Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 379 Time Bomb
Hong Li immediately noticed Hong Yi's unusual behavior and reached out to grab him, but as the sandstorm surged in like a tidal wave, the four of them were swept away.

"you dare!"

Hong Li let out a low roar, his figure becoming ethereal, appearing behind Hong Yi like a graceful phantom, moving with incredible speed, almost like teleportation.

Hong Li was only half a meter away from Hong Yi at this moment. He thrust out his right hand like an arrow, and the air made a piercing whistling sound.

Sensing the movement behind her, Hong Yi turned around slightly. Facing Hong Li's angry and threatening gaze, she sneered, clenched her right fist, and sand surged, creating a sand wall between the two of them.

"Chase!"

Blocked by the sand, Hong Li roared loudly.

The other three members of the Hong clan had arrived by this time. They split up and chased after Hong Yi from different directions, but sand walls kept appearing in front of them.

The scattered sand along the way sprang out like venomous snakes, constantly attacking them and even wrapping around their feet. Even if they managed to break free, it severely hampered their speed.

"Flying to the heavens".

At this moment, Hong Li and the other three seemed to realize that they could not catch up with the spirit medium on the ground. Therefore, except for Hong Li, the other three flapped their spiritual wings and flew into the sky to chase after Hong Yi.

Hong Yi did not stop walking; he slightly raised his head and waved his hand.

"Hey!"

A piercing sound of air being torn apart rang out, and sand flew into the sky like bullets. The three members of the Hong clan either dodged quickly or released defensive soul skills.

The sudden outbreak of battle drew everyone's attention. The unusual sand attack, in particular, caused many to frown, as if they had figured something out.

"sand?"

Lin Feng was originally chasing the team of supernatural beings, but he quickly noticed the sudden outbreak of battle and abruptly stopped.

"what happened?"

Seeing Lin Feng stop, Yun Tianqi and the others also stopped and asked in confusion.

Lin Feng did not respond, and following his gaze, everyone understood.

"sand!"

Zhan Tianyu asked in surprise.

Monsters with the ability to control sand are very rare, numbering no more than five. The most famous of them is the Heavenly Ranking Monster, Shami, which had just appeared in the capital not long ago.

Although there was no close contact, the power of the Heavenly Ranking Beasts still left a deep impression on everyone.

"Is it a medium from the Hong clan?"

Zhan Tianyu looked at Yang Ningbing beside him and asked in confusion.

"Most likely, those people are from the Hong clan!"

Yang Ningbing looked at Hong Li. She didn't recognize the other three, but she remembered Hong Li.

Two years ago, she accompanied her grandfather to visit the Hong family and met Hong Li once.

Although Hong Li was wearing a hooded robe, seemingly trying to conceal his identity, he could not avoid revealing part of his face during the battle.

"How could a medium be in the Chaotic Land?"

Zhan Tianyu looked at Hong Yi.

Clearly, this chubby girl is the medium of the Hong clan.

As members of the ten great families of the capital, Zhan Tianyu and Yang Ningbing had a better understanding of this Heavenly Ranking Beast, and they knew how important this spirit medium was to the Hong family.

They were unsure of the medium's combat strength, but even if it was strong, under the condition of suppressing its power, it wouldn't be much different from them, so there was absolutely no need to put the medium at risk.

"She seems to be running in our direction?" Yang Ningbing asked, somewhat puzzled.

However, it was clear that the girl could not succeed.

The demonic beast sealed within Hong Yi's body is a Heavenly Ranking demonic beast, whose strength surpasses that of most royal-level demonic beasts.

As a medium, she can borrow the power of a novice monk and possess the ability to control sand.

She is very strong, with powerful control and attacks, and even more so, her defense is formidable, leaving no weakness in her.

However, she did not seem to know any martial arts skills, nor had she absorbed any soul skills, so she was not fast and could not fly. Without the strength to overwhelm her and without anyone to cooperate with her, she was quickly surrounded by Hong Li and the other three.

At this moment, she was still more than ten meters away from Lin Feng and his group.

"Don't make me do it!"

Hong Li's face was somewhat grim at this moment; he had not expected Hong Yi to suddenly riot.

This action has already attracted a lot of attention.

The way sand attacks has likely already raised suspicions among many.

If this matter is truly as Hong Yi said, the impact would be too great if it got out, and even the Hong clan would not be able to bear it.

"They want to detonate..."

Faced with the encirclement, Hong Yi did not want to suffer any more trouble and gave up resisting. However, just before her hands were about to be bound, she suddenly shouted at Lin Feng and his group, but before she could finish speaking, someone covered her mouth.

"Well!"

Hong Yi struggled frantically, but to no avail. At this moment, her eyes revealed a trace of helplessness and despair!

"It seems they really are looking for us!" Lin Feng said slowly.

Zhan Tianyu looked at Hong Yi and said seriously, "No matter what they want from us, it's best to ignore them."

Among the ten great families of the capital, the Hong family ranks second. Facing the extraordinary powerhouse Hong Tao, no matter what happens, the best choice is not to provoke him!

What did she mean by "detonate"?

Lin Feng asked, this 'detonation' made him think of a possibility.

Not only Lin Feng, but everyone who heard these words changed their expression.

The group exchanged bewildered glances, their faces grim; clearly, they had all guessed the same answer.

But does the Hong clan really have that much guts?
If not, then why send a medium into the Chaotic Land?

And did Hong Li and the others deliberately conceal their identities?
"perhaps…"

"Zhan Tianyu said, but before he could finish speaking, Lin Feng's figure had already disappeared, and a chubby figure with a look of despair appeared among them.

Suddenly faced with a change of environment, Hong Yi looked somewhat bewildered. After realizing what was happening, his despairing gaze suddenly brightened, revealing surprise and joy in his eyes.

She was surprised at why she had suddenly appeared here.
To her delight, she succeeded.

"Hey!"

Upon seeing Hong Yi appear, Zhan Tianyu and the others remained calm and showed no surprise.

Clearly, Lin Feng has decided to get involved.

On the other side, when Hong Yi disappeared, Hong Li's body trembled. Just as he was about to make a move, Lin Feng suddenly appeared in front of him, his expression indifferent.

Hong Li's face darkened as he looked at Hong Yi, who was not far away.

"substitute!"

Hong Li looked at Lin Feng again, his expression a mixture of anger and disbelief.

A god-level soul skill!
Or it's a powerful support skill like [Substitute].

This kind of spatial attribute divine soul skill is far more precious than other divine soul skills, and it is also more difficult to absorb.

This kind of soul skill is extremely rare and hard to come by; you can't buy it even if you have money.

He never expected Lin Feng to possess such a soul skill.

Even he didn't have a god-level soul skill, yet Lin Feng, who was only twenty years old, possessed two of them!
"A Seven-Star Demon Spirit Master?"

Hong Li stared at Lin Feng, his eyes wide with shock!
In just two years, has that first-tier dragonfish evolved to the seventh tier?
Even if resources are not lacking, isn't this growth rate a bit too fast?

Hong Li forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart; this was not the time to consider this issue. He looked at Lin Feng with a stern gaze:
"What do you mean?"

As they spoke, their soul power trembled slightly, and Hong Li and the other three stared intently at Lin Feng, seemingly ready to fight at the slightest provocation.

At the same time, a barrier rapidly spread out, clearly indicating that Hong Li intended to bind Lin Feng first in exchange for Hong Yi.

In the chaotic land, under the suppression of soul power, Lin Feng's dragonfish had its explosive power limited, making it no match for them. However, before the barrier could be fully released, Lin Feng had already vanished, and a humanoid behemoth appeared before them!

"I don't want to take action."

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Ye Xing spread his hands, his expression somewhat helpless.

The yellow barrier dissipated like mist, and Hong Li and the other three quickly abandoned their plan to exchange hostages.

Given the suppression of his strength, fighting the number one berserker of the Glory Alliance at such close range, the outcome was predictable.

"Truly worthy of being a divine-level soul skill!"

Hong Li thought to himself that this kind of auxiliary soul skill, if coordinated with teammates, is even more troublesome than offensive soul skills.

"Holy crap, a god-level soul skill!"

"When did Lin Feng absorb the substitute soul skill?"

"Is Sha Zi a medium for the Hong clan?"

"Why did the medium arrive? What did that 'detonation' mean?"

"It can't be what I think it means, can it? Have the Hong family gone mad?"

The battle that had already broken out had attracted a lot of attention, and now the appearance of a god-level soul skill, as well as the apparent conflict between Lin Feng and the Hong clan, had drawn the attention of everyone present even more.

The discussions among the crowd made Hong Li increasingly uneasy.

Hong Li ignored Ye Xing and walked towards Lin Feng and his group.

"Give her back to me, and I'll let this matter drop."

Hong Li approached Lin Feng and spoke coldly, while glancing at Hong Yi, who was hiding behind Lin Feng.

"Mind your own business. A genius who hasn't even grown up is nothing."

As he spoke, he looked at Zhan Tianyu and the others: "If something really happens, even these people can't protect you!"

Hong Li was very assertive, and the threat in his words was unmistakable.

Zhan Tianyu's expression changed slightly, feeling suppressed. Although the words were arrogant, they were also true. No one wanted to face the wrath of a superhuman.

"Are you threatening me?"

Bu Zheng stepped forward and blocked Lin Feng's path: "Threatening me in this chaotic place?"

As he spoke, Bu Zheng had already entered his demon transformation state. After the transformation, his handsome appearance instantly caused a stir of amazement.

"It's Bu Yuanlong!" someone exclaimed.

"Don't say I'm bullying you, all four of you come at me together!"

Bu Zheng addressed Hong Li and the other three, displaying an extremely domineering demeanor.

“Bu Yuanlong, this matter has nothing to do with you.”

Hong Li's expression remained unchanged, but he was somewhat wary in his heart.

As someone from the same era, he naturally knew how powerful Bu Yuanlong was. Even though he hadn't broken through to the King level and didn't have two more years to live, few Kings dared to fight him.

It's not that I lack courage, nor that I'm no match for him, but rather that there's no point in fighting a dying man.

There's no benefit in winning or losing.

"You can't protect him either!"

Hong Li looked at Bu Zheng and said, then stepped forward to forcibly take Hong Yi away.

"Hong Tao wants to detonate the novice monk inside me, and then everyone will die!"

Hong Yi spoke quickly, his voice not loud, but loud enough for Lin Feng's team to hear.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed several times. Although they had already guessed it, hearing these words still sent chills down their spines.

Lin Feng's previously wary gaze vanished instantly, replaced by anger tinged with a hint of murderous intent.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Hong Li suddenly reprimanded him and stepped forward to grab Hong Yi.

Hong Yi quickly dodged, but at that moment, Zhan Tianyu stepped in front of her: "What does she mean by that?"

"I demand an explanation!" Yang Ningbing also stepped forward and asked.

"I'd also like to ask, what are you doing, hiding your identities so furtively?"

Huang Tianze questioned him angrily.

Although neither the Yang nor the Zhan family had an emperor, Huang Tianze's grandfather was a martial emperor. When the three families joined forces, they were not afraid of Hong Tao.

Moreover, this is not a matter concerning the three of them.

Faced with the threat of death, the initial fear had long since vanished.

"What explanation?" Hong Li countered.

“We don’t want to offend the Hong family, but I’d like to know what the medium meant by ‘detonation’?” Lin Feng asked calmly.

Do I need to explain this to you?

Hong Li remained assertive and walked towards Hong Yi.

Everyone looked at Lin Feng, waiting for his decision.

This time, Lin Feng didn't stop him. Just as Hong Yi's expression turned despair and Hong Li's lips curled into a smug smile, he said:
"You guessed right, we dare not offend Emperor Hong, but if you don't give a reasonable explanation and take away the spirit medium directly, we will announce our withdrawal from the Chaotic Land! Although we are not afraid of death, we do not want to become sacrifices!"

Upon hearing this, Hong Li's body stiffened slightly, and he abruptly looked at Lin Feng.

The latter's cold eyes revealed a hint of murderous intent!
He was threatened instead!

Although the Chaotic Land is sealed off, allowing entry but not exit, it does not mean that once inside, one cannot leave.

The Chaotic Land connects to another spatial portal, 'Star Land,' which is a nine-star level interdimensional portal that Lin Feng and his group can enter.

Lin Feng's team is one of the most crucial teams in the fight for the key. If they withdraw, it will have a huge impact, and people will inevitably speculate about the reasons for their withdrawal.

fear?

This is obviously impossible!

If they were afraid, these killing gods wouldn't have sealed off the Jade Seal spatial gate and wantonly slaughtered the superhumans!
They certainly wouldn't risk an exorbitant bounty to enter the chaotic land.

If they don't enter the chaotic land, no one can say anything.

If this gets out, even if it's just speculation without any concrete evidence, it will definitely cause panic!
If this were to spread, it would chill the hearts of everyone who entered the chaotic place.

Even the Hong clan couldn't withstand that.

Nobody wants to become cannon fodder, not even those who are prepared to die.

Although Hong Tao is strong, he is only an emperor, not invincible.

The Chaotic Land is a gathering place for geniuses and kings from all over the country, and some of them even have emperors standing behind them!
If this matter is not handled properly, it will definitely trigger a nationwide earthquake!

It could even lead to infighting among the major factions.

Thinking of the consequences, Hong Li felt a chill in his heart and his body stiffened slightly.

"Let's go."

Lin Feng patted Hong Yi, whose eyes were somewhat dazed, then turned and left without looking at Hong Li again.

"it is good!"

Hong Yi snapped out of his daze, made a face at Hong Li, and quickly followed Lin Feng.

Even after Lin Feng and his group left with Hong Yi, Hong Li remained standing in the same spot, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.

He appeared angry, but in reality, he felt a sense of relief.

He doesn't want to die either!
Whether or not Hong Yi's guess was correct, the time bomb had now been transferred to Lin Feng!

When the explosion happens is no longer his concern!
