34: The Blood Demon Sect Reappears

The blood-colored small banner fluttered in the wind, instantly expanding several times, with a bloody glow flickering on its surface, exuding an eerie and powerful aura. The Black-robed Heretical Cultivator waved the small banner, and immediately, a bloody scent permeated the air, making the surrounding atmosphere heavy.

Wang Mingtong's expression changed slightly at the sight. He hadn't expected this Black-robed Heretical Cultivator to possess such a powerful Spiritual Artifact. Not daring to be careless, he quickly unleashed the strongest power of his School's secret Spell, preparing to meet the opponent's attack.

Lin Feng also sensed the powerful aura of the blood-colored small banner. His heart tightened, knowing he couldn't stand by idly. He immediately took out several attack Talismans, ready to assist Wang Mingtong in confronting the Black-robed Heretical Cultivator.

Just then, the Black-robed Heretical Cultivator's Spell had already arrived. A blood-colored light shot out from the blood-colored small banner, like a Blood Dragon, pouncing towards Wang Mingtong. Wang Mingtong roared, his hands rapidly forming seals, and a golden light shield instantly appeared before him, blocking the blood-colored light.

However, the blood-colored light was incredibly powerful. The golden light shield only lasted for a moment before cracks began to appear. Wang Mingtong's heart sank, knowing he had to quickly deal with this Black-robed Heretical Cultivator, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just then, Lin Feng's attack also arrived. The Talismans in his hand streaked across the night sky like meteors, accurately hitting the Black-robed Heretical Cultivator. The Black-robed Heretical Cultivator's body swayed, clearly affected.

Seeing this, Wang Mingtong seized the opportunity to counterattack. He flashed, appearing beside the Black-robed Heretical Cultivator, his hands rapidly forming seals, and a powerful Spell in the form of a fire python attacked the Black-robed Heretical Cultivator.

The Black-robed Heretical Cultivator was greatly alarmed. He hadn't expected the cooperation between Wang Mingtong and Lin Feng to be so seamless. He tried his best to resist, but was still hit by Wang Mingtong's Spell, suffering severe injuries.

He collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with despair. He knew that this time, he was doomed.

Wang Mingtong walked up to the Black-robed Heretical Cultivator, looking at him coldly: "Heretical Cultivators are to be executed by all. That you fell into my hands today is your retribution."

With that, Wang Mingtong was about to make his move. However, just then, the blood-colored small banner suddenly burst forth with light, and a powerful force pushed Wang Mingtong back several steps.

Lin Feng was startled at the sight. He hadn't expected this blood-colored small banner to possess such powerful strength. He quickly stepped forward to support Wang Mingtong, looking warily at the blood-colored small banner.

The blood-colored small banner flickered with a bloody glow, as if some powerful force was brewing. Lin Feng and Wang Mingtong both knew that if the power of this blood-colored small banner was fully unleashed, they might both be unable to resist it.

Just then, the blood-colored small banner suddenly erupted with a powerful aura. Immediately after, a blood-colored light shot out from the banner, soaring into the sky. A venomous python condensed from blood rushed towards Lin Feng and Wang Mingtong. Midway, it split into two, one large and one small, both blood pythons rushing towards Wang Mingtong and Lin Feng.

Lin Feng and Wang Mingtong were greatly alarmed. They hadn't expected this blood-colored small banner to possess such powerful might. They both quickly unleashed their strongest Spells. Wang Mingtong formed a golden protective shield around himself, and at the same time, a black shield in front of him grew larger in the wind, preparing to block the blood-colored light.

Lin Feng, on the other hand, retreated rapidly. The blood-colored venomous python was extremely fast, and Lin Feng was quickly caught up to. While Lin Feng was retreating rapidly, he bought himself some time. He quickly pulled out several earth wall Talismans from his Storage Pouch and threw them out, forming earth walls in front of him in an attempt to block the opponent's blood python.

These earth walls only briefly hindered the opponent's charge. With a slight pause, the blood python broke through several earth walls, baring its fangs and claws as it rushed towards Lin Feng. Lin Feng had gained a little time by then, and he quickly affixed several golden light shield Talismans to his body. At this moment, the blood python had already reached Lin Feng.

Lin Feng's golden light shields shattered one after another. Lin Feng quickly affixed several more to himself, but they were ultimately shattered by the blood python. The blood python, after some consumption, also became dim and lifeless, sending Lin Feng flying a dozen meters away.

However, the power of the blood-colored light was too great. Wang Mingtong's Spell only lasted for a moment before being defeated.

Both were severely injured, collapsing to the ground. They knew they had encountered a truly formidable enemy this time. If they didn't quickly deal with this blood-colored small banner, they might both lose their lives.

Just then, the blood-colored small banner suddenly dimmed, as if it had lost its power. Lin Feng and Wang Mingtong's hearts filled with joy, knowing that the small banner's power was exhausted, and this was their chance.

They both struggled to get up, preparing to launch their final attack on the blood-colored small banner. And the Black-robed Man, seizing this opportunity, also struggled to get up, his aura weakened. Lin Feng could sense that he had regressed from Late-Stage Foundation Establishment to Early Stage Foundation Establishment. From the strands of hair exposed by the Black-robed Man, it was also evident that his hair had turned from black to white.

It seemed that activating the blood-colored small banner just now had consumed a great deal of the Black-robed Man's Origin. The man saw that his attack had failed to kill Wang Mingtong and Lin Feng.

The black-clothed man was also a decisive person. He immediately waved his hand, retrieved the blood-colored small banner, and then quickly took off and flew away. Wang Mingtong, being injured, hesitated for a moment and ultimately chose to give up the pursuit. Without Wang Mingtong, Lin Feng would never dare to pursue a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

At this moment, Lin Feng came to the side of the Li Family Head, who had been severely injured. After some examination, he found that Li Haocheng had already bitten his tongue and committed suicide. Lin Feng fumbled around on his body and found his Storage Pouch, as well as a blood-colored token with a blood character on it.

Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat. This blood-colored token was clearly connected to the Black-robed Heretical Cultivator and the blood-colored small banner in some way. He quickly handed the token to Wang Mingtong, who took it and examined it carefully.

Wang Mingtong looked at the blood character on the token, his brows tightly furrowed: "This token is probably an identification for Heretical Cultivators, and that blood character is very likely a mark of the Blood Demon Sect. I observe that the Cultivation Technique used by the Black-robed Man is also very similar to the methods of the Blood Demon Sect."

After a moment of contemplation, Wang Mingtong informed Lin Feng:

"In recent years, the Blood Demon Sect has become increasingly active in the control areas of our Great Xin's Four Great Sects. The matters here are no longer something a Qi Refining Cultivator like you can participate in. I will report to the Sect and request commendation for you. As for this place, other Cultivators will take over later. Let's go back."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng felt a chill of fear. He hadn't expected to inadvertently get caught up in such a terrifying struggle. He looked at Wang Mingtong gratefully and said, "Thank you, Senior Martial Uncle Wang, for coming to Chunhe Prefecture. Otherwise, I would probably have met a terrible end today."

Wang Mingtong patted Lin Feng's shoulder and said earnestly, "Lin Feng, you don't need to be so polite. This incident happened within our Cloud-Soaring Pavilion's sphere of influence. If I hadn't acted, someone else would have. Moreover, you have rendered great service this time, and I will report it truthfully to the Sect."

Lin Feng nodded, secretly feeling fortunate. He knew that if the Sect hadn't sent Wang Mingtong to arrive in time this time, he would probably have truly met a terrible end.
