Chapter 156 155: Borrowing a Demon to Slay the Enemy
Ling Fei's appearance made the eyes of the Cultivators across the Cold Pool blaze with fervor.
Many of them even hoped that these attackers would fail.
Because only then would they have a chance to hunt down Ling Fei themselves.
Among them, some were already poised for action, ready to strike Ling Fei at any moment.
SWISH, SWISH!
Beams of Sword Qi, like rainbows, shot toward Ling Fei.
At this moment, everyone was staring intently at the cave entrance ahead.
ROAR!
As those men attacked, a look of panic flashed in Ling Fei's eyes, and he hastily unleashed the True Dragon Roar.
The True Dragon Roar resounded, its sound waves rolling out, shaking the high heavens with a force that could pierce metal and shatter clouds.
It looked like Ling Fei had attacked in a hurry, but in truth, he had been building up his power all along. This was a strike with all his might.
The sound waves swept forward, causing the Void in front of him to ripple.
The six attacking men from the Celestial Spirit Realm all froze. Their expressions stiffened as terror surfaced in their eyes.
Each of them felt as if they'd been struck by lightning, their minds buzzing.
The man at the very front even started bleeding from all seven orifices. His body faltered before plummeting from the sky into the Cold Pool below.
SPLASH!
Water sprayed into the air as the Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivator sank to the bottom of the pool.
The other five were completely stunned as well.
They had all attacked with the intent of killing Ling Fei in one blow to claim the credit, never imagining he would retaliate with an Absolute Kill Strike.
That was why they hadn't converted the Emperor's Qi from their Waist Tokens into a Defense Shield, instead using it to power their earth-shattering attacks.
But at that very moment, Ling Fei's figure flashed out of the cave.
Like a roaming dragon, he weaved between the beams of Sword Qi that were slashing toward him.
The next moment, he appeared before the five Celestial Spirit Cultivators.
Sword Qi Arrow!
Then, with a flick of his Long Sword, Ling Fei's Sword Qi transformed into five arrows that shot toward the five Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivators.
SWISH, SWISH!
Five consecutive streams of Sword Qi burst forth, piercing the hearts of all five men in an instant.
"Dragon Leaping into the Sky!" After killing the five men, Ling Fei slashed his Long Sword, sending a wave of Sword Qi down onto the water's surface. He used the impact to launch himself upward like a True Dragon, halting his descent. Once airborne, he moved again.
"Dragon Roaming the Sea!" As the deep voice rang out, Ling Fei's body flew toward the cave entrance ahead.
At that moment, the few remaining beams of Emperor Sword Qi struck the cave wall, causing huge boulders to tumble down.
However, Ling Fei smashed right through the boulders and charged into the depths of the cave.
Then, as fast as lightning, he darted deeper inside.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
By the time it was over, the people on the other side were still dazed, unable to process what had just happened.
"They're... all dead?" The crowd only came to their senses after Ling Fei had vanished from sight.
An uproar immediately followed.
"That guy's Sound Wave Secret Technique is terrifying!"
"If we attack, we have to protect ourselves from his Sound Wave Secret Technique before we can land a decisive blow!" The men's eyes were filled with apprehension.
Only now did they truly understand how fearsome Ling Fei's Sound Wave Secret Technique was.
"Let's go. Follow me and we'll execute this young pup." At this, Wang Tianba's gaze turned cold as he said, "With me here, killing him will be as easy as flipping my hand."
"Yes!" Seeing Wang Tianba take the lead, the crowd immediately responded.
After all, the failure just now was only because those six men had acted impulsively and forgotten about Ling Fei's Sound Wave Secret Technique.
If those six had coordinated, with one person using Emperor's Qi to shield the group while the other five attacked, the outcome would have been completely different.
So, after quelling the shock in their hearts, the men quickly regained their confidence.
Not only that, but ferocious smiles also began to appear on their faces.
Now that Ling Fei was hiding inside the cave, wasn't he just a fish in a barrel?
If they captured Ling Fei, promotions and titles would be theirs.
WHOOSH!
The Red Simurgh took flight, and Wang Tianba appeared at the cave entrance. With a single movement, he disappeared inside.
Behind him, forty more people followed, leaving only sixty-four waiting outside.
Because Ling Fei's spine had absorbed most of the Cold Qi in the cave, these Celestial Spirit Realm experts were unaffected upon entering.
Wang Tianba moved like a phantom, transforming into a fiery rainbow as he chased after Ling Fei.
Behind him, eight experts of the Late Stage Celestial Spirit Realm followed closely.
Ling Fei, meanwhile, used his Soul Power to constantly gauge the distance between them.
He maintained a safe distance from his pursuers, but not so far that Wang Tianba and the others would lose him.
He even deliberately slowed down as he neared the Flood Dragon Cave.
"We're about to catch him!" From behind, Wang Tianba and his men saw Ling Fei's figure and shouted, their eyes burning with excitement.
"After him!" A glint flashed in Wang Tianba's eyes. His Blood Qi surged, and he was visibly excited.
Finally, with a flash, Ling Fei appeared in the cavern where the Flood Dragon resided.
He had just entered the cavern when Wang Tianba followed him in.
Then, Ling Fei's body shot forward.
"Brat, surrender now!" Wang Tianba snorted coldly. At the same time, he drew a Long Sword, preparing to attack.
Behind him, a Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivator had already activated his Divine Guard Waist Token, manifesting a Light Shield that enveloped Wang Tianba and the others.
Clearly, they were guarding against Ling Fei's Sound Wave Secret Technique.
ROAR!
At this moment, Ling Fei quickly turned and unleashed the True Dragon Roar.
The sound waves rolled forward, crashing toward them.
But with the Light Shield formed from Emperor's Qi protecting them, the shield merely rippled and the sound waves failed to penetrate it.
Thus, Ling Fei's attack was ineffective.
Just as the power of the sound waves weakened, Wang Tianba moved. His hand passed through the defensive Light Shield, and his sword slashed down toward Ling Fei's head.
SLASH!
The Long Sword slashed down, its Sword Qi undergoing Gang Transformation. It was like a streak of fiery silk cutting through the Void, illuminating the entire cavern with its dazzling Sword Gang.
'Perfect timing.' At that moment, Ling Fei moved, darting toward the area where the Flood Dragon was.
WHOOSH!
The Sword Gang slashed down, accompanied by a scorching aura. The resulting shockwave rolled out like a wave of fire, carrying an intensity that seemed capable of incinerating all things.
Meanwhile, Wang Tianba and the other eight Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivators had already rushed over, intending to kill Ling Fei in a single, decisive blow.
Just as they rushed forward and the Sword Gang slashed down, the Demon Python—which had been silently refining Flood Dragon Essence Qi with its eyes closed—suddenly snapped them open. The very first thing it saw was the scorching Sword Gang cutting down through the air. A savage aura instantly erupted from its eyes.
HISS!
The Demon Python let out a strange cry, and a terrifying aura swept out like a monstrous wave.
The next moment, its body suddenly shot into the air, flying forward.
A shockwave pulsed from its body, directly shattering the Sword Gang. A wave of Cold Qi spread out, overwhelming the scorching air current.
Immediately, Wang Tianba and his men felt the Cold Qi wash over them. The Void before them seemed to be frozen solid, and even the Gang Qi inside their bodies began to show signs of solidifying.
"This... This is a Primordial Pill Realm Demon Python?"
"This Demon Python's aura seems to surpass the Small Primordial Pill Realm... It couldn't be a Profound Pill Realm Great Demon, could it?" The Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivators' eyes filled with terror.
"Is this a Celestial Pill Realm Great Demon?" Wang Tianba's pupils shrank abruptly.
In their terror, someone took out a Divine Guard Waist Token, preparing to activate the Emperor's Qi within to deal with the Demon Python.
WHOOSH!
But the Demon Python was immensely powerful. With a sweep of its giant tail, a terrifying shockwave sent all of them flying.
THUD! THUD! THUD!
Instantly, Wang Tianba and the eight Celestial Spirit Realm Cultivators were all slammed against the cavern wall.
