"Hey! Don't you want revenge anymore?" Xiao Yefeng asked.
"Revenge! That's right, I will avenge my wife and son, and all my enemies! And I will do it myself!" Zhu Feng said, looking at the blood that continued to drip.
"With your current state? I might have acknowledged a slight possibility with the you from just now!" Xiao Yefeng replied.
"You don't understand, I will soon meet Chieko and my son, and you will soon be killed by the immortal. Does that count as revenge for us?" Zhu Feng said weakly. How could he not be weak? He was already an old man, and for some reason, he had become so emaciated. Just think about how much blood he had lost; after such a long time, he was nearly done for. The only thing keeping him alive was his spiritual energy.
"Immortal? Are you crazy?" Xiao Yefeng said.
At that moment, Zitong revealed a hint of confusion above Xiao Yefeng's head. It seemed there was something he remembered but couldn't quite grasp clearly. Looking at the flowing blood, Zitong pondered for a moment before saying, "This is bad; he's telling the truth! Look at what's beneath his feet!"
Zitong's tone changed, clearly indicating that the battle-crazed individual had reappeared. Xiao Yefeng turned to look and was shocked to find that Zhu Feng's blood wasn't just flowing randomly on the ground; it was forming a strange talisman.
"What is this?" Xiao Yefeng asked in confusion.
"This is a Spirit Summoning Talisman. Are there still people on Earth who can accept such talismans?" Zitong wondered aloud.
"Spirit Summoning Talisman? What—" Before Xiao Yefeng could finish, Zhu Feng collapsed, and the blood on the ground had completely formed into shape. With a flash of light, all of Zhu Feng's True Spirit Realm spiritual energy attached itself to the talisman. A deep cough echoed from above, followed by a voice saying, "The holder of the Divination Compass actually used such means. It seems there are indeed formidable foes in the human realm! You may leave; considering how hard it is to cultivate, if you don't touch anything on this person, I will let you go!"
Perhaps Zhu Feng never imagined that sacrificing his life would lead to such an outcome. At this moment, Xiao Yefeng was also somewhat bewildered. What was going on? Was this powerful aura truly from another strong being still existing on Earth? This presence was more than twice as strong as the President; if the President was a peak expert, then this person must be one of the few remaining pinnacle figures on Earth.
If Zhu Feng was associated with Young Master Jie from their realm, then this person must also be part of those supporting restoration. But what did that mean? Did forcing Zhu Feng—a True Spirit Late Stage individual—to take his own life not matter to this great figure?
However, Xiao Yefeng knew he wasn't a match for them but couldn't appear too timid either. He clasped his hands together and said, "Senior! Do you know about the crisis surrounding the Divination Compass?"
The talisman drawn in blood on the ground flickered with inspiration, and soon an aged voice replied, "Naturally, I know. If we win, we restore everything; if we lose, we destroy all beings!"
"Then why would you choose to gamble with the lives of billions on Earth?" Xiao Yefeng directly questioned.
The unexpectedly aged voice showed no anger or emotional change, instead stating directly, "That's not bad, but someone has to strive for it. A new era will replace the old one in accordance with the will of the times, yet no one from the old era can resist! I know you are the Lord of the Underworld; otherwise, you wouldn't have defeated this person so quickly. However, this is a matter of our realm, and I hope you fellows will refrain from getting involved!"
Xiao Yefeng's response ignited the flames of conflict between the two sides. He directly replied, "Senior, your words are also valid. As you said, someone must strive for it. You are striving to restore a past that cannot return, while I am striving for a brighter future that many people anticipate!"
After saying this, Xiao Yefeng and Ling Kong drew symbols, and a Golden Cyan Talisman merged into the Talisman on the ground. Blood instantly bubbled up, and the old man's voice continued, "Those who change the times will always face controversy. I shall be the sinner pointed at by thousands! As long as we can restore the Cultivation Civilization!"
The Spirit Talisman that Xiao Yefeng and Ling Kong had drawn was a means to dispel the Talisman; however, compared to the Talisman on the ground, it was effective yet minimal. This unknown powerful Geomancer forcefully distorted the surrounding Feng Shui Earth Qi, causing Xiao Yefeng to lose control over the surrounding Qi. In an instant, the empty ground transformed into a Brilliant Tiger that roared and charged at Xiao Yefeng.
It was fast—too fast for Xiao Yefeng to evade. Although Zitong's spear managed to intercept it momentarily, Zitong was sent flying back into the Black Gold Spirit Banner. The sensation was somewhat akin to that of a Spirit Tool. In that instant, Zitong's Eerie Energy was directly shattered by the Earth Spirit Energy. Left with no choice, Zitong could only use the Black Gold Spirit Banner to absorb the dissipating Ghost Body and return to it.
Xiao Yefeng could not dodge at all. Thanks to Zitong's slight obstruction, he gained a bit of time. However, just as he took a step back, the tiger's claw was already swiping toward him. In a critical moment, Xiao Yefeng's reflexes were pushed to their limits as he forcefully moved sideways. At that instant, a violent surge triggered his Gene Warrior genes to activate fully; intricate scales appeared on his skin as sharp claws extended from his limbs, especially prominent on his shoulders where the scales stood out.
With a loud crack!
A crisp sound echoed as all the scales on Xiao Yefeng's shoulder shattered. He was sent flying by the Brilliant Tiger's massive paw and crashed onto the soft ground several meters away before finally coming to a stop. His right shoulder's scales were completely destroyed; although his bones remained intact, his muscles were on the verge of tearing apart. A chilling aura emanated from the wound—clearly indicating that this powerful being possessed water attributes. Most critically, Xiao Yefeng felt that his Qi could not heal his shoulder injury.
The Qi of this formidable opponent was too strong; Xiao Yefeng's True Spirit Energy was insufficient against this Primordial Energy. Upon closer inspection, he noticed frost forming at his right shoulder wound and that he had completely lost feeling in his right arm. However, there were pros and cons; due to the accumulation of frost at the wound, it had stopped bleeding—but what good did that do?
The Brilliant Tiger exhaled icy breath as it approached Xiao Yefeng. With his right arm entirely powerless, Xiao Yefeng had lost half of his strength. At this moment, the Brilliant Tiger raised its right paw and swept toward Xiao Yefeng's throat—one wrong move could lead to death. This elder truly was fierce; for the first time, Xiao Yefeng felt such despair as images of his friends flashed before him.
He had not avenged his parents' deaths; Liu Team's wishes remained unfulfilled; Liu Yiyi's Yin Jue Vein had not been resolved; far away in the West, Consort Mi still awaited an answer from him! With so many unfinished desires, Xiao Yefeng refused to accept dying like this!
Just then, a burst of white light suddenly rose from the Spirit Platform. The white light shone brightly enough for Zhao Yin Gate to retreat in fear. This white light gradually enveloped Xiao Yefeng from within outward; when the Brilliant Tiger struck down with its paw, it was repelled by the white light instead—its claw shattered upon impact while the elder controlling it looked on in confusion.
Above them in the battlefield sky, white light illuminated above Xiao Yefeng’s head as a familiar voice resonated: "Child, what happened? Your older brother has long since passed; stick with me and I guarantee you will outlive your Xiao Family’s lifespan!"
Hearing that familiar, somewhat cynical voice, Xiao Yefeng realized that his life had been spared!
At that moment, the voice from the fierce tiger echoed, “Who are you? There is no presence as strong as yours in this realm, nor do I sense you among the Western Gods. Who exactly are you?”
Someone who could repel him with a single blow had appeared, yet he knew nothing about this person. Even the realm felt a bit agitated. At this time, Cheap Brother said, “You don’t need to worry about who I am. I’m not interested in your affairs. There’s no such thing as right or wrong; who can truly understand what you think is wrong? Is it not just fate? So no one truly masters the Dao; you people are merely those who possess great power!”
“Arrogant! This child has offended the authority of our realm and must be severely punished!” the fierce tiger declared.
“I’ve long since passed that point. He is my brother; even if he were killed, it wouldn’t matter to me. However, if you all interfere, don’t blame me for taking action!” Cheap Brother replied.
“Then I’ll kill you first!” With that, Brilliant Tiger let out a roar and unleashed a blast of cold air aimed directly at Xiao Yefeng. Just then, a flash of white light appeared, and a pristine Shield manifested beside Xiao Yefeng, blocking the icy wind entirely. Instead of destroying Xiao Yefeng’s body, the cold air was deflected by the Shield and crashed into the abandoned warehouse behind him.
The attack from Earth Spirit Energy and Earth Qi destroyed most of the warehouse, showcasing Brilliant Tiger's immense power. However, what followed made Xiao Yefeng truly understand the meaning of being outmatched.
A humanoid figure formed from white light brushed past Brilliant Tiger, who bared his sharp teeth and lunged for the throat of the figure made of light. At that moment, an eight-foot-long spear of white light descended from above and pierced through Brilliant Tiger’s head. The spear penetrated from the top of his skull to his jaw and was driven into the ground, causing Brilliant Tiger to vanish like cotton blown away by the wind.
In an instant, he transformed into a gentle breeze and disappeared from sight. The spear bore a blood-red Talisman, formed from Zhu Feng's coagulated blood. At that moment, a voice emerged from the Talisman: “So it’s you!” Then with a tremor, the spear shook, and the Talisman dissipated along with the old man’s voice.
Xiao Yefeng struggled to stand up, glancing at the white light above him and then at the towering spear embedded in the ground. If it weren’t for the presence of this spear and the frost crystals on his right arm, he would have thought that everything just now was merely an illusion from a movie. The weakness in his right arm proved their reality; there were indeed Extraordinary Persons capable of turning the world upside down still existing on Earth!
