Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Given my current physical condition, even if I were to fully circulate the Nirvana Sutra, it would take at least the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before I could barely recover enough strength to fight again..."

Lu Feng inwardly groaned, "I wonder if I can hold out for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn...!"

Although he is currently seriously injured, his physical body is comparable to a Xuan-grade magic weapon, so he will not die for the time being. The only troublesome thing is that his dantian energy is insufficient.

After all, Yuanli is the source of all a martial artist's power.

However, without the support of Yuan energy, it would be difficult for him to directly kill Li Linyue, who was at the third level of the Spirit Soul Realm, relying solely on brute force and martial arts skills!

Therefore, Lu Feng's current strategy is very simple: stalling!

With his current strength and cultivation, even if his dantian energy has not fully recovered, only about 30% has recovered, it is enough to deal with Li Linyue on the other side!

As for how to get through the period of weakness that lasts for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, that's another matter entirely, and even Lu Feng wasn't sure!

The other side of the valley

"Brother Lu! We should press our advantage and pursue the fleeing enemy to the bitter end, not seek only fame like Xiang Yu!"

Seeing that Lu Feng suddenly stopped and did not pursue, Shen Tianzhong, who was lying on the ground, also struggled to raise his head and warned in a deep voice, "We have now completely broken ties with the Taiji Sword Sect, and we absolutely cannot let these guys leave alive, otherwise we will be in deep trouble..."

Although Shen Tianzhong has now joined the Falling Star Academy and submitted to the righteous forces, as the former third most notorious villain on the list of evil people, he still understands the importance of eliminating the root of the problem and preventing future troubles.

If Li Linyue and the others were to escape now, it would undoubtedly lead to endless troubles!

"Strange, why did this guy suddenly stop?"

Like Shen Tianzhong, Li Linyue also narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of surprise and doubt appearing on his face when faced with Lu Feng's sudden withdrawal.

After all, with Lu Feng's strength and cultivation, there was no need for him to show mercy. He could have easily wiped out all the Tai Chi Sword Sect members present, leaving none alive!

"Could it be... that this person has exhausted all his tricks and run out of energy?"

As if remembering something, Li Linyue's face flickered slightly, and a greedy killing intent reappeared in his eyes. At the same time, his fear of Lu Feng also decreased considerably.

After all, a martial artist's dantian energy is not inexhaustible; it too will eventually be depleted.

At present, Lu Feng's Yuan Power aura has greatly decreased, and he has not continued to launch an attack, which is undoubtedly a sign that his Dantian Yuan Power is exhausted.

Otherwise, the other side would have no reason not to take action!

"Heh, it seems this person just exhausted all his energy to break through the Big Dipper Sword Formation set up by Junior Brother Wei and the others..."

A sneer curled at the corner of his lips, and the next moment, Li Linyue slowly drew his sword from his back, his killing intent surging. "Truly, heaven is helping me...!"

At first, he was wary of Lu Feng's strength, which is why he did not take the initiative to make a move. But now that the other party and Wei Taiteng and others have fought to the death, it is a good opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation!

"Fellow Daoist Shen, I also want to kill all these guys right now, but unfortunately, the circumstances don't allow it..."

His gaze swept over the injured Shen Tianzhong not far behind him. Lu Feng secretly circulated his internal energy to regulate his breathing while showing a helpless expression.

He was well aware of Shen Tianzhong's thoughts.

However, his dantian is currently empty of energy. Not to mention dealing with Li Linyue, the number one disciple of the inner sect of Taiji Sword Sect, even a random martial artist like Lu Feng at the Opening Meridian Realm would be no match for him!

"Go for it, Senior Brother Li!"

"Senior Brother Li, you must kill this brat and avenge us!"

"That's right! We must tear this demonic cult member to pieces!"

Seeing that Li Linyue was finally going to take action himself, the injured Taiji Sword Sect disciples around him were filled with righteous indignation and excitement.

In their view, although Lu Feng was very strong, even the Big Dipper Sword Formation couldn't stop him, he was already exhausted and definitely no match for Li Linyue!

"Don't worry, I'll avenge you...!"

Slowly turning his head to look at Wei Taiteng and the others behind him, a murderous intent flashed in Li Linyue's eyes. The next moment, he swung his sword backhand and slashed out with lightning speed!

bass!bass!bass!

In an instant, the sword light swept across, creating a gust of wind that swept around the valley.

"Ah...! Ah...! Ah...!"

The next moment, a series of shrill screams suddenly rang out, and then Wei Taiteng and the others also fell to the ground, their blood splattered and stained crimson. They were all pierced into sieves by the sharp swords, and almost none of them survived!

"Li, Senior Brother Li...!"

"What's wrong with you...?!"

Before his death, Wei Taiteng's eyes were filled with terror as he stared at Li Linyue in disbelief, seemingly unable to believe that the other party would actually attack him.

"Don't worry, Junior Brother Wei, your sacrifice will not have been in vain. I will always remember your contributions..."

After glancing once more at the corpses of Wei Taiteng and the others on the ground, Li Linyue slowly sheathed his sword. His face remained expressionless, clearly showing that he did not care about the lives of the others.

Because in his eyes, Wei Taiteng and the others were just a group of tools to exhaust Lu Feng's strength. Now that they had lost their usefulness, there was no need to keep them.

"This guy actually killed his own people...?"

Seeing this, Lu Feng, who was not far away, also frowned slightly. The next moment, he suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. This guy never intended to let Wei Taiteng and the others leave alive from the beginning. He planned to take all the credit for himself...!"

"As expected of the top disciple of the Lin generation in the inner sect of the Tai Chi Sword Sect, his methods are indeed ruthless..."

After seeing through Li Linyue's true purpose, Lu Feng also took a deep breath, and then secretly circulated his internal energy to accelerate the recovery of his dantian's vital energy.

As for Li Linyue on the other side, he was not idle either. He immediately raised his sword and cut off the heads of Wei Taiteng and others on the ground. At the same time, he destroyed the latter's facial features, making it almost impossible to recognize their true appearance.

After all, he would later use the heads of Lu Feng, Wei Taiteng, and others as remnants of the Demonic Sect to claim rewards from his sect. Therefore, he was naturally being careful and leaving no loopholes to avoid exposing his crimes of murdering his fellow disciples in the future.

"Not only are you blinded by greed, but you're even harboring murderous thoughts towards your own fellow disciples for your own selfish gain. You're truly a beast, and even I have to admire your depravity..."

Seeing Li Linyue's little tricks of killing and disposing of the body, Lu Feng's lips curled up slightly, his tone full of mockery.

Although he didn't care about the lives of Wei Taiteng and the others, it didn't affect his contempt for Li Linyue. After all, what the latter did was truly despicable and shameless, a complete act of a petty person.

"Hmph! You sharp-tongued brat, you'll be next to die!"

Faced with Lu Feng's sarcasm, Li Linyue not only didn't get angry but laughed. He then thrust out his sword again, aiming straight for the former's heart, clearly intending to end the battle completely!
