The Unique Feng Shui Master
Having slain his greatest enemy, Robert laughed. However, he suddenly realized something was amiss. How could Xiao Yefeng's Yin-Yang Sword have vanished? That was an absolute divine weapon, a legacy left on Earth by the Guardians. As long as the Earth existed, the Yin-Yang Sword would not disappear!
Could it be? With a thought in his mind, his body moved instinctively. He turned around to look behind him, and finding nothing there gave him a moment of relief. Yet, just as he felt reassured, a bone-chilling coldness crept up from behind him.
"Boom!" A loud explosion echoed through the night sky as a tri-colored light of gold, blue, and green illuminated the darkness. Robert was struck in the back by Xiao Yefeng's palm, flying over thirty meters before crashing into countless rocks and finally embedding himself into a large boulder.
Silence reigned; it was eerily quiet. Whether it was the tattered Xiao Yefeng or Robert embedded in the rock, the boulder that had trapped Robert finally shattered into pieces due to the severity of the impact. Without support, Robert staggered and stood unsteadily in place.
"Hah, I knew you wouldn't die so easily!" Robert swayed as he gripped his Ink Python Short Sword, blood dripping from its tip. After being struck in the back by Xiao Yefeng's punch, his internal organs had already been damaged and displaced. In other words, he was already dead; he just relied on his formidable cultivation to seal off his last breath. As long as his breath remained, his spirit would not perish!
Achieving this required not only immense power but also overwhelming hatred—both of which he possessed!
"Cough... cough... cough..."
Coughing sounds escaped Robert's lips, occasionally spitting out fragments of internal organs. However, Xiao Yefeng had no intention of fighting with someone on the brink of death. Yet at that moment, an aura emanating from Robert enveloped them both in a semi-circular barrier. Clearly, unless one of them lost their strength, this barrier would not dissipate.
"I've long since passed the Church's destruction; your hatred toward me is meaningless. The Pope Emeritus was killed by Xius; that has nothing to do with me. Why are you opposing me?" Xiao Yefeng said calmly upon realizing he could not escape.
"Whether it's true or false doesn't matter to me anymore! I sealed my last breath just to settle this life-and-death battle with you!" With that declaration, a mass of indistinct black energy floated out from his Spirit Platform. Upon seeing this, Xiao Yefeng exclaimed in surprise, "You severed your Cycle of Reincarnation; you have no future now!"
"I don't need one!" The black energy dispersed and was absorbed by Robert. At that moment, the shadow within the black mist was forcibly twisted into a vague figure. Seeing this scene, Xiao Yefeng remarked lightly, "Severing your escape route only leads to being exploited; God of Sorcery, your manipulation of humanity is impressive!"
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, Guardian! Time is running short; I must thank you for turning Earth into a colony for more warriors!" the figure replied.
"Hah! You are so arrogant before me; are you still like this in your Dimension? You oppress Low-Level Dimensions while merely being a long-suffering existence yourself!" Xiao Yefeng retorted.
"You—" It seemed that God of Sorcery had touched a nerve and stopped responding to Xiao Yefeng.
"Kill!" An overwhelming hatred erupted from Robert's body. Despite being nearly shattered himself, Robert surpassed Xiao Yefeng's speed and intercepted him first, reaching out to grasp directly at Xiao Yefeng's heart!
Just as the blood-red hand was about to touch Xiao Yefeng's chest, a Bagua Mirror, summoned by Inspiration, floated above his head. The mirror shimmered from all directions, and a Bagua Talisman formed a rune shield that deflected the claw. In an instant, the Yin-Yang Sword flipped and slashed toward Robert's throat!
At that moment, Robert was too preoccupied with his injuries to care. The intense physical exertion had caused the wounds he had suppressed to erupt. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he managed to use his collarbone to block the Yin-Yang Sword, preventing Xiao Yefeng from withdrawing it.
In that instant, the Ink Python Short Sword finally emerged in Robert's hand. Like a Wasp Sting, he saved his killing move for last. With one half of his severed collarbone locking the Yin-Yang Sword in place and his left hand gripping the rune shield, Robert finally drew his lethal strike!
The raised Ink Python Short Sword glimmered with light, and Xiao Yefeng almost saw the shadow of the God of Sorcery within it. Lacking a Violet Inner Armor for protection, Xiao Yefeng possessed even sharper treasures. The chilling intent locked onto him, rendering him unable to move. However, since it was a barrier, it could not withstand the Purple Gold Ring. Channeling spiritual energy into it, purple light flashed as Xiao Yefeng vanished from the locked barrier!
Xiao Yefeng's sudden disappearance stunned Robert, who controlled the God of Sorcery. Realizing something was amiss, he turned to strike behind him. However, this long-prepared sword strike landed in empty air within Liao Kong and lost its power due to lack of support. At that moment, Xiao Yefeng broke through the barrier again using the Purple Gold Ring and reappeared behind Robert, piercing through his skull with the Yin-Yang Sword.
Robert's strength dissipated like air escaping from a punctured balloon. Just then, the Bagua Mirror above Xiao Yefeng flashed brightly; the Yin-Yang Sword slipped from his control and was manipulated by the Bagua Mirror instead. A fierce sword aura swept through the void, and with a crack sound, a newly appeared black giant python was sliced in half by the sword energy, transforming into an ordinary Black Python Belt.
A mournful cry echoed in the void as the God of Sorcery exclaimed, "Guardian! You will regret this! The Blue Star is mine!"
With that declaration, everything around vanished, leaving only a pale-faced Xiao Yefeng standing there. On the ground lay Robert's corpse and the severed Black Python Belt. Xiao Yefeng quickly took out three white jade pills from his ring and swallowed them. Although he hadn't expended much energy, he sensed three figures rapidly approaching—definitely Lu Zhan and two others.
Xiao Yefeng knew he needed to recover his strength quickly for what lay ahead. Aside from the unexpected appearance of the God of Sorcery at the end of battle, everything else had been under his control. After taking the pills, he swiftly departed just as three figures arrived: Lu Zhan, Steel Armor, and a person clad in black robes.
"Robert is dead!" Steel Armor exclaimed in surprise.
"Xiao Yefeng is still Xiao Yefeng! While we've grown during these years of silence, so has he! The battle just ended; he's surely still nearby! Cold Front! Go find him! Steel Armor will ensure your safety!" Lu Zhan commanded.
At that moment, none of them bothered to collect Robert's body or even glance at the scattered fragments of Violet Inner Armor or the severed Black Python Belt. Following orders, Cold Front discarded his black robe; muscles bulged and his form shifted into that of a beastman with long reddish-brown hair covered in fur. It was clear he had canine genes but was not an ordinary specimen. As a Beastified being with an exceptionally developed nose and ears, he sniffed around before shaking his head slightly and saying, "He's not here!"
"Damn it! Did he escape?" Lu Zhan frowned.
Unbeknownst to them, Xiao Yefeng had no intention of leaving just yet. He was currently perched atop a massive tree in the distance beneath layers of Symbol Bone. His recovery speed was astonishingly fast; he had completely regained his expended strength. Although he knew he should choose to leave now, Xiao Yefeng did not want to miss this opportunity—previous attempts to kill Lu Zhan had all ended with him escaping!
This time, Xiao Yefeng was determined not to let this chance slip away!
He stowed away the Spirit Hidden Jade Tablet before activating it once more. In an instant, a faint aura leaked out. Cold Front paused for a moment before gently sniffing several times and then said, "No! He's still here; just now I sensed his presence briefly before it vanished again—he must be injured! He hasn't gone far; we must have forced him into hiding!"
"Alright! Cold Front! Keep searching, Steel Armor must protect him!" The three of them rushed toward the location where Xiao Yefeng was.
Minutes passed, and Cold Front finally lost the scent, helplessly saying, "It's somewhere in this area, but I don't know where it's hiding!"
"Damn it!" After a furious curse, Lu Zhan heard a rustling above him. He stepped forward and shot into the air like a rocket, flames engulfing the treetops, yet there was no one there!
Just as he was fuming over being played again, he saw a figure suddenly appear behind Cold Front. Seeing this, Lu Zhan shouted, "Steel Armor, protect the right flank!"
Steel Armor reacted quickly, raising his massive axe to shield Cold Peak from behind. However, to their surprise, there was no attack felt. Lu Zhan was also taken aback because when the giant axe swung, the gust it created blew away the figure!
"What the—!" Cold Peak was about to ask when a scream pierced the air. He looked down to see a silver needle with a blue gem embedded in its tail lodged in his chest. The needle had pierced through his heart before he could even finish his cry, and he collapsed onto Steel Armor.
"What happened?!" Steel Armor exclaimed in shock as he reached out to catch the falling Cold Front. All he grasped was the still-warm corpse. Letting go, he placed Cold Front's body on the ground and swung his giant axe behind him in a crescent arc. The golden wind blade carved a deep gash into the rock several meters away, but it struck nothing!
"What's going on? What do we do?!" Steel Armor roared. The inexplicable death of Cold Front left him on edge as he gripped his axe tightly and scanned their surroundings.
Meanwhile, standing atop the treetops illuminated by the firelight, Lu Zhan clenched his fist and declared, "Xiao Yefeng, I know you're nearby! Sneaking around isn't your style! Come out and fight me! Don't you want to eliminate me as a threat?"
His words ignited a murderous impulse in the hidden Xiao Yefeng; however, Xiao Yefeng was no fool. Steel Armor's defensive capabilities were too formidable, and their combined strength would be greater than the sum of its parts. Yet it was Lu Zhan's next words that made Xiao Yefeng abandon any thoughts of waiting.
