Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 212 Mysterious "Monster"

After the smoke that had covered several kilometers around gradually dissipated, a slight, unusual sound was the first to reach everyone's ears.

"Cough cough."

A soft cough was heard, and everyone's expression changed.

The faces of Su Qian and the others, led by Canaan Academy, immediately turned ugly. It was truly unbelievable that the old man of Eagle Mountain was still alive after such an attack.

As for whether he was seriously injured, no one cared much. With Han Feng, the master alchemist, around, as long as he had a breath left, he could recover his fighting strength.

Seeing that the old man of Eagle Mountain was still alive despite such a terrifying sneak attack, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

The people of Black Corner Region were overjoyed. Although Han Feng was the one who called for and led this operation, everyone knew that Elder Eagle Mountain was the strongest person in this operation.

If they were to lose their lives in this sneak attack, it wouldn't just be a matter of losing a Dou Zong-level combatant; more importantly, it would be a blow to morale. Perhaps, their entire group would be wiped out as a result.

"Lord Han Feng, Elder Ying Shan currently needs some top-grade healing pills, what do you think?"

When Elder Eagle Mountain was ambushed, the powerful attack naturally separated the two sides, each taking their own side. Of course, most people looked at Xiao Yan's youthful face with a strange expression, contrasting it with his ability to stand in the void without needing battle qi wings.

"Could it be that Canaan Academy is really that abnormal? Not only has it cultivated a peak sixth-grade alchemist, but even a callow youth who doesn't even look twenty years old has achieved the Dou Zong realm?"

Looking at Xiao Yan's appearance, a group of Dou Wang and Dou Huang powerhouses from the Black Corner Region couldn't help but wonder if their years of ups and downs in the Black Corner Region had been a complete waste.

However, true Dou Zong experts and some discerning Dou Huangs knew that Xiao Yan was merely possessed by a powerful soul.

"Since you have all come here to support Han Feng, Han Feng will certainly be responsible for your safety. As for Senior Ying Shan's injuries, I will definitely provide the best healing pills. Please rest assured."

Han Feng had previously considered that once he obtained the Burning Flame Technique, he could abandon the Strange Flame and escape on his own. However, the situation was different now. He hadn't yet obtained the Burning Flame Technique, and if Elder Eagle Mountain were to fall now, the consequences would be severe.

At that point, let alone whether he could obtain the Burning Technique, he might not even be able to save his life. He knew that old fellow Yao Chen very well. Since he dared to expose himself in front of everyone from Canaan Academy, he must have made thorough preparations and was certain that his information would not be leaked.

"Senior Ying Shan, this is a top-grade healing pill personally refined by Han Feng. Please take it."

Han Feng took out a bottle of top-grade healing pills from his storage ring and tossed it to Elder Yingshan, who was not far away. As he watched Elder Yingshan catch the jade bottle, a smile appeared on Han Feng's lips.

Inside were some of the few Grade 7 healing pills he had refined. After all, due to the rush of time back then, he hadn't received much of the inheritance from that old devil Yao Chen. Moreover, the Northwest Continent was a barren land, and it had taken him many years to gather these few medicinal herbs.

"However," Han Feng glanced around but didn't see Lin Feng, a smile still playing on his lips, "it seems that guy's injuries are also quite serious. Or perhaps that move was Canaan Academy's trump card. Because of its immense power, it can only be used once in a short period of time, and it was aimed at the highest level of existence."

"That must be true!"

Han Feng was very confident. As for that Iron Protector, the people of the Soul Palace had never been trustworthy. This time, as long as Elder Eagle Mountain recovered, he would definitely use all his strength and not hold back.

After all, he was almost killed!

Just as Han Feng was confident of victory, he began to fantasize in his mind about obtaining the complete Burning Technique, perfecting his incomplete cultivation method, and making rapid progress in his battle qi cultivation.

Furthermore, there may be opportunities in the future to obtain the many strange flames that have appeared today: the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, the Wind Fury Dragon Flame, the Fallen Heart Flame, the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, and all of his own Sea Heart Flame.

If one can absorb and fuse all five of these flames, not only will one reach the Dou Zun realm, but this half-baked cultivation technique will also be able to completely overcome the embarrassing situation of insufficient Dou Qi after fusing with the five different flames.

On this point, Xiao Yan can be said to have a lot to say. Who would have thought that when he first started cultivating the Burning Blade Technique, he needed to swallow pills that restored his Dou Qi in order to refine a single pill?

This is a disgrace to alchemists!

"puff!"

"Master Han Feng, look! You must be surprised!"

Just then, a shocking voice rang out intermittently behind Han Feng, shattering his dream and instantly turning his expression gloomy.

However, Han Feng was extremely shrewd. Since he still needed to use this little grasshopper, he did not unleash his anger. Instead, he looked in the direction the grasshopper was pointing.

At that glance, Han Feng felt dizzy and disoriented, as if he were about to fall from the sky.

The old man from Eagle Mountain, who had caught the pill thrown by Han Feng with one hand, was experiencing violent chest heaving, blood streaming from his mouth, and his life force was dissipating at an extremely rapid pace.

Behind him, Lin Feng, who had been missing for a long time, watched this scene expressionlessly, his hand piercing through the chest of the Old Man of Eagle Mountain from behind. Indeed, this was Lin Feng's signature move: to make friends, you must be sincere!

"You're despicable!"

"puff"

As expected of a Dou Zong level expert, even after Lin Feng used such a secret technique, he still had a breath left. Seeing this, Lin Feng was so frightened that he pulled out the large hand that was stuck in his heart and took a few steps back.

"Bang!"

As the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame ignited, and the blood on his arm burned to ashes, Lin Feng's gaze swept around unusually, as if he were searching for something.

"The soul power of this old man from Eagle Mountain is the same as mine, and has reached the level of perfection of the mortal realm. He will definitely not die from the simple demise of his physical body."

Lin Feng recalled the strange feeling the old man from Eagle Mountain had given him, as if he were deliberately seeking death. Indeed, when Lin Feng uttered those heartfelt words, he knew that the old man from Eagle Mountain had seen through his actions, and those last few words of dying struggle were nothing more than an act in Lin Feng's eyes.

It can be said that if Lin Feng had not also possessed a soul power at the peak of the mortal realm, no one in the arena would have been able to detect Elder Yingshan's move.

Even Yao Chen, once the continent's number one alchemist, whose soul power had reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Realm and who was even halfway to the legendary Heaven Realm, was so weakened that he could barely deal with a low-level Dou Zong, and yet he was actually allowed to escape.

In everyone's eyes, although the methods were somewhat dishonorable, Lin Feng, who had indeed killed Elder Eagle Mountain, stood straight up in the sky, his eyes constantly scanning his surroundings.

Seeing this, the people from Canaan Academy couldn't help but wonder, "Has something else happened?"

The people of Black Corner Region had no time to think. Originally, their Dou Zong experts seemed to be on par with those of Canaan Academy, but the evil Dou Zong shrouded in black mist had not reappeared since his appearance.

Most of them had already been killed by that despicable Lin Feng. Now, the death of their strongest member, Elder Eagle Mountain, seemed to be the final straw that broke the camel's back. If it weren't for the extremely grim-faced Han Feng and the others holding things up, they probably would have already scattered and fled in disarray.

However, even Han Feng and the two elders Jin and Yin, whom they relied on, were uncertain at this moment. The three of them looked at each other and seemed to understand what the other was thinking.

"Elders Jin and Yin, it seems our sect's plan is doomed to fail!"

Han Feng maintained a gloomy, thoughtful expression on his face, but secretly transmitted his voice to the two elders, Jin and Yin.

"At this moment, Lin Feng stood frozen in place for some reason, but this was our last chance to escape!"

"Master Han Feng, this..."

Seeing the hesitant expressions on the faces of the two elders, Jin and Yin, Han Feng was so angry that he almost fainted. Just by looking at their expressions, he knew that these two wanted to save their lives by surrendering.

"These two idiots! Things have come to this point, and the entire Black Corner Region, even the entire Northwest Continent, is watching the outcome of this battle. If you can get Canaan Academy's forgiveness just by kneeling down and acting like dogs, then in the future, wouldn't any Dou Zong be able to come and provoke us, and if we fail, we can just kneel down and surrender!"

"Moreover," Han Feng glanced discreetly at Xiao Yan, or rather Yao Chen, who seemed to be deep in thought about Lin Feng's situation, "anyone can live today, but as long as this old guy is here, our sect will only have the option of fleeing for our lives."

"Gentlemen, today we have barged into Canaan Academy, causing heavy casualties in the inner courtyard. Do you really think they will let you go just because you beg for mercy?"

Han Feng gradually eroded the morale of the two elders, Jin and Yin. Only by taking these two idiots at the Dou Zong level with him could he have a chance to escape.

"Have you forgotten what Lin Feng said years ago when he severely injured you?"

The two elders, Jin and Yin, seemed to have been reminded of something by Han Feng's words. Recalling the burning, killing, and looting they had committed in the Black Corner Region over the years, their expressions became resolute.

The two brothers exchanged a secret glance. They weren't fools; they naturally understood that Han Feng's eagerness to get them to escape at this moment was simply a ploy to secretly give them more time to run away.

However, weren't the two elders, Jin and Yin, also eyeing Han Feng's collection?

While the three were scheming against each other, Lin Feng's expression suddenly changed. In his perception, when his soul power swept across a certain part of the earth, a strange devouring force appeared in his senses, instantly devouring that part of his soul power.

"Could this feeling be related to the Devouring Spirit Clan, who were exterminated by the Soul Clan in the original story?"

Lin Feng was secretly surprised. Based on his understanding of the original work, it seemed that apart from a certain genius of the Pill Tower and the Void Devouring Flame, only the legendary Devouring Spirit Clan had this ability.

Hehehe

As Lin Feng's soul power was being devoured, a chilling sound slowly rang out from the ground, followed by a series of compatible insects that suddenly appeared and floated up.

Upon hearing that familiar, eerie laughter, Han Feng's face lit up with joy. "Could it be that Iron Protector?"

However, Han Feng was destined to be disappointed. A black object slowly floated up, its shape extremely strange, unlike any known magical beast on the Dou Qi Continent. Its aura seemed to be subtly repelled by the heavens and earth.

Hehehe

The Soul Palace's classic laughter resounded once more, but this laughter seemed to surpass even that of the Soul Palace itself, as if it rightfully belonged to this strange magical beast!

"Lin Feng, I was originally going to spare your life, but you've refused to listen to reason and are now choosing to suffer the consequences!"

The strangely shaped magical beast slowly opened its mouth, but it uttered a human voice. This scene did not surprise the crowd, since some magical beasts with exceptional talents could speak human language at the fifth level.

"Oh? I'd like to see what trump card you have now that you're just a soul!"

A hint of interest flashed in Lin Feng's eyes. With the Dragon Emperor's essence blood protecting him, he didn't think anyone could harm him. In fact, unless one reached the Saint level, no one in the world could break through the protection of the Dragon Emperor's essence blood!

"Hehehe, it's good to have confidence, but anyone can talk big. Perfect, hehehe, this young and powerful body will become my new shell."

"Disgusting creature, watch how I deal with you!"

"All poisons converge upon the source!"

Just then, Cai Lin and Little Fairy Doctor, who were supposed to appear in Yao Chen's plan, suddenly appeared beside Lin Feng. In Cai Lin's hand, there was a fire python that kept crashing against the seal.

Seeing this, Han Feng's pupils shrank sharply. "No wonder I always felt that the Fallen Heart Flame was all bark and no bite. It turns out that this beast's intelligence has reached such a level that it knows too many powerful people around it. If it forces its way through, it will truly lose the chance to win freedom in the future."

Looking at the Fallen Heart Flame in the hand of the beautiful woman in red, Han Feng seemed to understand in an instant.

"However, a beast is still a beast. How much better it would have been if it had obediently been absorbed by our sect. Now that it has fallen into the hands of Canaan Academy again, it may never have a chance to see the light of day again!"

"Wait!" Han Feng, looking at the two women standing in mid-air, suddenly came to his senses. "How is this possible? Two more Dou Zong experts, and so young at that! This is impossible!"

"Cai Lin, Xian'er, your next task is to deal with Han Feng and the others from the Black Corner Region. As for this monster, leave it to your husband!"

Seeing that the two women seemed to want to say something more, Lin Feng's lips twitched slightly, and he secretly transmitted his voice.

"Dragon Emperor's essence blood!"
