Outside the city.
Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu stared at the scene before them, their hearts tightening with alarm.
“This isn’t right.”
The enemy soldiers exuded a strange aura that should never belong to ordinary humans. In fact, within the void, the oppressive and sinister energy radiating from these soldiers had coalesced into the form of a terrifying demonic god.
Feng Yan Yun observed the scene, her heart sinking, and then turned to the two men. “How can Yue Country’s soldiers possess such a powerful aura?”
“Be careful, something’s definitely wrong here,” Qiu Zhan Yu warned.
Deep within Yue Country’s army, he sensed two extremely powerful presences—presences he recognized well. He had fought them before, and only by using the Heaven-Encompassing Net were they driven back.
“Hahahaha…” Suddenly, a fierce roar echoed from within the Yue army.
Two figures floated in the air, locking eyes on Qiu Zhan Yu and the others.
“Qiu Zhan Yu, Jin Zhen Gu! Come out and die!” A violent voice erupted, its power shaking heaven and earth.
The shockwave rippled outward, directly crashing toward the soldiers of Feng Lin City.
Qiu Zhan Yu stepped forward, raised a palm, and shattered the wave. “Didn’t expect it to be you two.”
“Of course! Our last battle was several months ago. Today, my senior and I are here to test your strength once again,” Luo Li laughed arrogantly.
Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu stepped forward, blocking the sky, and whispered to each other, “Be careful. These two aren’t our equals. If they dared to come here again, they must have some kind of advantage.”
“Hmph. You dare invade Feng Lin City? As long as we two brothers are here, you won’t succeed,” Jin Zhen Gu roared.
“Is that so?” Luo Li smirked, then turned his gaze toward Feng Yan Yun in the distance. “The ruler of Feng Lin City is quite the beauty. Taking her back as a spiritual furnace partner would be more than satisfactory. Hahahaha!”
Sinister laughter echoed as he flicked his sleeve. “Attack!”
The Yue army surged forward, empowered by some mysterious force, howling like monstrous beasts.
Whoosh!
“Die!”
“Heaven-Encompassing Net!”
Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu roared, their power surging as the Heaven-Encompassing Net floated in the void, instantly covering the sky and engulfing the entire Yue army.
This was the might of a supreme-grade immortal artifact.
Having reached the peak of True Immortal cultivation, the artifact’s power had naturally increased.
Though they couldn’t fully unleash its potential, it was still far beyond what Luo Li and his junior brother could handle.
“Hahahaha! Did you really think we had no countermeasure?” Luo Li laughed loudly, then shouted into the void, “Grandmaster Ming Sha, please intervene!”
At that moment, Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu were visibly shocked.
“Excellent! So it’s a supreme-grade immortal artifact. In the hands of these two, it’s nothing but a disgrace to such a treasure. Only in the hands of Grandmaster Ming Sha can it truly display its might!” A chilling aura filled the void.
An old man, riding a dragon formed from malevolent energy, soared through the air and appeared before them.
“Grandmaster Ming Sha!” Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu’s faces changed drastically at the sight of the old man.
Grandmaster Ming Sha was a renowned figure, a Golden Immortal cultivator.
They never expected that Luo Li and his junior brother would actually bring someone this terrifying.
At this moment, not only were Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu stunned, but Feng Yan Yun also wore a look of fear. The old man who had been guarding her side was sweating profusely.
“Grandmaster Ming Sha is a Golden Immortal cultivator! Why would he get involved in mortal affairs?” the old man gasped in terror.
“This supreme-grade immortal artifact now belongs to me,” Grandmaster Ming Sha laughed, spreading his fingers as Golden Immortal laws swept forth.
This was a supreme-grade immortal artifact—no ordinary treasure.
If these two had reached the level of Mysterious Immortal, even he might find them troublesome.
But right now, they were merely True Immortals. To protect such a treasure was nothing more than a dream.
“Hahahaha! Your time has come!” Luo Li laughed and charged toward Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu.
…
At this moment, deep within a hidden chamber underground.
A bed stood out prominently in the darkness, and on it lay a motionless figure, as still as the dead.
But suddenly, the figure opened his eyes and let out a furious curse.
“Damn it! That Future Boundless Buddha was so damn treacherous! Just a single divine thought managed to trap me for so long!” Lin Fan shouted angrily, though the reward of crushing that divine thought was quite pleasing.
But just then, Lin Fan froze. He sensed something was off around him.
“Where the hell am I? Why is it so damn dark?” Lin Fan exclaimed in shock, then gathered his spiritual energy to illuminate his surroundings.
When he saw the surroundings, he was stunned.
Rock walls, a deep abyss. Looking up, there seemed to be some kind of mechanism above.
Boom!
The ground shook as a figure burst from beneath.
“What the hell? Where are my two little brothers? Did they really think I was dead and just leave me buried here?” Lin Fan cursed internally. This was truly awkward.
He looked around.
The surroundings were unfamiliar.
He floated in the air, taking in the view, and was immediately confused—why was he in a city?
“Hey!”
At that moment, Lin Fan sensed fluctuations of spiritual energy from ahead, though he didn’t know what was happening.
As he stepped forward, a figure was seen running frantically on the ground.
Lin Fan landed and grabbed the person. “Hey, where am I?”
The runner was startled upon seeing Lin Fan. “You’re in Feng Lin City. There’s a war outside, and we’re about to lose. Hurry up and run.”
“Feng Lin City?”
Where was that?
Lin Fan was confused. Where were Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu?
Could it be they thought he was too much trouble and just left him behind?
But looking at his clothes, they were clean, as if recently cleaned. It seemed someone had taken care of him.
“Whatever. I’ll figure it out later. I should see what’s going on first.” Lin Fan immediately flew into the air, heading toward the commotion.
If Lin Fan knew the Future Boundless Buddha had tricked him for three years, he would have cursed it to death.
On the battlefield.
Boom!
Boom!
Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu were sent crashing into the ground like cannonballs.
“Hahahaha! Without the supreme-grade immortal artifact, you’re nothing but ants!” Luo Li and his junior brother laughed arrogantly, then opened their mouths wide, sucking in all the surrounding spiritual energy.
Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu struggled to their feet, spitting blood as they looked toward the sky.
The supreme-grade immortal artifact was now controlled by Grandmaster Ming Sha and no longer responded to their commands.
Feng Yan Yun watched the scene, despair creeping into her eyes. It was over. Everything was lost.
Just then, a voice suddenly echoed from the sky.
“You two bastards! Why the hell did you bury me underground?”
Upon hearing the voice, Qiu Zhan Yu’s pale face lit up with joy as he roared, “Big Brother, you’re finally awake! Come save us! We’re about to get killed!”
“Who the hell dares to hurt my little brothers? They sure as hell don’t respect me!” Lin Fan was furious upon hearing this.
Feng Yan Yun, who had already lost hope, suddenly looked toward the sky, confusion on her face.
“Another insignificant pest trying to interfere…” Luo Li shouted angrily, lifting his head—but before he could finish, a massive palm descended from the sky and struck him head-on.
“Die.”
Bang!
He exploded into a pool of blood, instantly dead beyond recovery.
From start to finish, he didn’t even have a chance to react.
At that moment, Feng Yan Yun was stunned.
