Phantom monster
"Let you kill, yet you dare not, what kind of elders are you from the sect." Lin Feng sneered, then turned around and swung his sword, cutting off the head of a python, incredibly sharp.
Seeing Lin Feng's sinister smirk, He Chong became even more cautious, already believing Lin Feng's words. Similarly, Mo Ye did not dare to take risks personally. The direct shadow of darkness that stood over him last time had left him too shaken. Even now, the psychological shadow had not dissipated.
The beast tide became increasingly violent, and disciples from Yunhai Sect who came to reinforce gradually increased. Their eyes emitted dazzling brilliance as they charged into the midst of the demon beasts to hunt, as if they were the beasts themselves.
Liu Fei also arrived, witnessing Lin Feng amidst the demon beast group, seemingly invincible. Blood from the demon beasts spattered with each of his sword strikes. Moreover, Lin Feng did not even use the strength of the Spiritual Martial Realm, only exerting the power of the Qi Martial Realm's ninth stage. His swordsmanship was even more erratic, yet every strike of his sword was extremely powerful.
Lin Feng's swordsmanship had reached a state of being able to do as he pleased, fast, accurate, and ruthless. Even without using sword techniques, it was equally powerful. The crowd could not tell how strong his actual strength was.
"The damned fellow." Liu Fei cursed Lin Feng inwardly. She took out her bow and arrows from her back, and with a shot, directly killed a demon beast that Lin Feng was about to deal with.
As Lin Feng turned around, he saw Liu Fei's cold eyes. He smiled faintly, indifferent.
"Roar!" At this moment, an angry roar resounded, the sound of hooves rumbling, causing the ground to shake. Everyone felt like the ground was about to collapse, their faces changing involuntarily.
"A powerful demon beast is coming, retreat quickly."
Many people began to retreat. A terrifying aura of demons rose to the sky, and the pervasive black mist gradually pressed in from afar. All the trees along the way withered in an instant.
"So terrifying."
The crowd retreated frantically. This kind of demon beast was at least a Spiritual Demon Beast. If outer disciples went to fight, it would undoubtedly be seeking death.
Lin Feng also felt the surging demon aura. He kept retreating, not confident that he could resist the beast tide. The demon beast he faced just now was just a minor disturbance.
However, as Lin Feng retreated, a powerful oppressive force descended on him, pushing his body from behind, making his figure stiff in place, unable to retreat.
"Beast." Lin Feng angrily shouted, his expression cold, his eyes glaring at Mo Ye behind him. He could tell who was playing tricks on him without thinking. Only Mo Ye, this elder, could exert such a great pressure on him without moving a finger, stopping him from retreating.
Hearing Lin Feng's angry shout, Mo Ye remained unmoved, sneering in his heart. He had been scared by a mere outer disciple's few words, losing all face. The more he thought about it, the more wrong it seemed. How could the owner of the Shadow Martial Soul follow Lin Feng all the time? Moreover, Mo Ye carefully observed the surroundings and found no extra shadows.
Of course, Mo Ye could not be completely sure that the other party was not there, so he used this method to test Lin Feng.
The powerful demon aura approached closer and closer, as if the earth was about to overturn. The crowd saw a mass of black mist coming over from a distance. Around the black mist were various powerful demon beasts, each emitting a terrifying aura.
"It's over. Elder Mo Ye is intentionally making things difficult for him. He's doomed."
Everyone fled to Mo Ye's back, but Lin Feng was blocked. The crowd naturally understood that this was Mo Ye's doing, silently cursing Lin Feng for not knowing the current situation. This was the result of offending an elder.
"This demon aura is so strong. If I stay here, I will undoubtedly die."
Lin Feng felt extremely sensitive. He shouted angrily, his figure flickering, trying to bypass Mo Ye and retreat.
"Humph, it seems that the expert with the Shadow Martial Soul did not follow." Mo Ye sneered in his heart, but said, "As a disciple of our Yunhai Sect, to flee in the face of danger is to disgrace our sect."
As soon as he finished speaking, a vine on Mo Ye's body crazily attacked, extremely thick and extremely fast, instantly reaching Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's body, already stiff, trembled suddenly. The vine coiled around his body in an instant, soon wrapping around him tightly like a huge python, rendering him unable to move.
"Soul Martial Soul, Mo Ye's Python Vine Martial Soul."
The crowd trembled. It seemed that Mo Ye was determined to kill Lin Feng. An outer disciple dared to confront an elder, and the outcome was already doomed.
However, some people also secretly looked down on this. Only Mo Ye, with a narrow mind, could do such a thing as an elder attacking an outer disciple. However, they dared not speak out these thoughts. In such a situation, who would dare to provoke Mo Ye?
"Despicable." Lin Feng shouted angrily, his sword flashing. However, his powerful sword only cut a slit in the Python Vine Martial Soul, unable to shake it at all.
Although Lin Feng was exceptionally talented and had no pressure dealing with opponents of the same level, and could even fight against those whose realm was higher than his, Mo Ye, as an elder of the inner sect, was far too powerful compared to him. This gap in strength could not be compensated by talent alone. Faced with Mo Ye's shameless tricks, Lin Feng was completely helpless.
"A dignified inner sect elder, yet so shameless."
At this moment, a cold voice sounded, causing everyone to pause. The speaker turned out to be Liu Fei, the outer disciple who was beautiful and pursued by many.
"Hmm?" Mo Ye frowned, glanced at Liu Fei, snorted coldly, but dared not move against her. He naturally knew Liu Fei's background. Liu Fei's father had the same name as his father, Mo Canglan. However, when it came to the name "Canglan," people in Yunhai Sect first thought of Liu Canglan, who was a generation younger than his father, Mo Canglan.
The Divine Arrow, Liu Canglan, was once on par with the current sect master, Nangong Ling, as the twin pride of Yunhai Sect. Their talents overshadowed all their peers, and their bond was deeply profound.
The Arrow Martial Soul released its power, as Liu Fei, with her silver-black bow tightly gripped, once again set up six arrows, aiming towards the Python Vine Martial Soul.
Liu Canglan exuded an air of righteousness, while Liu Fei abhorred evil. Though she harbored deep hatred towards Lin Feng, she couldn't tolerate Mo Ye's despicable actions. It was simply shameless beyond measure.
Even though she knew these arrows wouldn't have any effect, Liu Fei still shot them. As expected, the Python Vine Martial Soul remained unscathed.
A faintly amused look flickered in Lin Feng's eyes. He hadn't expected that the only person to step forward and help him would be Liu Fei.
"The human heart is treacherous. I have been too careless," Lin Feng sighed inwardly. He hadn't anticipated encountering Mo Ye at this moment, nor had he expected Mo Ye to stoop to such depths of depravity.
Furthermore, with Mo Ye being the strongest presence here, his word was law, and no one dared to oppose him. Liu Fei was an exception, but her resistance was futile.
"Roar…" The horde of demon beasts approached ferociously, their speed astonishing. A mass of black mist roared wildly, swallowing everything in its path, incredibly powerful.
"What a formidable Illusionary Demon Beast. It must be at least seventh-tier." Mo Ye sensed the terrifying aura and muttered to himself. A seventh-tier Spiritual Demon Beast was equivalent to a seventh-stage Martial Realm cultivator. Coupled with the inherently domineering and fearsome strength of demon beasts, ordinary seventh-stage Martial Realm cultivators were no match for this Illusionary Demon Beast.
As for Lin Feng... a hint of icy killing intent flashed in Mo Ye's eyes.
"Mo Ye, you're overstepping." A thunderous voice of reprimand rolled in, preceding the arrival of the speaker.
Mo Ye's expression changed, his gaze turning fierce. With a ruthless glint in his eyes, he flung Lin Feng's body with the Python Vine Martial Soul, hurling it towards the horde of demon beasts.
