Chapter 127: Brutal Slaughter of the Enemy (Part 1)

  Xuantian's 'Dragon Tiger Step' reached its extreme, with a speed as swift as an arrow leaving the bowstring.

  When running, Xuan Tian applied the terrifying power to his legs. Every step he took would leave a footprint that was an inch deep in the ground. Even if the ground was made of stone slabs, they would be trampled into some crushed stone powder.

  The realm of Dacheng's 'Dragon and Tiger Step' was originally as fast as lightning, but under the driving force of reaction, Xuantian's speed increased by more than 50%, flashing out over a hundred meters in one second, and another hundred meters in the next second.

  In just two moments, Xuan Tian's figure had disappeared from the sight of Feng Bu Zhi and the three others, as well as Yan Guan Xi and other Ling Yun Sect disciples.

  Ling Luo and others, never thought that Xuan Tian's speed would be so fast, easily surpassing the third-level demon beast Steel Armor Ox. Even if it were a pre-heavenly fourth or fifth realm warrior who had cultivated mid-grade lightness skills in the Xuan stage, they wouldn't be able to match Xuan Tian's speed unless they reached the great completion boundary.

  A boulder, about four or five meters high, was directly shattered into fragments.

  A huge tree, as thick as an adult's waist, was cut in half with a loud "crack".

  Steel-plated demonic cow, its body's hardness is far beyond that of hardwood or stone, everything that blocks its path will be crushed under its brute force.

  So, although the Steel Armor Demon Cow's speed was much slower than Xuan Tian's, it didn't need to worry about being blocked by obstacles in front of it and could charge forward directly. It followed far behind Xuan Tian, and for a while, Xuan Tian couldn't shake it off either.

  Xuān Tiān and Fēng Bù Zhì, the three of them were among the best of the inner disciples of the Tiān Jiàn Sect. Especially Xuān Tiān, who was ranked fifth among the top ten inner disciples of the Tiān Jiàn Sect, and was also a rare genius of the sect, had been ambushed. This is going to be big trouble.

  If all four of the Mystic Heaven Sect were killed, it would be fine if no one knew their whereabouts in the depths of the Yin Wind Mountains. However, as long as any one of them escaped and the news was sent back to the Tian Jian Sect, Ling Luo Feng and others would definitely not let them off easily.

  So, if you want to kill, you have to kill them all. If one escapes, a disciple of the Lingyun Sect, no one will dare to make a move.

  Obviously. Whether the four people of Xuantian can be killed, Xuantian is the most critical one, so... Ling Luofeng controls the steel armored cow demon with the fastest speed to pursue Xuantian.

  Xuantian sped away like lightning, and soon left the valley, in less than a hundred breaths. He had already departed more than ten miles away, but the Steel Armor Demon Cow continued to chase after him from behind. However, Xuantian's speed was truly too fast, and despite the Steel Armor Demon Cow's frantic pursuit, it couldn't close the distance by even a hair, and instead grew farther and farther away.

  In the midst of the dark stage, a mid-grade treasure sword, Heavy Mountain Sword, had appeared in Xuán Tiān's hand. It was an extremely critical moment, as occasionally, three levels of middle and upper-stage demonic beasts would emerge on the path ahead. With a single slash of the Heavy Mountain Sword, Xuán Tiān struck down the middle-stage demonic beast, instantly killing it and splitting it in two. The upper-stage demonic beast, unable to withstand the sword's intent, was severely injured by the mid-grade treasure sword, and could not impede Xuán Tiān's progress in the slightest.

  After sprinting for a short while, Xuan Tian finally managed to shake off the Steel Armor Ox after running over 100 miles away. Despite his exceptionally strong physique, he couldn't help but pant heavily after continuously sprinting over 100 meters in one breath, feeling like he was having trouble catching his breath.

  Xuantian darted through the forest, laying down numerous decoys, and then circled around for over ten miles before finally stopping to rest and recover in a secluded spot. After more than a hundred breaths, Xuantian had fully recovered, and using the trees as cover, he slowly made his way back to the dense fog valley where he was earlier.

  Although he ran away just now, Xuan Tian didn't plan to return to the Heavenly Sword Sect to report the situation without considering Feng Bu Zhi and the others. Although Ling Luo Feng controlled a third-level demon beast, Steel Armor Demon Cow, his strength was extremely powerful, not under that of a warrior in the fifth stage of the Pre-Heavenly realm, but Xuan Tian had more than enough power to protect himself.

  Previously, it was because Ling Luo and others had taken the lead, Xuan Tian couldn't turn the situation around. Now that Xuan Tian is in hiding, Ling Luo and others absolutely wouldn't have thought that Xuan Tian has escaped and would actually counterattack, they will definitely be caught off guard. At that time, they will also let Ling Luo and others suffer a great loss.

  It was the Lingyun Sect's disciples who attacked first, and Xuantian is now returning the courtesy, so he doesn't care about the outcome. If they argue about it in the future, they will be in the right, even if they end up killing a few of the Lingyun Sect's disciples, there will be reasons to explain.

  Over a hundred miles away, Xuan Tian slowly crept forward, compared to the previous instant sprint of hundreds of meters, much slower, and it took more than an hour to return to the forest outside the valley.

  Suddenly, Xuan Tian's body, which was quietly walking on the tree branch, suddenly flashed to a place with dense branches and leaves, motionless. In front of him appeared three black-clothed men with black hoods, from their auras it could be seen that the middle black-clothed man had a cultivation base of Five Heavens of Innate Realm, while the two on either side were both at the Four Heavens boundary of Innate Realm.

  Wearing a black scarf to cover his face, making it impossible to see his features, dressed in black clothes, with no signs on his body.

  Only when doing something shameful would one dress like this.

  Xuān Tiān didn't dare to frown, this was the depths of Yīn Fēng mountain range, a place where people rarely set foot. It was normal for hundreds of miles around to not see a single person's shadow. What was going on? Why did these three people need to cover their faces while being here? Were they afraid to show their true identities?

  Xuantian, as the master blacksmith, had extraordinary hearing and had already heard the footsteps of the three people early on. He hid in advance, held his breath, and used the "Xuanxuan Secret Technique". Not only could it seal one's cultivation, but also make a warrior's aura leak-proof. The three men in black walked under the tree without discovering Xuantian or sensing anything.

  Three men in black had just walked under the tree, a warrior with innate fivefold cultivation, suddenly squatted down and carefully looked at the ground, saying: "This little rabbit is really fast, the 'invisible powder' on the ground is very rare, if we can't find him today, it will be difficult to find him in the Yin Wind Mountains later."

  As he finished speaking, the man stood up and continued walking forward, with the other two men in black closely following behind.

  Until the three men in black had gone far away, to a place where even Xuan Tian could no longer hear their voices, did Xuan Tian let out a breath and continue on his way, stealthily making his way towards the dense fog of the valley.

  However, Xuantian's eyebrows did not disperse. For some reason, although the black-clothed man didn't mention a name, Xuantian had an intuition that the target they were searching for was him.

  Because the black-clothed man who had just reached the fifth level of Xiantian cultivation was observing the ground, which was exactly where Xuan Tian had rushed out of the dense fog valley earlier.

  "These black-clothed men, where did they come from? They seem to be looking for me. Could it be that someone wants to kill me? Even a master of the Innate Realm's fifth level has appeared, truly formidable. A master of the Innate Realm's fifth level is equivalent in strength to a third-level demon beast overlord, not easy to deal with. It seems I need to be careful and try to avoid them, not meet with them. Let me go see how Feng Bu Zhi and the others are doing, rescue them from Ling Luo Feng and Yan Guan Xi's hands, then return to the sect, in the Yin Wind Mountains. Can't stay here for now."

  In his heart, Xuantian silently pondered. He continued to move forward stealthily.

  The three black-clad men who were just seen by Xuan Tian are heading in the opposite direction of Xuan Tian, following the footprints that Xuan Tian had just rushed along, and disappearing into the distance.

  Suddenly, the black-clad man with a congenital four-layer cultivation base on the right side looked up at the sky and his gaze fell on the branches above. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "There is 'Invisible Powder'."

  'Invisible powder' is a special material, invisible and traceless. It's also non-toxic. However, when a warrior's eyes are coated with a special medicinal liquid and then look at the 'invisible powder', they will see some sparkling lights.

  This is a special tracking method of a certain family, and outsiders know very little about it.

  Huh?

  The black-clad man's body suddenly leapt onto the branch, where Xuan Tian had just left his footprints. He looked around for two or three breaths and said, "This is the 'Invisible Powder' that was just left behind. What a cunning little brat! He probably saw us earlier. Let's chase after him."

  Less than three or four miles away from the dense fog valley, suddenly, Xuan Tian's advancing body paused, and a surprised voice exclaimed: "Actually been discovered?"

  Three extremely fast footsteps were rushing towards him, Xuan Tian turned his gaze to look over and indeed, three black-clad men, treading on the tree crowns' branches and leaves, were rapidly approaching the place where he was.

  "At such a fast speed, these three people have probably cultivated mid-grade lightness skills in the Xuan stage. The black-clothed man at the fifth heaven of the Innate Realm is the fastest, with extremely high attainments. His mid-grade lightness skill in the Xuan stage has almost reached the Great Completion realm. With just one breath, he can sprint a hundred meters, and compared to me, not a single bit slower."

  Xuantian forgot about the three people who came hastily, and was slightly surprised in his heart.

  Seeing three men in black rushing towards him, Xuan Tian knew that he must have exposed his tracks and no longer hid. His body leaped from the treetop, running out hundreds of meters, landing in a vast open space.

  Xuantian's speed relies entirely on the recoil of his strength to reach its fastest state. On the ground, Xuantian's speed is even faster than in the treetops, allowing him to withdraw at any time.

  Soon, three men in black appeared before Xuantian, about 300 meters away.

  Xuantian had two swords on his back, standing straight and upright. He let out a loud shout: "Halt! Who are you people? What do you want with me?"

  "Little rabbit, I've finally found you! Haha, what am I going to do with you? Come and take your dog life, haha!"

  In the midst of the innate realm, a powerful warrior with five layers of martial arts laughed loudly. He drew out a long sword from his hand, its radiance dazzling to the eyes, and it was an extraordinary treasure. The sword pointed at Xuan Tian, shouting: "Stop wasting words on him, kill this little rabbit!"

  "It is!"

  "It is!"

  Two black-clad men with four-layered Heavenly Boundary stood on either side of him, shouting in unison.

  As they spoke, the two black-clad men in the Fourth Heaven Realm had already taken a step ahead and struck out with their long swords, their dazzling sword tips flashing over three hundred feet, instantly stabbing towards Xuan Tian.

  These two black-clad men, who were at the Fourth Stage of the Innate Realm, had a very solid foundation in their cultivation. At the very least, they had reached the middle stage of the Fourth Stage of the Innate Realm, and possibly even the later stages. They were far superior to someone like Niu Zhenshan, who relied on medicinal pills to forcefully raise his cultivation to the Fourth Stage of the Innate Realm. In fact, two Niu Zhenshans wouldn't be a match for just one of these black-clad men.

  That black-robed man of the Innate Realm's fifth stage pointed his treasured sword at Xuanyuan, yet didn't make a move.

  In the message, Xuan Tian is a warrior in the first realm of the Pre-Heavenly stage, whose strength is slightly stronger than that of a warrior at the peak of the third realm of the Pre-Heavenly stage. Compared to a warrior in the fourth realm of the Pre-Heavenly stage, he is one level lower.

  At this moment, two black-clad men in the Innate Realm Fourth Order simultaneously made their moves. The middle black-clad man was clearly the leader of the three, with a calm and collected demeanor, observing from the side.

  "Looking for death!"

  Just as the blades of the two men in black flashed, two icy words filled with killing intent suddenly rang out.
