Chapter 361: Shatter
Lin Feng calmly retreated several steps, dodging the man's blade. Then, he lunged forward, unleashing a sweeping kick that struck the man square in the chest!
THUD!
The Lv Family disciple took the full force of Lin Feng's whip kick to his chest and was sent flying.
Immediately after, Lin Feng lashed out with a flurry of kicks, sending the remaining four men flying. They landed hard, clutching their stomachs and curling up like shrimp. They felt as if their internal organs were about to shatter.
PFFT!
The four men spat out a mouthful of blood, their eyes filled with horror. They couldn't understand it. Lin Feng was only one person, yet he was so strong. 'Are we really just too weak?'
But the facts spoke for themselves. They were all now on the verge of death.
"You pieces of trash, you actually dare to assassinate me?"
Lin Feng sneered. Just as he prepared to finish them off and eliminate any future trouble, the powerful sound of something tearing through the air came from behind him!
"Don't get cocky, kid!"
As the voice fell, a straight punch came blasting toward Lin Feng's back!
Lin Feng turned to see a young man with a savage expression charging at him.
It was none other than the Peak of Late-Stage Innate Powerhouse sent by Lv Zhen Tian: Wang Lu!
"Heh, you people from the Lv Family sure love your sneak attacks!"
Lin Feng spoke nonchalantly, then whipped out an incredibly fast kick at Wang Lu. Its speed was extraordinary, its power astonishing.
Wang Lu reacted in a flash. Seeing Lin Feng's kick, he instantly dodged, choosing not to clash head-on. After all, he had been watching from the shadows and had already seen how formidable Lin Feng was.
Although they were at the same level of strength, Wang Lu didn't dare to be the slightest bit careless. The aura of danger emanating from Lin Feng was simply too intense.
As Wang Lu dodged, Lin Feng retracted his attack and disengaged. He wanted to pursue, but that brief delay gave the archers an opening. More arrows shot toward him, forcing him to defend.
WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!
The air split with a piercing sound as a dense volley of arrows, like a swarm of locusts, shot toward Lin Feng. An ordinary Late-Stage Innate Martial Artist would have been overwhelmed by such an onslaught.
But for the current Lin Feng, it was hardly worth mentioning.
HWOOM!
A violent surge of Inner Strength erupted from Lin Feng's fists, pouring outward in a mad torrent. It formed a tempest of Inner Strength that deflected the rain of arrows, keeping them at bay.
When the rain of arrows subsided, Lin Feng remained completely unharmed. The projectiles had only managed to leave shallow scratches on his skin.
"Is this all the skill you have?"
A mocking smile touched Lin Feng's lips. Since his opponent wasn't continuing the attack, he decided to take the initiative.
He stomped his foot on the ground, his body shooting forward like a cannonball. In an instant, he was in front of Wang Lu, who had retreated several meters.
"Heh, I was just trying to avoid injury. Do you really think you're my opponent?"
Seeing Lin Feng charge toward him, Wang Lu sneered. He wasn't intimidated by Lin Feng's actions. Instead, an ecstatic look appeared on his face.
After all, Lin Feng's earlier performance had truly astonished him. His terrifying physical strength, his formidable defensive power, and his extraordinary agility were all things he had never witnessed before in his life.
He hadn't encountered such an opponent in a very long time.
'But that's as far as it goes. Lin Feng's attacks may be fierce and sharp, but in the face of absolute power, everything else is meaningless!'
Hearing Wang Lu's words, Lin Feng just shook his head coldly and said, "You're wrong."
"Hmph. Still talking tough!"
Wang Lu snorted coldly. With a flip of his hands, a dagger appeared in his grasp.
He whipped the dagger through the air with a flourish, creating a piercing sound. The blade's edge glinted with a cold light, a sight chilling enough to freeze one's heart.
SHING!
A black gleam flashed. The dark dagger struck out like a venomous snake, aimed straight for Lin Feng's throat. Its speed was so great that Lin Feng's pupils contracted sharply.
'So fast!'
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed. 'This Wang Lu is a cut above Zhao Biao and the others. This attack is a bit tricky.'
Not daring to be careless, he immediately took half a step to the side, barely dodging the fatal blow. But that half-step was all the opening Wang Lu needed to press forward once more.
SWISH SWISH SWISH!
In Wang Lu's hands, the dagger danced around Lin Feng like a viper, each strike coming within an inch of his clothes.
Lin Feng, not to be outdone, kept his iron rod in constant motion, parrying every one of the dagger's attacks.
The battle was a stalemate; for the moment, neither could get the upper hand on the other.
BANG!
With a muffled bang, both men retreated three steps. Fine beads of sweat had appeared on their foreheads, and they stared at one another, steadying their now ragged breaths.
"Haha."
After staring at each other for a long moment, Wang Lu suddenly burst into loud laughter. He hadn't experienced a scene like this in a very long time, not since joining the Lv Family. He was ecstatic to have finally found a worthy opponent.
"Lin Feng, you truly are powerful. But since your realm is on par with mine, what kind of Late-Stage Innate Powerhouse would I be if I didn't show you my true strength?"
A sharp light gleamed in Wang Lu's eyes as his entire body radiated an intense fighting spirit. He couldn't wait to have an all-out battle with Lin Feng!
Lin Feng was slightly taken aback. 'So he was holding back strength, too,' he thought. He wasn't the least bit afraid, however, since he hadn't used his full power either.
For him, the stronger the people of the Lv Family were, the better. This was a chance to test just how far his own power had come, and to see how long he could endure.
"You talk too much. Let's finish this so I can deal with your so-called Young Master and the Lv Family. You're starting to annoy me!"
Lin Feng said, a cold curve on his lips.
"What an arrogant brat! In that case, I'll have to teach you a lesson in humility today!"
A grim killing intent flared in Wang Lu's eyes. He couldn't believe that Lin Feng was still so arrogant in the face of his power. He had to make Lin Feng understand that his strength was not something he could contend with.
Besides, Lin Feng's combat prowess had already far exceeded his expectations. He knew this was destined to be a bitter struggle, and he was certain that Lin Feng had more tricks up his sleeve.
His mind raced, quickly formulating a plan.
'My strength is great, but Lin Feng's is unfathomable. If I let this drag on into a battle of attrition, I'll probably be the one to lose in the end.'
At this thought, Wang Lu's eyes turned cold. His body blurred into an afterimage as he lunged toward Lin Feng for the kill. He had infused the dagger in his hand with Inner Strength, and as he swung it, a cold light flashed!
