Xu Feng ran through the forest with two others, spreading the news and causing a chaotic battle among various factions.
Especially for those rogue cultivators, who typically operated in small groups of three to five, hearing that Wuhua Island intended to eliminate them stirred them into a frenzy. They thought about Wuhua Island's actual strength and, in a rush of excitement, some rushed off to confront Wuhua Island.
Wuhua Island was baffled; several of their disciples had died under unclear circumstances, and now they were being besieged by rogue cultivators, becoming the target of everyone's ire. Wang Zhen found himself at a loss for words, and even more alarming was the sudden ambush from the Star River Sword Sect, which killed two disciples from Wuhua Island. If it weren't for the two Golden Core Cultivators restraining each other, the losses would have been unimaginable.
In an open area, New Moon Sect was facing off against Guo Shan Sword Sect. Each side had lost two disciples.
"You New Moon Sect are truly shameless, attacking from behind," Xie Liufang from Guo Shan Sword Sect shouted angrily as both sides had paused their fighting.
The two Golden Core Cultivators had each killed two disciples right off the bat, which was too much to bear. If this continued, even if they won, they would lose all their own members. Not only would they fail to achieve lasting fame, but they would also be remembered with infamy for ten thousand years.
Leading New Moon Sect was Golden Core Cultivator Huayuan Qiao, who was furious after Xie Liufang had just killed two of his disciples. New Moon Sect had not initiated any attacks against other sects during this incursion and did not expect such misfortune to befall them.
"We have some misunderstandings between us. Since two people have already died, let's stop this pointless fighting," Huayuan Qiao said. He did not want to continue the battle, especially with Qiu Wuling's precious disciple Cai Shujun present; if anything happened to her, it would be difficult to explain to Qiu Wuling.
"Two people? You’ve killed more than just two!" Xie Liufang retorted, now left with only three disciples behind him. In total, five of his disciples had already met their end.
"I'll say it again: I did not kill your people. If Guo Shan Sword Sect insists on blaming me, then so be it!" Huayuan Qiao was now enraged.
At that moment, a red light slipped past everyone's sight and silently entered the body of one of Guo Shan Sword Sect's disciples from behind. The disciple struggled briefly on the ground before dying.
Xie Liufang saw clearly now; this method of killing was identical to the previous one, and since the New Moon Sect members stood still without moving, he realized he had wrongly accused them.
"Who did this?" Xie Liufang shouted madly as he charged into the darkness. Two disciples from Guo Shan Sword Sect feared being caught by New Moon Sect and hurriedly followed after Xie Liufang.
Huayuan Qiao examined the bodies on the ground and muttered to himself, "Using qi as arrows—what a long-lasting spiritual power. This actually helps me out; I won't need to explain anything to Xie Liufang."
Using qi as arrows? Cai Shujun watched quietly.
"Cai Shujun, can you see anything?" Huayuan Qiao asked.
"Nothing," Cai Shujun replied. "I was just thinking about why this person would do such a thing." Cai Shujun's face was calm, but her eyes revealed increasingly complex emotions.
Xu Feng's repeated attacks on the disciples of the Guo Shan Sword Sect were also out of necessity. He had intended to create some chaos, but unexpectedly, that old fellow Xie Liufang really went to confront the New Moon Sect. If a Golden Core Cultivator intervened, what would happen if Cai Shujun got hurt?
Wait, why should Cai Shujun matter to Xu Feng? Uh, she is Qiu Wuling's disciple; he should take care of her appropriately. Yes, that's it, it must be that way...
With an arrow shot, Xu Feng was already prepared and flapped his wings to escape from Xie Liufang's line of sight.
More and more cultivators were rushing to Wuhua Island. Among these scattered cultivators, there were no Golden Core experts who could withstand Wang Zhen's assault. However, with sheer numbers and intelligence on their side, those scattered cultivators learned from their previous losses and stopped confronting Wuhua Island head-on. Instead, they began to avoid direct conflict and strike at weaknesses. As soon as any disciple from Wuyao Island left Wang Zhen's protection, they would immediately be besieged by the scattered cultivators, either dead or injured.
Out of ten disciples from Wuhua Island, only four remained.
Xu Feng flitted through the forest, using pills to replenish his depleting spiritual energy.
Xu Feng already had three sets of clothing in his ring: one from the Guo Shan Sword Sect, one from the Star River Sword Sect, and one from Wuhua Island. He would occasionally wear the different sects' clothing in various situations, causing mutual suspicion among the sects while leaving them without evidence.
Among the Foundation Establishment Practitioners being hunted by various sects, only Cai Shujun had participated in the Battle of Other Mountains; the others were newly formed troops. Even if they encountered Xu Feng face-to-face, they wouldn't recognize him. Not a single member of the Black Wind Race was present.
News from Modern Clerk always spread particularly fast. Within two hours, everyone knew that Xu Feng had entered the third level of It Mountain Temple. Even more outrageous was that everyone seemed to know what treasures Xu Feng had obtained.
"Did you hear? Yan Da from the Loose Cultivator Alliance entered the third level of It Mountain Temple!"
"Is that even news?"
"What? Do you have something more recent?"
"Of course, his Confining Dragon Rope was obtained from there; it's a treasure."
"What? Confining Dragon Rope? No, no, that's the old version. What he actually got was a Cultivation Method."
"Oh? What Cultivation Method?"
"Sky-Empty Technique."
"…"
The two loose cultivators were whispering under the tree, completely unaware that Xu Feng had arrived nearby.
Xu Feng, dressed in Wuhua Island attire, intentionally made some noise. Only then did the two realize, assessing their own strength. They jumped out, surrounding Xu Feng from both sides, and shouted, "Friend from Wuhua Island, what are you looking for? Do you need our help? Perhaps what you're searching for is in my storage bag." With that, they burst into laughter.
It was too dark; the two realized they were less than twenty meters away from Xu Feng. Since Xu Feng showed no intention of escaping, they managed to encircle him.
"Two friends, I advise you not to act recklessly. Our people from Wuhua Island are nearby. If you dare to make a move, they will quickly discover and kill you."
The two loose cultivators laughed even harder at this. One said, "You're really trying to scare us. If we hadn't just killed someone from Wuhua Island, we might have been fooled by you."
The other added, "Yeah, the people from Wuhua Island are being besieged by loose cultivators and are struggling to protect themselves. They're retreating now; do you really expect them to come back and save you?"
Xu Feng pretended to panic and asked, "What? Where did they go?"
One of the loose cultivators pointed in a direction and said, "If you can escape, head towards that tree over there. You might just make it; but even if you do catch up, it won't matter. Wuhua Island has at most three people left now. Besides, you won't be able to catch up." The two raised their swords and charged at him.
No wonder he couldn't find anyone from Wuhua Island; it turned out they had tucked their tails between their legs. Following the direction indicated by the loose cultivator, Xu Feng leaped forward and shot away like lightning.
Two rogue cultivators rushed over but ended up missing their target, looking at each other in confusion.
One said, "Do you think what just happened was real?"
The other replied, "It should be real. You stepped on my foot, and it hurt. It can't be fake."
Having narrowly escaped a disaster, the two rogue cultivators felt a lingering fear, regretting their misjudgment. If that disciple from Wuhua Island had attacked them, they would have likely lost their lives.
Xu Feng did not kill them; what he wanted were rogue cultivators brave enough to assassinate Wuhua Island. He broke through the encirclement and spread his wings, chasing in the direction of Wuhua Island's retreat.
Ten minutes later, he indeed spotted the group from Wuhua Island making their way back.
Three disciples were following behind Wang Zhen in disarray, their hair messy and faces pale. Wang Zhen, on the other hand, wore an expression of anger, as if he had suffered a great grievance.
Xu Feng found a good position and drew the Moonchaser Bow to its full moon state, an ethereal Fire Element One Star Spiritual Arrow seemingly suspended in the center of the crescent moon.
