116: return

For a time, both sides were locked in intense combat. Lin Feng, relying on his Late-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivation and powerful Spiritual Artifact attacks, left his opponents with no chance to retaliate. Each flap of Lin Feng's Fiery Feather Fan unleashed scorching flames, like a Fire Dragon, weaving through the black-clad figures. Wherever it passed, a sea of fire erupted. Under the assault of the flames, the black-clad figures screamed in agony as their clothes caught fire and their bodies were consumed by the inferno.

Lin Feng's attacks grew even more ferocious. He controlled the Crimson Seal, and each time it slammed down, it was accompanied by a deafening roar, as if it would shatter the very earth. Wherever the Crimson Seal passed, the bodies of the black-clad figures were instantly crushed to powder, and blood splattered everywhere.

Seeing this, Liu Lie and the others were greatly encouraged. They all activated their spiritual energy and charged towards the black-clad figures. Led by Lin Feng, they gradually turned the tide of the battle, overwhelming the black-clad figures and leaving them breathless.

Seeing the unfavorable situation, the black-clad figures all tried to flee. However, how could Lin Feng give them a chance? He controlled the Spirit Rhinoceros Shield, blocking all those who tried to escape. At the same time, the Three-Tailed Poison Scale Needles in his hand continuously shot out, each poisonous needle like a venomous snake, accurately finding its target and delivering a fatal blow.

In just a few rounds, all the black-clad figures were defeated. They lay on the ground, their bodies convulsing, their life force rapidly extinguishing.

Lin Feng looked at the corpses of the black-clad figures scattered across the ground, his heart unmoved. He took their Storage Pouches one by one, then gathered their bodies, preparing to leave the place.

Seeing this, Liu Lie and the others expressed their gratitude to Lin Feng. They knew that without Lin Feng's help, they would likely have perished there. Lin Feng smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.

However, just as he had finished collecting the spoils of war, Li Yifeng suddenly shouted, "Fellow Daoist, help me undo the Seal!"

Lin Feng stopped and turned to look at Li Yifeng. Li Yifeng said sincerely, "Fellow Daoist, I am willing to give you all my treasures, I only ask that you take me with you as we leave this place."

Lin Feng looked at Li Yifeng, a cold sneer forming in his heart. He hadn't expected that Li Yifeng, even at this point, would still try to tempt him with treasures.

At this moment, Lin Feng wore a smile. With a flick of the Three-Tailed Poison Scale Needles in his hand, he pierced through the other party's head. Li Yifeng died on the spot, his face filled with disbelief.

Even Liu Lie, who was standing nearby, looked puzzled. Lin Feng had no time to explain to Liu Lie and the others. Instead, he told the three of them, "This place is not suitable for long stays. We should leave quickly. The subordinates of the Serpent Concubine Old Ancestor surely number more than these people."

After speaking, Lin Feng turned, preparing to lead Liu Lie and the others away from the place. However, just then, a series of urgent footsteps came from afar. Hearing this, Lin Feng's heart tightened. He hadn't expected that someone would still come here at this time.

Lin Feng quickly summoned the Spirit Rhinoceros Shield, placing it in front of everyone. At the same time, he also held the Crimson Seal and the Fiery Feather Fan in his hands, ready for battle. Seeing this, Liu Lie and the others' expressions changed drastically. They hadn't expected that after just escaping the pursuit of the black-clad figures, they would encounter new enemies.

Before long, a group of women dressed in colorful clothes emerged from the mist. Their faces were delicate and beautiful, their figures graceful, yet their eyes revealed a cold aura. Seeing this, Lin Feng secretly became wary. He hadn't expected that these seemingly beautiful women were also enemies.

The women in colorful clothes were also slightly startled when they saw Lin Feng and the others. They clearly hadn't expected to encounter other people here. However, they quickly regained their composure, and one of the women stepped forward, saying coldly, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Hearing this, Lin Feng secretly pondered. He knew that since these women appeared here, they must be related to the You Dragon Old Ancestor of Black Wind Mountain. If he rashly revealed his identity, it might invite unnecessary trouble. So, he smiled slightly and said, "We are just passing through this place, and we have no ill intentions."

Hearing this, a hint of suspicion flashed in the eyes of the women in colorful clothes. They clearly didn't quite believe Lin Feng's words. However, they didn't immediately act, but continued to size up Lin Feng and the others. Seeing this, Lin Feng was secretly anxious. He knew that if he couldn't get rid of these women quickly, it might attract more trouble.

Just then, one of the women in colorful clothes suddenly said, "No matter who you are, since you've met us, don't even think about leaving alive." After speaking, she waved her hand, and the women in colorful clothes all charged towards Lin Feng and the others.

Seeing this, Lin Feng was furious. He hadn't expected these women to be so overbearing. Lin Feng had no choice but to control the Spirit Rhinoceros Shield and the Crimson Seal, meeting their charge. For a time, both sides were locked in intense combat.

Lin Feng, relying on his Late-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivation and powerful Spiritual Artifact attacks, forced these women in colorful clothes to retreat steadily. However, these women were not to be underestimated; their movements were strange, and their attacks were cunning and vicious, making Lin Feng wary.

After more than a dozen rounds of intense fighting, Lin Feng finally found a weakness in their defenses. He fiercely activated his spiritual energy, slamming the Crimson Seal heavily onto one of the women in colorful clothes. With a loud "bang," the woman's body was instantly crushed to pieces, and blood splattered everywhere.

The other women in colorful clothes were all greatly alarmed by this. They hadn't expected Lin Feng's strength to be so formidable. For a time, their attacks became disorganized. Lin Feng seized the opportunity to counterattack, defeating the women in colorful clothes one by one.

Before long, all the women in colorful clothes lay on the ground, their bodies convulsing, their life force rapidly extinguishing. Lin Feng looked at the corpses scattered across the ground, his heart unmoved. He took their Storage Pouches one by one, then prepared to lead Liu Lie and the others away from the place.

However, just then, a series of urgent whistles came from afar. Hearing this, Lin Feng's heart sank. He knew that this was the demon cultivators of Black Wind Mountain summoning their companions. If they didn't leave now, it would probably be too late.

So, Lin Feng quickly urged Liu Lie and the others to quicken their pace, fleeing towards the outskirts of the mist. Along the way, they cautiously avoided the demon cultivators' patrol teams, finally successfully escaping the confines of Black Wind Mountain.

Lin Feng led Liu Lie and the other three back to Cloud Hidden City. After bidding farewell to the three, Lin Feng returned to the Immortal Cave he had rented there, preparing to rest properly. This trip to Youan Valley involved a series of intense battles, and Lin Feng had no desire to go out again. He planned to enter seclusion for a period of time.
