365: Each with his own agenda

Dai Yi sacrificed the Advanced defensive Magic Treasure, Two Instruments Rings, that he had in hand.

Just as he thought he could easily block the Soul-Devouring Bee Cloud Sword released by Mu Feng.

The previously scattered Flying Sword quickly gathered together, forming a giant black light sword several tens of meters long.

Green Qi swirled around the giant sword, its Aura magnificent.

Before its blade even struck, the Sword Qi alone, swirling around it, made Dai Yi feel his body tighten.

He was certainly no ordinary person to be able to Cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm in the treacherous Cave World.

Without thinking.

He directly abandoned the Two Instruments Rings for self-defense and dodged the sword's edge.

As soon as he finished.

The giant black light sword struck the Two Instruments Rings.

Boom!

Following a loud bang, his Advanced defensive Magic Treasure, Two Instruments Rings, directly shattered.

After cutting down Dai Yi's defensive Magic Treasure, the giant black light sword still didn't give up, still fiercely slashing towards where he had been, pulverizing the nearby rocks.

If he had trusted the Two Instruments Rings just now and hadn't dodged in time.

He probably wouldn't have died, but he definitely wouldn't have felt good.

"What a powerful Lifebound Treasure. It's also an Advanced Magic Treasure, yet it can directly break open my Two Instruments Rings."

Looking at the effect caused by the Soul-Devouring Bee Cloud Sword, Dai Yi was secretly shocked.

Generally speaking.

Among Magic Treasures of the same grade, defensive Magic Treasures are superior to offensive Magic Treasures.

It's possible for an offensive Magic Treasure of the same grade to break through the defense of a defensive Magic Treasure.

But to directly cut a defensive Magic Treasure into pieces, with its power still undiminished, let alone a Magic Treasure of the same rank, even one a rank higher would find it difficult to do.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it was true.

After a brief moment of surprise, he showed a look of pleasant surprise.

The stronger Mu Feng was, the greater the help he would be.

It seemed the original plan had to be changed.

However, before he could speak.

The handsome young man opposite, seeing that his attack missed, quickly tapped his fingers several times.

The giant black light sword immediately transformed into a sky full of sword rain, swarming towards him.

"Fellow Daoist, wait!"

"I have no hostility towards Fellow Daoist, why is Fellow Daoist attacking me?"

Dai Yi had no time to fight Mu Feng now; at this moment, he only wanted to escape quickly and let Mu Feng and Han Yuyan take the blame for him.

"Hehe, no hostility?"

"Fellow Daoist led the Devil Head behind him here, and then deliberately shouted to make him misunderstand that we are on the same side. Isn't that trying to shift the blame?"

Mu Feng hadn't spoken yet.

Han Yuyan, beside him, couldn't help but sneer first.

Seeing Han Yuyan expose his intentions.

Even with Dai Yi's extremely thick skin, he couldn't help but blush.

But he still argued.

"Fellow Daoists, you've misunderstood. This old man had no such idea. This old man was merely being pursued by this Devil Head, and seeing fellow Cultivators here, I came seeking to help fight the enemy together."

"I suppose you've also seen the Devil Head behind this old man. That fellow is precisely the terrifying Demon Race member who has been slaughtering our Human Race in recent days, and he also carries a heavy treasure. If we can take him down, the gains would be substantial."

As soon as they exchanged blows, Dai Yi saw Mu Feng's extraordinary nature.

He knew that Mu Feng's Realm might be lower, but his combat power might not be beneath his own.

After all, in the Cave World, Realm doesn't completely represent combat power. Possessing some powerful Magic Treasures, Divine Abilities, Spirit Pets, or Puppets can all enhance one's own combat power, thus allowing for the possibility of fighting above one's rank.

So, in order to curry favor with Mu Feng and Han Yuyan, he even lowered his status, addressing the two Core Formation Cultivators as Fellow Daoists despite being a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

His intention to curry favor was very obvious.

After seeing Mu Feng's combat power, he immediately revised his original plan, intending to let them actively attack and help him contend with the Ancient Demon.

To entice Mu Feng, he even revealed that the Ancient Demon carried a heavy treasure.

In his opinion, his words, coupled with his lowered status, would surely reduce Mu Feng and Han Yuyan's hostility.

"Hmph..."

Han Yuyan, on her side, naturally wouldn't believe the other party's nonsense and was about to sneer, but Mu Feng interrupted her first: "So that's how it is. It was our misunderstanding, Senior."

"I see that Devil Head seems to be a Nascent Soul Old Monster. We are merely Core Formation Cultivators. If we are to fight, please let Senior be the main force, and we two Juniors will assist from the side."

Originally, Han Yuyan was curious why Mu Feng interrupted her words.

As soon as she heard what he said, she immediately understood.

The clever her immediately echoed: "Please, Senior, personally fight him. We two Juniors will definitely assist you from the side!"

"Very well, this old man will meet that Devil Head in a moment. At that time, you two will help me deal with that fellow!"

Dai Yi heard Mu Feng, with just a few words, make him the main vanguard, and he couldn't help but feel angry, but he had a very deep scheme.

After his eyes darted around.

He surprisingly accepted Mu Feng's proposal with pleasure.

But in his heart, he was sneering endlessly.

"You want this old man to die for you? Dream on."

"As soon as that Devil Head engages with you, this old man will immediately..."

Boom boom boom!!!

While Dai Yi harbored ill intentions, the Ancient Demon, already not far behind him, arrived.

Without a word, it launched a fierce assault on Mu Feng and the two others.

When it heard Dai Yi shouting earlier, it thought the three of them were together.

But later, seeing Mu Feng attack Dai Yi and destroy the Magic Treasure on his body, it became curious about the relationship between the three.

However, before it could figure out what was going on, Mu Feng suddenly stopped and began talking and laughing with Dai Yi, forming a united front.

This made its already not-so-clever mind even more confused.

It had long heard that people of the Human Race were cunning and unpredictable, and today it had witnessed it.

Unable to figure it out, it was too lazy to think further.

Anyway, it saw that Mu Feng and Han Yuyan's Realm was only at the Core Formation level, and even if the three of them united, they would definitely not be its match.

So it simply launched an attack directly at the three of them.

As its arm waved, countless streams of Devilish Qi transformed into cannonballs, blasting towards the location of the three.

It intended to cripple Mu Feng and Han Yuyan, so it could directly deal with the Nascent Soul Old Man.

"Be careful, that Devilish Qi has the effect of disturbing one's mind, it's very troublesome. Don't let it contaminate you, otherwise, it will be like a maggot in the bone, devouring your Magic Power."

Dai Yi had fought this Ancient Demon before and knew the power of this move.

Seeing it used again, he also spoke to remind Mu Feng and Han Yuyan.

He wasn't being kind, but rather didn't want the two to lose their combat power before the battle even began.

If that happened, his plan would be in vain.

Actually, without his reminder, Mu Feng and Han Yuyan had already sacrificed their Magic Treasures to defend themselves before the Ancient Demon attacked.

A blue light flashed on Han Yuyan's body, and the sky full of Devilish Qi cannonballs were blocked outside.

The power of a defensive ancient treasure goes without saying.

Seeing that Han Yuyan, a mere Dan Formation Cultivator, could easily withstand the attacks of the Devilish Qi bombs with her Magic Treasure, Dai Yi's face showed a greedy expression.

With his eyesight, he naturally understood that Han Yuyan must have a top-tier defensive Magic Treasure on her.

It was even possible that it was an ancient treasure.

If he didn't still need Mu Feng and Han Yuyan's help, he might have even wanted to personally seize it.

If he had this treasure, his combat power would definitely increase by a lot.

"What a pity..."

Thinking that the two would soon perish here and that the ancient treasure might fall into the hands of the Devil Head, Dai Yi felt extremely regretful.

While he was lamenting Han Yuyan's protective Magic Treasure, Mu Feng on the other side also sacrificed his Magic Treasure to resist the Devilish Qi attack.

He reached into his hand, and a flower basket Magic Treasure appeared in his grasp.

As Magic Power was poured into it, the flower basket emitted a large amount of yellow light. The Devilish Qi, swept by the light, directly disappeared without a trace.

"What kind of Magic Treasure is this? How can it be so powerful?"

Seeing that Mu Feng's method of breaking the Devilish Qi was even easier than Han Yuyan's, Dai Yi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

He had personally experienced the Devilish Qi bombs.

Even Nascent Soul Cultivators like them wouldn't have an easy time against them.

Yet, he didn't expect Mu Feng to easily collect them like that.

This greatly astonished him.

"Could it be, another ancient treasure?!"

Dai Yi thought to himself.

He was naturally not unfamiliar with ancient treasures; as a Nascent Soul Old Monster, he also possessed an ancient treasure.

However, seeing Mu Feng and Han Yuyan take them out so easily.

He figured they must have more than one.

Greed surged in his heart.

"If I could seize them, dealing with this Devil Head might not be impossible..."

"Should I..."

Originally, he only wanted to escape, but after seeing Mu Feng and Han Yuyan's treasures, his mind became active again.

He thought that if he could get all of Mu Feng and Han Yuyan's treasures.

Then he might have the capital to confront this Devil Head head-on.

Thinking this way.

Dai Yi, while resisting the Devilish Qi attack, intentionally or unintentionally moved closer to Mu Feng's side.

However, it seemed his thoughts were detected.

Seeing him approach, the two also slowly moved away.

This made Dai Yi anxious and angry.

But at the moment, he still needed Mu Feng and Han Yuyan's help, so he couldn't openly reveal his intentions.

Moreover, he also knew that Mu Feng's combat power was not weak.

If he directly attacked to seize them, he might backfire.

It was better to let the Devil Head weaken the two first.

He would then play the fisherman, taking everything.

In his opinion, no matter how powerful Mu Feng was, he was still just a Core Formation Cultivator, with limited Magic Power. After being dealt with by this Devil Head, he definitely wouldn't last long.

"Hmph, old fox..."

On the other side, Mu Feng saw Dai Yi's eyes darting around, and how could he not know his ill intentions?

The reason he hadn't erupted yet was also because he wanted to use Dai Yi's strength to help deal with this Ancient Demon.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have stopped.

After all, fighting two Nascent Soul Cultivators simultaneously, no matter how powerful he was, he would have no chance of winning.

So he also made do, pulling Dai Yi over to let him exert the main effort.

He and Han Yuyan would wait for an opportunity.

Now seeing Dai Yi's appearance, he became even more wary of him.

The light from the Treasure Dropping Flower Basket in his hand also slowly shrank, conserving Magic Power.

At the same time, giving the other party the illusion that his Magic Power was running low.

Showing weakness to the enemy, and then striking with thunderous force, the probability of success should increase significantly.

Boom boom boom!

After a series of explosions, finding that the three were all safe and sound.

The Ancient Demon also knew that this move was ineffective against the three, so it retracted its arms.

However, before the three could catch their breath.

Its three heads and six eyes opened.

A large amount of demonic light once again assaulted the three.

This demonic light was even more difficult to deal with than the previous Devilish Qi bombs.

Not only was its speed incredibly fast, but its power was also superior.

Mu Feng's Treasure Dropping Flower Basket's light was still at ease when facing the Devilish Qi bombs, but facing this demonic light attack, it was already struggling to cope.

He immediately said: "Senior, this Junior is almost unable to hold on. Please quickly make a move to interrupt his skill, otherwise, we won't be able to help Senior deal with that Devil Head together later."

He actually still had some defensive methods he hadn't used.

If he wanted, as long as he released the imitation Spirit Treasure Vajra Shield on his body, let alone this demonic light, even more powerful Spells could be easily resisted.

However, he knew Dai Yi harbored ill intentions, so it was naturally impossible to expose too many things to him.

"Good, this old man will make a move now!"

Dai Yi originally wanted to slack off and use the Ancient Demon's power to weaken Mu Feng and Han Yuyan further, but seeing Mu Feng speak.

He naturally couldn't pretend any longer.

Moreover, he also knew the power of this demonic light.

So he only hesitated for a moment before making a decisive move.

"Go!"

Dai Yi patted his Storage Ring, and a Jade Ruyi appeared in his hand.

After a soft incantation, the Ruyi transformed into a two-headed giant wolf, pouncing and biting towards the Ancient Demon in the distance.

The Ancient Demon had fought Dai Yi and four others before, and it understood some of his methods.

It knew the power of this two-headed giant wolf.

Seeing it charge over, it dared not underestimate it.

It could only stop the demonic light attacking Mu Feng and Han Yuyan, and with a sweep of its six arms, several Magic Treasures emitting faint wisps of bloody Qi appeared in its hands.

"This is, a Demon Artifact?"

"No, it's a Demon Treasure!"

Mu Feng already had a Demon Artifact in his hand, so when he saw the Ancient Demon take out those few Magic Treasures, he immediately recognized them.

However, the Aura of the few Magic Treasures in the Ancient Demon's hand seemed even more vigorous than his Demon Artifact.

So it was highly possible that they were not Demon Artifacts, but Demon Treasures, which were even more powerful than Demon Artifacts.

Whether it was a Demon Artifact or a Demon Treasure, these items would have no side effects for the Ancient Demon.

And their power would be three points stronger.

If one was not careful, they might perish here.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect you, a Core Formation Junior, to have some knowledge!"

The Ancient Demon looked at Mu Feng in surprise.

But its actions were not slow at all.

With a gentle flick, the Demon Treasures in its hand transformed into several-foot-long axes, halberds, hooks, and forks.

As soon as the Demon Treasures appeared.

The two-headed giant wolf, transformed from the Jade Ruyi, immediately seemed insufficient.

After a few swings, it was beaten and fled in disarray.

After dealing with the two-headed giant wolf, the Devil Head's figure flickered.

It disappeared directly into the air.

Mu Feng and Han Yuyan had previously seen it continuously cast Spells for attack, thinking it was only powerful at long range.

They didn't expect its speed to be so fast.

After discovering its disappearance, their expressions also changed drastically.

He, who originally wanted to hide some of his strength, no longer dared to conceal it.

He transformed.

Directly turning into several tens of himself.

This move was precisely the Spell Divine Ability, Phantom Clone, that he learned from the Silver-Winged Yaksha.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

As soon as Mu Feng's Clones appeared, the axes, halberds, hooks, and forks in the Ancient Demon's hand continuously pounded them.

Its speed was incredibly fast; half of Mu Feng's dozens of Clones disappeared instantly.

Fortunately, it wasn't attacking Mu Feng alone at the same time.

Instead, it launched an attack against all three of them.

Otherwise, it might have been able to clear all his Clones in an instant.
