45: Night attack

Lin Feng and the Cultivators who came to this place were stationed here for about ten days, and everything was peaceful.

At first, everyone was very nervous, but as time passed, they realized that the Heretical Cultivators had not attacked.

Because there was no fighting, their vigilance slowly decreased.

However, Lin Feng and the Cultivators around him had different ideas.

Heretical Cultivators often launched sneak attacks on Qianmen Pass, and it was possible that one day they would attack their defensive position.

Since he needed to constantly monitor the movements of the Heretical Cultivators during his watch, Lin Feng could not Cultivate.

Lin Feng did not want to waste time, so after some thought, he simply set up a table and chair by the city wall, released Xiao Ying, and had her observe the movements on the opposite side for him.

While on watch, Lin Feng began to refine Talismans.

Every time Lin Feng completed a Talisman, he would observe it, and during the refining process, he had Xiao Ying monitor the Heretical Cultivators' movements for him.

Lin Feng usually had little interaction with the Cultivators around him.

After each shift, he would Cultivate in the small rest hut arranged on the city wall.

Lin Feng would Cultivate for an entire day, maximizing the use of the Heaven Rewards Diligence entries.

Lin Feng's state of intense, ascetic Cultivation was out of place with the Cultivators around him.

Some Cultivators admired Lin Feng's diligent Cultivation, while others, knowing Lin Feng's poor Spiritual Root Aptitude, secretly mocked him, believing his efforts were in vain.

Lin Feng paid no attention to others' gazes.

Lin Feng didn't care about the gossip, but Huang Ruoxuan couldn't stand it.

She specifically criticized the few Cultivators who led the mockery and told everyone to learn from Lin Feng.

Huang Ruoxuan informed everyone that while a Cultivator's Spiritual Root Aptitude was important, were all high-level Cultivators in the Cultivation World necessarily highly gifted?

The answer was clearly no.

She warned everyone that while talent was important, diligence was also indispensable.

If a person became complacent due to high talent, and then in a real battle found themselves just a little weaker than their opponent, by the time they realized they hadn't worked hard enough, it would already be too late.

After criticizing everyone, Huang Ruoxuan called Lin Feng over and encouraged him not to mind others' opinions.

She admired Lin Feng's diligent Cultivation and told him not to let others' few words shake his conviction.

Lin Feng assured Huang Ruoxuan that he would continue to work hard.

Huang Ruoxuan was satisfied with Lin Feng's reply, nodded, and let Lin Feng leave.

Because of Huang Ruoxuan, no one in Lin Feng's team mocked him anymore, and Lin Feng didn't take this small incident to heart, continuing his intense Cultivation and Talisman refining.

Lin Feng generally refined Talismans during the day while on watch, and at night, with Xiao Ying's help, he would Body Refining on the city wall while monitoring the movements of the Heretical Cultivators.

After a month of peaceful days, one night, as Lin Feng was diligently Body Refining, Xiao Ying flashed and appeared beside Lin Feng.

At this time, Xiao Ying's intelligence was not high enough to express her thoughts.

She pulled Lin Feng's sleeve, making him look towards the Heretical Path camp.

Lin Feng understood Xiao Ying's meaning, leaped to the edge of the city wall, and using his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, saw a group of Heretical Cultivators slowly lurking towards the city wall where Lin Feng was stationed in the darkness of the night.

Seeing this, Lin Feng's heart tightened, and he immediately shouted loudly to warn everyone: "Everyone be careful, the Heretical Cultivators are coming!"

Following Lin Feng's shout, the Cultivators stationed with Lin Feng looked towards the distant night.

These Cultivators did not have Lin Feng's Dharma Eye, so they naturally didn't notice anything.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Huang Ruoxuan's figure flashed and appeared beside Lin Feng.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator's Divine Sense could detect up to a hundred miles.

She only paused for a moment here before sending out the signal of the Heretical Path's attack and ordering all Cultivators to prepare for battle.

Those Cultivators on rotation also emerged from their respective rest rooms to provide support.

When Huang Ruoxuan sent out the attack signal, the Cultivators present understood that Lin Feng had not been lying earlier.

At this, many Cultivators became nervous.

Some of these Cultivators had experienced battles, while others had not.

All Cultivators stood ready, but many were also extremely nervous at this moment.

The Heretical Cultivators had just covered more than half the distance when they saw Huang Ruoxuan send out a distress signal, knowing they had been discovered.

However, this group of Heretical Cultivators did not retreat; instead, they rushed to the foot of Qianmen Pass city wall at an extremely fast speed.

The thirty-foot city wall was no obstacle to these Cultivators.

They saw Heretical Cultivators, including Huang Ruoxuan, in the area guarded by Foundation Establishment cultivators, agilely climbing the city wall one by one.

Lin Feng saw Huang Ruoxuan fly onto the city wall, form a hand seal, and unleash a ten-meter-long flame attack towards the Heretical Cultivators climbing the wall.

Immediately, two or three Qi Refining Cultivators, unable to dodge in time, were engulfed by the flames.

Just as Huang Ruoxuan was about to launch another attack, a charming female Cultivator with a beauty mark on her face flew into the sky and chuckled at Huang Ruoxuan: "Fellow Daoist, what kind of skill is it to bully a Junior?

If you have the ability, come and spar with me."

As she spoke, a crescent moon scimitar, which was actually a Spiritual Artifact, appeared in her hand.

Under the female Cultivator's control, it attacked Huang Ruoxuan, the crescent moon scimitar streaking like a meteor towards Huang Ruoxuan.

Lin Feng no longer paid attention to Huang Ruoxuan's battle.

Instead, he took out numerous Talismans and shot them towards the section of the city wall he was guarding.

The Talismans transformed into various Daoist Magic attacks in mid-air.

On the section of the city wall Lin Feng was defending, his figure moved agilely, continuously attacking the Qi Refining Cultivators below who were trying to ascend.

In just a short while, three Heretical Qi Refining Cultivators were accidentally killed by Lin Feng.

However, because there were many enemy Cultivators, those Cultivators around Lin Feng did not have Lin Feng's methods.

Even with the support of Cultivators on rotation, Cultivators still managed to climb the city wall one by one in their defensive area and charged at them.

Although no Cultivators successfully climbed the section of the city wall where Lin Feng was, the Cultivators next to him were not effective.

Two Qi Refining Cultivators, one Middle Stage and one Late Stage, rushed over from their side and charged towards Lin Feng.

Lin Feng had a Middle Stage Cultivator come to support him.

At this moment, there was no time for hesitation.

Lin Feng immediately had him help block the Middle Stage Qi Refining Cultivator, while he would deal with the Late Stage Cultivator charging at him.

The Cultivator charging at Lin Feng was a Late Stage Qi Refining Cultivator, with a fierce and menacing expression.

After sticking a golden light Talisman on himself, he reached Lin Feng's side with a few leaps.

Lin Feng showed no politeness towards such a suicidal Cultivator.

He immediately unleashed more than ten Talismans at once, shooting them towards the burly man.

Seeing Lin Feng unleash more than ten Talismans at once, the burly man's previously fierce expression showed a hint of panic.

He secretly thought to himself that Lin Feng had too many Talismans.

He had come because he thought Lin Feng had run out of Talismans after seeing him use them to kill his comrades below this section of the city wall, but he didn't realize he had kicked an iron plate, and his face immediately fell.

At this point, it was clearly too late to run.

He could only try his best to dodge Lin Feng's Talisman attacks, but no matter how he dodged the Daoist Magic attacks formed by more than ten Talismans, he only managed to avoid most of them.

He was instantly submerged by the Daoist Magic, and then his defensive shield was also broken by Lin Feng's Talismans.

Just as he was about to attack Lin Feng again...

The burly man did not notice that a Silver Shadow Leopard had already arrived beside him under the cover of night and pounced on him, biting his neck.

It was a pity that this burly man was killed by Lin Feng's swift and decisive methods before he even had a chance to fight Lin Feng and use his full strength.
