Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Really? Then let's give it a try!"

Lu Feng stood up again, pointed his wood-chopping knife at Cui Gu and the others opposite him, and then made a throat-slitting gesture, full of provocation.

"You brat, you're asking for death!"

Seeing Lu Feng still daring to act arrogantly even when he was about to die, Cui Gu roared in anger again, his Yuan Power surging and erupting, and at the same time he suddenly shot out the pair of gilded hooks in his hand.

call out!call out!

The gilded double hooks pierced the air like arrows released from a bow, whipping up gusts of wind with astonishing force!

This weapon was already a near-first-grade spiritual treasure, and now with the addition of Yuan energy, its power has more than doubled. Even ordinary martial artists at the ninth level of the Body Refinement Realm would not dare to withstand it with their bare bodies!

"Phantom Blade Technique!"

As the gilded double hooks came hurtling towards him, Lu Feng remained calm and composed. A large amount of Yuan Power surged from his dantian, and his right hand swung the wood-chopping knife in mid-air, instantly creating four afterimage blade energies.

Clang clang clang clang...!

The afterimage of the blade energy swept across the sky like a charging army, instantly deflecting the gilded double hooks with a single blow, producing a series of metallic clanging sounds before they were driven upside down into the ground.

"Hmph, it's not over yet...!"

Despite his thwarted attack, Cui Gu gave a cold laugh, forming a mudra with his hands, his killing intent intensifying.

"not good....!"

Sensing the same deadly killing intent emanating from his opponent, Lu Feng instinctively withdrew and retreated rapidly.

"Trying to run? Not so easy!"

With another roar, Cui Gu's Yuan Power surged, and the gilded double hooks that were stuck upside down in the ground burst out of the ground and then exploded, shooting out countless hidden weapons!

call out!call out!call out!

A barrage of hidden weapons rained down from the sky, like a storm, instantly engulfing Lu Feng and leaving him nowhere to retreat!

"Break it!"

Lu Feng's heart sank, and he slashed out with his wood-chopping knife again, a large amount of Yuan energy covering the blade, which then burst out and transformed into four afterimage blade energies.

"The wind sweeps away the remaining clouds!"

Ji Rufeng, who had been watching the battle from the side, finally made his move. His Yuan Power surged out, and he kicked out dozens of whirlwind streaks that went straight for Lu Feng's lower body.

Clearly, this is also a first-class martial art with considerable power, in no way inferior to Lu Feng's Afterimage Blade Technique!

Boom!

Rumble...!

With a deafening explosion of Yuan energy, the entire ruins of the Qingmu branch were shrouded in dust and fog, turning everything into a mess, and Lu Feng's figure disappeared.

After a few breaths, the thick fog gradually dissipated.

Lu Feng's figure then appeared.

He was kneeling on the ground, his body riddled with various hidden weapons, blood soaking his flesh and bones, and his naked body exposed. At the same time, his Yuan Qi aura had dropped to an extremely low point, clearly indicating that his injuries were serious!

"Looks like this little bastard isn't all that capable after all...!"

Upon seeing this, Cui Gu burst into laughter and immediately reached out his right hand, intending to twist Lu Feng's head off.

Something's not right....

Ji Rufeng glanced at Lu Feng, who was also badly injured, and frowned slightly.

For some reason, he always felt that the other party seemed to be hiding their cultivation level and was not going all out.

"Fatty Cui, get back!"

Suddenly, Ji Rufeng shouted again.

"die!"

The next moment, Lu Feng, who was originally seriously injured, suddenly opened his eyes, then raised his hand and slashed at Cui Gu's face, seemingly having only been deliberately injured to show weakness.

"What?!"

With them so close, Cui Gu had no way to avoid it and could only twist his body to the side.

"ah...!"

The blade swiftly severed Cui Gu's entire left arm, causing him to let out a bloodcurdling scream. He then retreated in a sorry state, leaving behind only a pool of blood.

"Tch, what a pity...!"

Seeing that he hadn't been able to kill him with one blow, Lu Feng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then circulated his Yuan Power and gently shook it, instantly dislodging all the hidden weapons stuck in his body, as if his previous serious injury and fall to the ground were just an act.

After all, he had eaten thousands of gray monster fish in the nameless valley, and his physical body was not something that ordinary body-refining martial artists could achieve. Naturally, a few hidden weapons could not harm him.

"That idiot, he's definitely unreliable...!"

Seeing that Cui Gu had lost an arm due to Lu Feng's sneak attack, Ji Rufeng's face darkened, and his murderous aura rose again.

"That damned little beast...!"

"Today I'm going to skin you alive, tear you apart, and grind your bones to dust...!"

However, before he could make a move, Cui Gu's furious roar came from the side.

The next moment, Cui Gu suddenly got up from the ground, his eyes turned red, his originally huge belly swelled up several times, and many strange green bumps appeared on his skin, making him look like a normal human!

Not only that, Cui Gu's Yuan Power aura also more than doubled, comparable to a ninth-level Body Refinement Realm expert!

"This guy's elemental energy aura has gotten stronger again...?"

"Is this guy a human or a ghost?"

Seeing Cui Gu's drastic change in appearance, Lu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, a sense of unease creeping into his heart.

For some reason, he felt a deadly threat from the other person for the first time.

"I didn't expect this kid to be able to force Fatty Cui to use the Frost Toad Poison Sucking Technique... Interesting."

Beside him, Ji Rufeng withdrew his Yuan energy and leaped to the top of a tree, seemingly intending to sit back and watch the fight unfold.

He was already at odds with Cui Gu, and now that he saw Lu Feng and the latter fighting, Ji Rufeng was naturally happy to see it happen. When both sides were badly injured, he could reap the benefits.

"Frosty Toad Mist Kill!"

Suddenly, Cui Gu opened his mouth wide and spewed out a large amount of eerie green poisonous mist, which instantly covered the surrounding area for hundreds of meters.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

The eerie green poisonous mist swept in with the wind, its power growing even stronger. Wherever the mist passed, all flowers, plants, and trees withered and died. Even the scattered corpses were not spared, turning into pools of blood!

"Phantom Blade Technique!"

Faced with the eerie green poisonous mist coming from all directions, Lu Feng was on high alert. He immediately brandished his wood-chopping axe, unleashing six afterimages of sword energy.

After the fierce battle, his Shadow Blade Technique also broke through, reaching the "Mastery" level, and he could unleash six afterimages of sword energy at once.

Sizzle sizzle...!

However, faced with the large amount of eerie green poisonous mist, the afterimages of the sword energy were like a retreating army. In just a moment, they evaporated on the spot, turning into nothingness, and emitting a piercing scorching sound.

"This poisonous fog can even evaporate Yuan Qi...!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Feng frowned even more and his expression changed drastically.

He never expected that Cui Gu would still have such a trump card. This time, he was careless and underestimated his enemy!

"not good...!"

Just as Lu Feng was stunned, the eerie green poisonous mist struck in an instant, instantly enveloping him completely.

"Pfft...!"

The next moment, Lu Feng's face turned pale, blood suddenly flowed from his seven orifices, and his whole body swayed and fell down, completely still, as if he had been poisoned and died!
