With Fire Against Fire, the Spirit Talisman shattered in a single blow.
In the White Mist, a pair of Dark Wings opened up a space and then landed on a tree in the forbidden area of the Wan Jian Sect, just a hundred steps away from everyone.
It was him! It was Xu Feng from the New Moon Sect!
Zhu Wanda seemed to have already known Xu Feng's whereabouts and showed no signs of surprise.
However, both Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master were taken aback. The reputation of Xu Feng had spread far and wide; this guy, who was only at the Early Stage of Golden Core, had slain a Late Stage of Golden Core cultivator from the Nine Dragon Pool. No one knew just how strong his true combat power was.
Both Spirit Serpent Cave Master and Billy the Bull had only heard of Xu Feng's name but had never seen him in person. They only knew that he was the only one with a pair of Wings of the Strange Dragon.
Billy the Bull shouted, "Is the one who comes Xu Feng from the New Moon Sect?"
"Indeed," Xu Feng replied with a smile. "I have yet to ask for your esteemed names, fellow Daoists."
"Billy the Bull, Master of Black Wind Stronghold."
"Spirit Serpent Cave Master, from Eight Directions Cave."
As Xu Feng's Wings of the Strange Dragon fluttered in the sky, ready to take flight, he called out loudly, "I suggest you two return for now. Let's end today's matter here. We can have tea and chat when we meet; we are still friends."
Billy the Bull retorted, "Hmph! Are you trying to make us back down, Xu Daoyou? Although the New Moon Sect is not weak, my Black Wind Stronghold is not to be trifled with."
"Exactly!" echoed the Spirit Serpent Cave Master. "Eight Directions Cave is no weaker than the New Moon Sect. If it comes to a fight, you won't be able to handle it. If you want us to back down, there's no way!"
Both of them were somewhat wary of the influence of the New Moon Sect and did not dare to offend Xu Feng too much. However, Xu Feng's attempt to single-handedly force them to retreat was indeed a bit presumptuous.
"You two have misunderstood," Xu Feng said. "I am not here on behalf of the New Moon Sect, but to help a brother."
Upon hearing that he was not representing the New Moon Sect, Billy the Bull felt relieved and said, "Since you are not a representative of the New Moon Sect, what does it mean for you, Xu Daoyou, to interfere? Are you trying to say that my Black Wind Stronghold has no one?" Billy the Bull was two levels higher than Xu Feng and was not afraid of a one-on-one confrontation.
The Spirit Serpent Cave Master observed the situation and remained silent for now.
Zhu Wanda spoke softly, "Xu Feng, I don't care who you represent. If you want me to leave Wan Jian Sect, you might be disappointed." His voice was not loud, but it was filled with fighting spirit.
Zhu Wanda was a senior figure in Wan Jian Sect, having lived alone for over seven hundred years and nearing the end of his life. After the Nine Dragon Pool annihilated his sect and he sustained serious injuries, he felt disheartened and prepared to end his life within the forbidden grounds of Wan Jian Sect.
Seeing his despondency and apparent determination to die at Bailu Mountain, Xu Feng said, "Senior, I will not interfere with what you do, nor am I here to target Wan Jian Sect. I am just here to fulfill a duty for a brother of mine."
"You must be Gao Jingsong," an elder from Wan Jian Sect seemed to have already guessed who Xu Feng's brother was.
Xu Feng was somewhat surprised and replied, "So you already knew."
"Of course we knew," another elder said. "Because it was us who expelled him from Wan Jian Sect."
Xu Feng suddenly understood; Gao Jingsong had refused to share details about his time in Wan Jian Sect because he had been expelled by the elders. As Wan Jian Sect faced imminent destruction, several elders decided to expel Gao Jingsong in order to protect him as their only remaining hope.
Given that Gao Jingsong was at the Foundation Establishment Stage and injured, he posed no threat to other sects. Such a dispensable disciple could easily be let go.
Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master listened impatiently from the side. Seeing Xu Feng's intention to intervene, they realized that without showing some strength today, they might not gain any benefits.
Billy the Bull shouted, "Xu Feng, if the New Moon Sect intends to occupy Wan Jian Sect, my Black Wind Stronghold will turn around and leave without a word. Since Chu Zhangmen has no such intention, that's another matter." He wasn't a fool; before coming here, he learned that the New Moon Sect was competing with the other four factions for control of Qinglong Mountain and couldn't spare attention for this place, which gave him an opportunity.
Unexpectedly, Eight Directions Cave emerged halfway through and disrupted his plans. Now, with a formidable Xu Feng appearing, he found himself in a troublesome situation where he couldn't kill him or drive him away.
Spirit Serpent Cave Master added, "The Bull Leader is right. You and those old ghosts are just trying to gain benefits from Wan Jian Sect. What Gao Jingsong? It's all nonsense; don't think I don't know."
Xu Feng, now possessing the strength to fight against someone at the Late Stage of Golden Core, felt his expression turn cold upon hearing Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master's words. "What do you both think?" he asked.
Billy the Bull replied, "Don't think I'm not giving face to the New Moon Sect. Since you insist on intervening, let's do it the old way: we fight a match, and whoever wins takes Wan Jian Sect." Billy the Bull was quite arrogant and didn't regard Zhu Wanda at all.
Xu Feng said, "Once again, I'm here to help my brother. I won't let you touch Wan Jian Sect—at least not now."
Spirit Serpent Cave Master ominously remarked, "If you won't act, then fine. My Eight Directions Cave may not be as strong as the New Moon Sect, but you can't just dismiss us with a single sentence." At this point, the facade had been torn away.
Xu Feng spread his giant wings and flew up again. The Moonchaser Bow flashed with blue light as it appeared in his hand. "Then let's see what each of us can do!"
Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master were unwilling to back down either; they both unleashed their Flying Swords and leaped into the sky. The disciples of both factions on the ground were eager to join the battle at any moment.
With one bow and two swords ready for action, tension filled the air.
Zhu Wanda waved his hand and retreated with two elders to observe from the sidelines.
Xu Feng shouted, "Both of you, stop right there. We can still part as friends, but if you insist on being stubborn, don't blame me for being ruthless." Xu Feng had some connections with Black Wind Stronghold from their time in the Otherworldly Secret Realm. During the battle with Xu Ye, he also collaborated with Lan Xiao. Both factions had some ties to Xu Feng, so he felt the need to remind them once more.
"If you withdraw now, we won't make things difficult for you."
"Remember, blades and arrows have no eyes; don't blame us if we strike too hard."
It was pointless to continue talking. Xu Feng activated the Wings of the Strange Dragon and pulled back a distance while simultaneously shooting two arrows at the two opponents. Xu Feng was the first to attack.
Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master lacked wings and could only use Flying Swords. Their cultivation levels were higher than Xu Feng's, allowing their Flying Swords to be slightly faster. They each drew a spirit sword and charged at Xu Feng.
Clang! The two spirit swords were deflected. Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master were taken aback by the strength of Xu Feng's Arrow Force! This was far beyond the capabilities of someone at the Early Stage of Golden Core; it even surpassed that of a Mid-Stage Golden Core cultivator. No wonder Xu Feng had astonished everyone in just ten years—his Arrow Force truly lived up to its reputation.
It should be noted that Xu Feng's Moonchaser Bow had been modified by Long Ye, making it nearly on par with magical treasures. Coupled with the double Arrow Meridian attribute, a single shot was comparable to a full-force strike from a Late Golden Core Cultivator.
Billy the Bull and his companion were seasoned figures; after their initial shock, they quickly adjusted their strategy. They split apart, using their speed advantage to close in on Xu Feng while unleashing several large Martial Talismans in an attempt to slow down his flight.
Xu Feng maneuvered through the mist, trying to maintain an optimal distance, but that distance continued to shrink. The fog on Bailu Mountain wasn't too thick compared to Mist City, allowing Billy the Bull and his partner to see Xu Feng within his shooting range.
Spiritual Arrows collided with sword energy and talismans in the sky, causing explosions.
The Foundation Disciples on the ground watched in dizzying awe, while even a few Golden Core Cultivators felt their hearts race. They were all ordinary people without wings; if they were hit and fell, they would die on the spot.
Zhu Wanda observed for a while and couldn't help but furrow his brow. This Xu Feng was too strange; despite only being at the Early Stage of Golden Core, he could unleash power comparable to that of someone at Mid-Stage. However, facing two opponents while being two levels lower was still concerning.
“Ten Thousand Snakes Return to the Nest!”
“Chameleon Tick!”
Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master finally closed in on Xu Feng, unleashing their deadly moves simultaneously.
The Spirit Serpent Cave Master swung out hundreds of silver snakes forged from fine steel, sweeping in from the right. Billy the Bull threw a bag of iron lumps, crashing in from the left. After years of battling together, they had developed an instinctive synergy.
Both relied on overwhelming numbers, disregarding specific positions; as long as they created a wide enough area of attack, there would be weapons waiting for anyone trying to evade. This kind of technique was costly but immensely powerful.
Both were feeling a bit anxious; their opponent had wings and was using a long-range spiritual bow. If this dragged on, they would surely be at a disadvantage. Thus, as soon as they got close, both used their strongest moves in unison, aiming to defeat their enemy in one round.
Zhu Wanda remained calm, showing no intention of intervening. In the past, he could have easily blown away such attacks with a flick of his sleeve, but now he no longer had that capability.
“Come at me!” Xu Feng no longer hid his strength. He waved his hand, and a burst of sparks appeared, spreading around him and enveloping his entire body. Amidst the swirling sparks, a dragon's head flickered in and out of view, roaring fiercely.
“Medium-Grade Magical Artifact!” Zhu Wanda nodded slightly.
Billy the Bull and Spirit Serpent Cave Master were so shocked they nearly fell off their Flying Sword.
What Xu Feng unleashed was the Fire Dragon Whip, obtained from Xu Ye. The Fire Dragon Whip formed a protective barrier that blocked the incoming powerful spiritual artifacts. As those artifacts touched the glow of the Fire Dragon Whip, they all fell away. A few managed to break through the defense and struck Xu Feng, but were mercilessly deflected by his Supreme Quality Armor.
In an instant, both powerful attacks crumbled to dust.
"Run!" Billy the Bull was the first to turn around, charging away like a mad bull. He knew the power of the magical artifact; he could barely withstand an Inferior Magical Artifact, but when faced with a Medium-Grade Magical Artifact, he could only run for his life.
Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. Xu Feng's Fire Dragon Whip ruthlessly wrapped around his body, and with a gentle tug, Billy the Bull shot down to the ground like a cannonball.
"Boom!" A large "大" character was left imprinted on the ground, and disciples from Black Wind Stronghold hurried over to dig the half-conscious Billy the Bull out of the dirt.
"Hey?" One disciple pointed at the character left by Billy the Bull and said, "This doesn't look like '大'; it looks more like '太'." Upon hearing this, the recently rescued Billy the Bull fainted again.
After dealing with Billy the Bull with a single whip, Xu Feng turned around to see that the Spirit Serpent Cave Master had already fled over a hundred meters away, flying desperately without even daring to look back.
With such an impressive magical artifact, why didn't you use it earlier? If you had this artifact before, we wouldn't have bothered fighting at all. The Wan Jian Sect couldn't even buy back a Medium-Grade Magical Artifact if they sold it; damn it, pretending to be weak while hiding strength. The Spirit Serpent Cave Master cursed in frustration while fleeing for his life.
With one whip, the situation was settled.
Xu Feng did not pursue. The disciples from Black Wind Stronghold carried Billy the Bull and ran away like the wind, while those from Eight Directions Cave had already vanished without a trace.
