Sun Yu was taken aback. He never expected that Chen Yi would ambush him and have a swarm of insects to attack him.

In haste, he had no choice but to command his flying swords to defend himself.

Two flying swords attacked Chen Yi from the left and right, attempting to force him back.

Chen Yi did not retreat at all. Two purple-winged centipedes emerged from the ground, sacrificing their own bodies to block the attack of the flying sword.

Wu Yifeng was bleeding from his mouth and nose, but he desperately used his flying sword to cover Chen Yi.

"You bastard..." Sun Yu roared, trying to fight back to the death.

However, the comfortable and warm feeling he experienced made him lose the will to resist, and his spiritual energy seemed to stagnate.

The next moment, the Blazing Sun Sword pierced his chest.

Chen Yi twisted the sword hilt, and flames instantly erupted within Wu Yifeng's body, causing numerous wounds to appear on the latter's body, with bright red flames bursting from the wounds.

Before Wu Yifeng could even open his mouth, he had already collapsed and died.

The flying swords around him lost control and fell to the ground, and the two protective magical artifacts also lost their glow.

Chen Yi drew the Blazing Sun Sword and, just in case, had the Iron Fire Ants devour Yu Hualong's corpse.

"Huff, almost there." Chen Yi gasped for breath and collapsed to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Wu Yifeng relaxed, his body went limp, and he leaned against the tree trunk, fainting.

Chen Yi forced himself to get up and check on Wu Yifeng, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.

"Oh no, is it already overloaded?!"

He manipulated the array, spirit insects, and flying needles in succession, his current divine sense already exceeding his own limits.

Chen Yi felt everything go black before his eyes, lost consciousness, and collapsed to the ground.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yi felt a warm sensation all over his body.

He could hear the crackling of the campfire beside him, and the heat emanating from the flames radiated onto his body.

He slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying on a bed, with dry grass and branches underneath.

Just as Chen Yi was about to get up, a sharp pain in his mind made him groan a few times.

"Brother Chen, you're finally awake," Mu Yuanrong's voice rang out from the side.

Chen Yi turned his head and saw Mu Yuanrong meditating and regulating her breathing beside him. It was still late at night, and the sounds of spirit insects and demonic beasts could be faintly heard around them.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

"By the way, my senior brother..." Chen Yi said weakly.

Before Mu Yuanrong could answer, a few wisps of wine aroma wafted over.

"Junior brother, you don't need to worry about us. It's you who were unconscious for a day and a night that made us quite worried," Wu Yifeng said.

Chen Yi turned his head to look in the other direction and saw Wu Yifeng leaning against a tree trunk drinking, his face looking somewhat pale.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two were unharmed.

Chen Yi supported himself on the ground and sat up. He took out several pills from his storage bag and swallowed them immediately.

The elixir melted upon entering the mouth, and waves of warmth surged through the eight extraordinary meridians.

"Senior brother, Miss Mu, I need to meditate for a moment. Please protect me while I meditate," Chen Yi said in a deep voice.

Wu Yifeng nodded slightly, reassuring Chen Yi to meditate in peace.

Chen Yi immediately sat cross-legged and began to regulate his breathing, allowing the power of the pill to take full effect.

An hour later, Chen Yi slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air.

Chen Yi still felt a sharp pain in his head and had no choice but to lie down and rest.

"Junior brother, you overused your divine sense. You should not meditate or cultivate for the time being. You can only rest and recover," Wu Yifeng reminded him.

Chen Yi nodded slightly and began to ask him what had happened after he fell into a coma.

Wu Yifeng turned to look at Mu Yuanrong and said:

"This is all thanks to Miss Mu..."

It turned out that Chen Yi and Wu Yifeng had both fallen unconscious after they killed Sun Yu.

Only Mu Yuanrong sustained minor injuries and piloted a flying magical artifact, leading them to escape the area at full speed. As for Yu Hualong's remains, they had to be left behind, but Mu Yuanrong took all of his magical artifact storage pouch.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi relaxed and gradually fell asleep again.

When he opened his eyes, it was already noon.

The dazzling sunlight filtered through the lush foliage and shone on Chen Yi.

Chen Yi slowly got up, still feeling some throbbing pain in his head.

When Wu Yifeng and Mu Yuanrong saw Chen Yi get up, they both went over to check on his health.

"Gentlemen, I've recovered quite a bit. How far are we from the market?" Chen Yi asked.

Mu Yuanrong took out the map jade slip, examined it for a moment, and then replied:

"We'll be back in the market in about a day."

Chen Yi nodded slightly upon hearing this, and after resting for a while, he immediately got up and continued on his way.

The three encountered no danger on the rest of their journey and finally returned to the market at noon the next day.

Chen Yi looked at the north gate of the market and immediately relaxed.

"I'm finally back. I'm going to drink for three days straight," Wu Yifeng said.

Mu Yuanrong's face also showed signs of fatigue; her injuries had not yet fully healed.

After the three agreed on a time to meet again, Mu Yuanrong bid farewell to the two men and left the place first.

She gave Yu Hualong's magical artifacts and storage bag to Chen Yi, since he had contributed the most and personally killed Sun Yu.

Chen Yi felt utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally, and all he wanted to do was go home and get a good night's sleep.

Wu Yifeng waved his hand at him and said:

"Junior brother, I'm leaving now."

Seeing this, Chen Yi said, "Senior brother, we owe you a lot this time."

"Otherwise, if I were to participate in this trip to Wanling Mountain alone, I would surely perish."

Wu Yifeng smiled at Chen Yi, then turned and walked away. Chen Yi watched his retreating figure, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.

Master Zhou has only three disciples. His eldest disciple is already a Foundation Establishment cultivator and is currently cultivating in the inner sect of the Heavenly Spirit Sect.

Senior Brother Wu Yifeng, your strength is so formidable.

He has few rivals among Qi Refining stage cultivators; perhaps only Foundation Establishment stage cultivators are confident of completely defeating him.

Chen Yi flashed and rushed towards his small courtyard.

Before long, he returned to his small courtyard.

Chen Yi took off his clothes, washed himself thoroughly, and then applied ointment to the wound.

Although the spiritual energy in my body had almost recovered, I still felt waves of intense pain in my mind.

His spiritual energy had been depleted beyond its limits, and Chen Yi estimated that it would take him half a month to fully recover.

Chen Yi lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep, sleeping for a full day and night before waking up.

The pain in my mind lessened considerably, but I still couldn't activate my consciousness.

"I didn't die at the hands of the enemy, but I almost died from the backlash of my divine consciousness," Chen Yi said with a wry smile.

Chen Yi lay half-reclined on a cool chair in the courtyard and began to examine Sun Yu's storage bag.

Besides Yu Hualong's items, the storage bag also contained some treasures left behind by Sun Yu after his death.

Chen Yi immediately noticed a white talisman in the storage bag.

With a thought, a white talisman shot out of his storage bag and floated in mid-air.

"This...this is a talisman?!"

Sensing the fluctuations of the talisman, Chen Yi almost instantly determined that it was a powerful talisman treasure of considerable quality.

"Why doesn't Sun Yu use this talisman?" Chen Yi wondered to himself.
