Ning Ba Tian
The young man with a big beard showed off his excellent swordsmanship, and the Shadow Panther he was fighting had already been cut off one of its front paws. Desperately, it launched a storm of slashing techniques at him. However, the young man's footwork was equally impressive, and the Shadow Panther's spiritual technique couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.
In just two or three moves, the middle-aged man and the big-bearded young man almost simultaneously defeated the Wuying Jiao they were fighting against, and began to assist the most endangered members of the other two groups.
With the strength of two people, they quickly controlled the situation against the early-stage Wú Yǐng Liǎo. The middle-aged man was after all highly skilled and solved the battle against Wú Yǐng Liǎo first, then turned to face the last remaining demon beast.
Soon, the bearded young man also shot and killed the opponent's Wuying Diaolong. Seeing that the middle-aged man had already taken the upper hand, he no longer participated in the battle and took out the medicinal pellets from his storage bag to start busily treating the wounded personnel.
The middle-aged man was under no pressure against the Wuying Diang in the mid-term of the war, and he was seriously injured in just over a dozen breaths. The Lingji emitted by the dying Wuying Diang had already become extremely weak.
A middle-aged man sprang up and swung his sword down at the neck of the shadowy weasel.
Just then, something unexpected happened.
Three arrows shot out from the dense forest, shining like flowing light. The reflected light of the arrows was clearly that of heavenly artifact arrows.
One arrow shot at the throat of a middle-aged man, one shot at his heart, and the third shot at his dantian.
At this time, a middle-aged man was about to strike and kill the shadowless weasel with one sword. It was the most relaxed moment when suddenly something unexpected happened, leaving him momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Adding that three heavenly device arrows were clearly shot by a master archer in the condensation period, even if they were prepared in advance, it would be difficult to avoid.
In a moment of crisis, the middle-aged man was extremely calm and dodged two arrows in a row. However, he failed to completely dodge the third arrow, which pierced his waist and left a hole.
Fortunately, he didn't suffer any fatal injuries. The middle-aged man had just let out a sigh of relief when a tingling sensation suddenly spread throughout his body.
"Despicable! You've even poisoned the arrowheads!" The middle-aged man cursed loudly in indignation.
"Not using a deadly poison, how can we deal with this master of the Eightfold Concentration?" A group of twelve people walked out of the dense forest, led by a middle-aged man in blue clothes.
"Lin Feng, you're despicable! There were only some minor frictions between our two teams, how could you resort to such a vicious move?" The middle-aged man asked loudly while taking out an antidote and consuming it.
"You don't have to waste the elixir either, the arrow is coated with the venom of a three-headed python, you only have five breaths left." The man in blue sneered at the middle-aged man.
"Why did you... poison... him..." Before Lin Feng could respond, the middle-aged man had already breathed his last.
"Captain! Captain! You won't die, speak!"
"Captain, you said you would personally teach me swordsmanship, how can you die?"
"Captain, you still owe me a meal! How can you die so easily?!"
The middle-aged man's squad now only has these three people and the bearded young man left, the other four have died from their injuries.
Originally, the four friends who had been together day and night all died at the same time. The three team members were already very sad, but now even the captain of the squad was killed, and the three people could no longer hold back their grief and burst into loud wailing.
"Why are you doing this? I suppose the group of shadowy weasels from earlier were also summoned by you, and you paid such a great price. I don't believe it's because of that little friction from before."
The young man with a big beard grasped the long sword in his hand to death, his eyes spouted fire, and he suppressed his grief and indignation, asking coldly.
"Ning Batian, you're indeed the smartest. Your guess wasn't wrong, the Shadow Weasel group earlier was prepared by us. How is it? Is it delicious?" Lin Feng looked at Ning Batian with a smug and self-satisfied expression, as if he had succeeded in his scheme.
"That little friction before, how could it be worth our spending so much money and energy to calculate you. Could Lin Fengdong only have such a big temper? You and Ling Ge Hong did things last month, thinking they were very secret, but in fact, they were already in my grasp. Let you enjoy a peaceful life for more than a month, you are making rapid progress, but I couldn't wait any longer." Lin Fengdong continued to say with a fierce expression.
"Surrender all items in the cave and I'll let you leave unharmed, otherwise none of you will survive!" Lin Feng threatened.
"How did you know? This secret isn't even known to all the members of our squad, how can you be so clear?" Ning Batian asked incredulously.
"You think Huang Feng from your team really went back to his hometown to visit his relatives, but in fact he has been controlled by me long ago. His three children are all in my hands, and he can't resist. However, you don't have to hate him anymore, he and his three children have been waiting for you in the Yellow Spring for a long time. I'm sure that after you meet, he will regret it very much." Lin Feng's face was full of sinister smile.
"Lin Feng Dong, I've never seen anyone as despicable as you. You will definitely not die a good death." Ning Ba Tian's eyes were bloodshot with rage and his tone was full of indignation.
"Thank you for the compliment, but I believe I will live longer than you." Lin Feng was not affected by Ning Baotian's anger and continued to say: "How about it, Ning Baotian? Hand over your storage bag, you can take your teammates and leave, we won't stop you. Otherwise, none of you will survive today, and I don't mind taking your storage bag myself."
At this time, Ning Batian suddenly took out a black and shiny bead from his storage bag, held it high, and said in a stern tone: "Let us go, or you will all die!"
"You think you can just grab a bead and intimidate us? I've seen it all, we're not easily scared. Be sensible and hand over the storage bag quietly, or you won't even have a chance to surrender." Although Lin Feng said this lightly, his left hand had already secretly taken out a defensive talisman, which he was gripping tightly in his palm, fully prepared for an all-out defense.
"Lin Feng, aren't you after what we obtained from Han Yang's cave? You've never seen this Gui Shui Yin Lei Pearl before, have you? Today, I'll let you witness something. This is the Gui Shui Yin Lei Pearl crafted by Han Yang using a second-grade spiritual thunder. Do you know what a second-grade spiritual thunder is? Even some seniors from the Ling Hu period may not be able to withstand it. Only someone like Han Yang, who is both a thunder cultivator and an alchemy master, can create a thunder pearl with a second-grade spiritual thunder." Ning Ba Tian had a confident look on his face.
"Ning Batian, stop pretending! If this were really a second-grade thunder pearl, you would have destroyed us long ago. Why bother talking to us so much? Your cunning plans are numerous, Ning Batian, but we're not inexperienced. You don't need to put on an act anymore, just surrender obediently!" Lin Fengdong said with an expression that seemed to see right through him.
"You said I'm inexperienced, and that's not wrong. I didn't expect the great Lin Feng to be so ignorant of even basic knowledge. You don't even know how terrifying the power of a second-grade spiritual thunder is, truly fearless due to ignorance. Today, I'll teach you a lesson, don't say such inexperienced things in the future."
