess that it was definitely mischievous and cute.
Therefore, Duan Chenfeng narrated what he had said to the Lord of Dao and Virtue. After he finished, Huo Hu acted as if she had heard a fairy tale and asked with interest,""No more?"
"No more." Duan Chenfeng replied.
"Did he tell you if you can become an immortal?" Huo Hu continued to ask.”
Duan Chenfeng shook his head and replied,"No."”
"No way!" "He didn't say you could become an immortal, so why would I keep you here?" Huo Hu said in disappointment.”As he spoke, he was about to attack Duan Chenfeng again.
Why did he just fight like that and give me time to prepare? Duan Chenfeng protested in his heart, but if the other party really used flames or something, he would probably really die this time. He hurriedly said,"Senior Fox, can you wait a moment?”
"Wait for what?" Fox asked in a questioning tone.
Why did his personality change so much after exchanging a few words with Fox? Duan Chenfeng said indifferently,"Senior, I think you need some help here! Tell me, I might be able to help you.”
"You want to help me with this?" Fox laughed.”
" No," Duan Chenfeng said." I might not be able to help you now, but I might be able to help you in the future."”
Huo Hu thought for a moment and felt that Duan Chenfeng's words made sense, so she said,""Alright then! I'll only say it once, so you have to listen carefully.”
Duan Chenfeng nodded.”
" I don't know where I came from," Fox said." But I know that I've been cultivating here ever since I had my memories. I don't know why, but I just can't leave this cave. The moment I leave, the lava here will erupt, and I might even hurt myself. That's why I've been cultivating here all these years.
My memory told me that as long as I cultivate to a certain level, an immortal will come and take me away from here. However, I've waited for so many years, but I haven't even seen the shadow of an immortal. Not only that, there are some bored people outside who want to come in and kill me all day long.”
Duan Chenfeng nodded, indicating that he understood. However, he was confused by Huo Hu's words and had no idea what she meant. He pretended to know and said,""Senior Fox, if I become an immortal in the future, I'll definitely take you to the Immortal World.”
Fox looked Duan Chenfeng up and down and said in disbelief,""You, okay?"
Duan Chenfeng looked at Huo Hu and suddenly thought of his parents 'hatred and Sherri's departure. What was the reason for all of this? Wasn't it because he wasn't strong enough? He stared into Huo Hu's eyes and said firmly,"I can definitely do it."
Huo Hu was also infected by Duan Chenfeng's determined gaze. She said,""Alright then! I believe you, but you must remember your promise. You must take me away. If one day someone takes me to the immortal world and I find you there, I will definitely not let you off.”
" I'll definitely keep my promise," Duan Chenfeng replied with certainty.”
Seeing that Duan Chenfeng didn't look like he was lying, Fox said,""Alright, you can cultivate here now. When you can become an immortal, you can take me with you.”
When Duan Chenfeng heard that Huo Hu wanted to imprison him here, he panicked and said,"Senior, I came here to get the spirit containing fruit to save a friend. I can't waste too much time here.”
"Really?" Fox asked.
Why do you always like to ask if it's true or not? Duan Chenfeng had already lost his temper because of Fox. He said,""Senior, it's true. Think about it, who would like to come here if they have nothing to do?”
"No way!" "Those old fellows outside often come to my place!”
Duan Chenfeng was speechless by Huo Hu's question. He stood there, not knowing how to answer.
"Are you in cahoots with them?”Huo Hu said warily. Even the way she looked at Duan Chenfeng changed.
Duan Chenfeng was really furious. He said loudly,""If I was with them, I wouldn't have been beaten down here. Do you think I wanted to come here?”
Seeing how fierce Duan Chenfeng was, Huo Hu was shocked. She lowered her voice and said,""I see! I believe you, but remember to look for me when you reach the Immortal World.”
Duan Chenfeng knew that his words were a little rash, so he regained his calm and said sincerely,""Senior, don't worry! I'll definitely come back to see you."
"You can go now!" Huo Hu said to Duan Chenfeng.
Duan Chenfeng nodded and walked towards the entrance of the cave. As soon as he reached the entrance, he hesitated again. Could he get out alive like this? The five people outside must be waiting for him! He thought of Fox, so he turned to her and said,""Senior, can you help me?”
"What favor?" Fox asked.
Duan Chenfeng explained his situation to Huo Hu, who said,"It's very simple. When you're ready, I'll use my fire attribute spiritual energy to send you out now.”As he spoke, Duan Chenfeng felt his body suddenly heat up. There were layers of heat-wave-like energy around him. However, the heatwave did not cause any harm to him. It directly carried his body up to the top of the crater.
In a flash, Duan Chenfeng was pushed out of the crater by the heat wave and rushed into the air. At this time, more than ten magic tools instantly attacked him. In a hurry, Duan Chenfeng was no longer in a hurry to dodge. Fortunately, Huo Hu's fire attribute spiritual energy blocked most of the attacks for him, so his body was not injured. However, under the huge impact of the energy, his body was also sent flying in the air. The direction he flew towards was the cliff of Flaming Cloud Mountain. The cliff was filled with dense fog. Beneath the fog was the mysterious swamp.
Yang Yuting saw Duan Chenfeng fall off the cliff and quickly chased after him. When he rode his Black Soul, Duan Chenfeng's body had already fallen into the thick fog. He couldn't see where he was at all. If he continued to go down, his life might be in danger. Even an expert like him didn't dare to go to the mysterious swamp area easily. He only glanced at it angrily before turning around and flying back to Blazing Cloud Mountain.
The Imperial Palace, the Crown Prince's study.
Tian Xing said to Yu Tianxiang,"Your Highness, I have already investigated what you asked me to do."”
"Do you know who that person is?" Yu Tianxiang asked.”
Tian Xing said," According to the description of the person at that time, that person was most likely Duan Chenfeng who escaped. Also, there was news from Flaming Cloud Mountain that Duan Chenfeng had been there before. The magic weapon in his hand had never appeared in the world. It was the Blood Killing Sword, the top of the ten lethal weapons.”
When Yu Tianxiang heard that Duan Chenfeng had gone to Yanyun Mountain, he asked in confusion,""What did Duan Chenfeng go to Blazing Cloud Mountain for?”
Tian Xing replied," I'm not too sure about this subordinate. I think he used the Spiritual Fruit to save a friend. However, he has been thrown into the swamp by Sir Yang. It will probably be very difficult for him to come out."”
Yu Tianxiang shook his head and said," Nothing is impossible with him. Bring people to Cold Death Sect and put pressure on them. Remember to bring the people of Qiushan Sect with you. Don't inform the Prime Minister of this matter. Their words cannot be trusted."”
"Yes, I'll do it now," Tian Xing said.”With that, he left the study.
After Duan Chenfeng fell into the swamp from the cliff, he used all his True Qi to form a protective barrier. However, when he passed through the fog and landed in the swamp, he realized that it was useless. He still fell into the swamp.
The surroundings were pitch black, and the light on the barrier was getting dimmer and dimmer. Duan Chenfeng knew that he had fallen into the swamp. If he didn't get out now, he would die inside. However, even if he retracted the barrier now, the possibility of getting out was not very high.
Suddenly, the muddy water in the swamp started to roll. Duan Chenfeng was also thrown out of the ground and landed on an empty space. The barrier was broken at this moment. Before Duan Chenfeng could figure out what was going on, a black shadow came in front of him. Duan Chenfeng rolled twice on the ground and dodged it. When he raised his head, he was extremely shocked. A huge crab was trying to clamp Duan Chenfeng's body with its big pincers. It seemed like it was treating Duan Chenfeng as its breakfast.
The crab was as big as three people. Its entire body was gray, and only its pair of large pincers were pitch-black. They sparkled under the morning sun, looking very mighty. After missing his target, he raised his large pincer and swung it in Duan Chenfeng's direction.
It was huge, but its movements were not slow. In a flash, the pair of pincers arrived in front of Duan Chenfeng. Duan Chenfeng took out the Bloody Killing Sword and tried to resist. However, the crab didn't seem to care about the thing in Duan Chenfeng's hand at all. The pincers pulled out, and the Bloody Killing Sword flew out and stabbed into the ground beside it.
Duan Chenfeng's Bloody Killing Sword was gone. He wanted to take it, but the crab didn't give him a chance. It opened its huge pincers and tried to grab Duan Chenfeng again. Duan Chenfeng bent his body and dodged the attack again. The crab seemed to have found something very interesting. It waved its pincers around Duan Chenfeng.
It didn't matter if it waved like this, but Duan Chenfeng, who had no Refined Qi, was exhausted. He dodged left and right, rolled on the ground, and used almost all the methods he could think of to escape. His Refined Qi was gone, and now even the strength in his body was almost exhausted. If this continued, he would not be eaten by the crab, but played to death by the crab.
At this moment, Duan Chenfeng noticed that another figure had appeared above his head. He took a closer look and saw that a blue crab had appeared beside him. Perhaps the crab felt that the gray crab was playing with a small thing and wanted to join in the fun.
The blue crab joined in the fun, but the gray crab was unwilling. How could he share his private things with others? It stopped attacking Duan Chenfeng with its pincers and turned to attack the blue crab. When the blue crab saw that the gray crab was attacking it, it raised its pincers to show that it was not afraid.
