The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 341 Fiery Thunder (Part 1)

Several days later, news spread like wildfire throughout the land of Jiuying that a hill had been leveled by a woman riding a tiger and a group of mysterious men in black.

Upon hearing the news, curious onlookers rushed to the vicinity to investigate. Some reported seeing the body of the young hero Bai Long in the blood-soaked ditch; others said they found three incomplete copies of demonic techniques in the scorched earth; still others claimed to have smelled the aura of the Heavenly Demon Pearl in the air…

Deep within the northern part of the Third Ring Road in the Land of Nine Infants, a dense fog shrouds the area, filled with the eerie, wailing flames of the underworld. Within this fog, ghostly figures can be faintly seen moving about.

"Have you heard? The three monsters of the Nine-Headed Serpent have fallen! It's truly gratifying. I wonder who did it?"

Shh, keep your voice down!

Upon hearing this, the ghost in the group quickly covered his mouth, looked around in surprise and doubt, and said with lingering fear, "This is a rumor. I just witnessed the three filthy Nine-Headed Monsters feasting on the Blood Ghost yesterday, and when I heard the news, I was so angry that I flew into a rage and killed ghosts!"

"..." The first ghost to speak was greatly shocked, thinking to himself that he had forgotten about ghosts after nursing a human, but then he noticed that there were people and ghosts in the distance, so the two ghosts drifted away quietly.

This place is called the Misty Forest. Legend has it that this area is the lost land of the epic powerhouse, Azure Radiance, and people come to explore it in droves.

"My lord, please use it!"

In a corner of the Misty Forest, a campfire blazed fiercely. Feng Ling and his group of sixteen sat in two circles, listening to the ghosts' discussions and couldn't help but smile.

In this place where humans and ghosts meet, rumors spread so quickly. Indeed, neither humans nor ghosts can escape the laws of gossip and rumors.

After the battle, Wang Dachui clearly took away Bailong's corpse; Ji Sheng only intimidated Pingqiu and did not kill the three monsters of Jiuying; Feng Ling did crush the Demon Pearl after absorbing energy, but he simply did not believe that anyone could smell the aura of the fragments of the Demon Pearl! He thought it was just a busybody distorting the facts to attract attention!
"Sixth Brother, after these past few days of intense travel, are the brothers alright with their injuries?"

Xiang Qiubai nodded and accepted the cooked food handed to him by the lean man. Looking at the bandage on the man's right hand, he couldn't help but glance at the group of Wolf Fang Guards by the campfire with great concern. He thought to himself that he had been too careless, which had led to the Nine Infants and Three Monsters using poison to fight back desperately.

"Thank you for your concern, Master! We are also grateful for the bone-dissolving powder given by Brother Feng Ling, which was able to remove the rotten flesh that had penetrated into the bone. Now everyone's wounds have almost healed, and we estimate that we can remove the bandages tomorrow!"

As they spoke, Sun Laoliu and the Wolf Fang Guards on the outer circle looked gratefully at Feng Ling, who was carefully examining the Fire-Tipped Spear, which had undergone a complete transformation.

The Wolf Fang Guards all bore minor wounds, seemingly insignificant, but actually extremely troublesome poisoning wounds spreading to their bones. If it weren't for Feng Ling's invention of the Bone-Melting Powder treatment—a method of fighting poison with poison—they would likely already be dead.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

Seeing this, Feng Ling suppressed the excitement in his heart for the time being, and his gaze swept over the faces of the Wolf Fang Guards one by one, returning them with a sincere smile.

Through these days of harmonious coexistence, Feng Ling truly accepted and recognized them, and acknowledged this group of ordinary-looking, honest evil spirit masters!

Their fates were tragic, each with their own bitter story. In order to survive, they were forced to join the periphery of the evil spirit master organization, thus being despised by the world.

Once the peripheral evil spirit masters lose their original value, the higher-ups of the evil spirit master organization will decisively kill and abandon them to prevent leaks. Even if they manage to escape, they will not be tolerated by either the righteous or the evil! Everyone has also experienced the days when they were hunted down by the whole world. At that time, they were terrified and felt that the world was dark and hopeless, until a white-clad evil spirit master sent someone to secretly rescue them and gave them a chance to be reborn.

Although they are still part of the evil spirit master organization, they have not done evil for a long time and only need to follow the orders of their master, Xiang Qiubai, and their benefactor.

"Fatty, aren't you really not planning to go back and take a look? If you go any further, there's no turning back!"

Feng Ling looked at Wang Dachui, who was staring at the campfire in silence, the flames of the campfire reflecting on his chubby face and making his eyes red.

After passing through this realm of Azure Water and Glazed Light inheritance, only one last place of inheritance remains.

A few days ago, under Qin Lanqin's guidance, Feng Ling led everyone to the other five inheritance sites, only to find them all empty.

After some deduction and questioning, Ji Sheng and Xiang Qiubai remained silent. It wasn't until last night, when he took advantage of Xiang Qiubai's drunkenness, that he was able to verify that the other five inheritances had indeed been obtained by Leng Ningshuang.

Feng Ling was filled with mixed emotions about this matter. It meant that while he was still cultivating diligently in the Azure Pool for a year, Leng Ning Shuang had already traveled to the Land of Nine Infants and begun to go through countless hardships and life-and-death trials to find the five great inheritances.

All of this effort was simply paving the way for Feng Ling, because she guessed he would definitely come. This can be seen from the fact that after Xiang Qiubai's identity was exposed, he decisively handed over the Demon Pearl and followed Feng Ling's lead in all his actions.

“Alan is dead. There’s no point in me going back now; I’ll only fall into the hands of the old Dragon-Controlling Daoist and bring shame upon myself. Rather than that, I’d better improve my strength here and, with a do-or-die attitude, accompany my brothers to venture into the core depths of the Nine Infant Land…”

Wang Pangzi suppressed his grief and transformed it into motivation. He then looked around at the crowd who were casting admiring and encouraging glances his way.

Finally, his gaze settled on Feng Ling, his eyes filled with a bright light.

Firstly, Wang Dachui genuinely treated Feng Ling as a brother, and by extension, he also accepted Ji Sheng, Xiang Qiubai, and others.

Secondly, during the battle on the hill that day, he was protected and healed by Feng Ling throughout the entire process, and he was fortunate enough to witness firsthand how terrifying Feng Ling's individual combat strength was!
That terror did not stem from the collapse of the hills, but from the power of thunder and fire from the heavens!
Perhaps, in terms of overall energy, that thunder and fire power is not as great as the gray-white energy that caused the hills to collapse, but that purplish-black lightning that connects the sky and the earth and is accompanied by two-colored flames is extremely shocking to behold!

It was this divine punishment-like power of thunder and fire that frightened the three monsters of the Nine Infants, turned the hills into scorched earth, and enabled Wang Dachui to have an epiphany and break through!

Enough said, the epic-level equipment is here. The purpose of the Thunderclap is to enable Feng Ling's Fiery Thunderous Fury!

Every time a creature hatches, it's a new beginning...

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages offer you a pure land for your souls.
