The Demon Cultivator floated in the air, its purple eyes fixed intently on the ground. Within the purple gaze lay darkness, yet it found the once-bright ground completely empty, leaving only a residual shadow.
"Has it escaped?" the Demon Cultivator murmured coldly, puzzled.
"I'm behind you!" The voice of Azure Vine suddenly rang out from behind the Demon Cultivator. It had no time to turn around and hurriedly flew far away, staring in shock at Azure Vine.
Azure Vine looked coldly at the Demon Cultivator and said lightly, "Your cultivation level is too low; you are not my opponent at all!"
"Really?" The Demon Cultivator chuckled as it looked at Azure Vine, gradually gathering energy in its right hand to form a purple sphere, shouting into the air, "Wind Control Technique, Reincarnation of the Demon Dragon!” As the voice faded, a sudden thunderclap echoed across the clear sky.
Lingfeng was sound asleep but was abruptly awakened by the sound of thunder. In a daze, he mumbled something but soon realized that he was alone.
"Brother?" Lingfeng squinted in the darkness, searching for Azure Vine, but the guest room was eerily quiet, with no trace of Azure Vine.
At that moment, hurried footsteps sounded outside the room, accompanied by someone calling out Lingfeng's name—it was the voice of State Government.
Lingfeng quickly rolled out of bed and opened the door, only to hear State Government say urgently, "There was a thunderclap just now; it seems something has happened!"
"What's so surprising about thunder?" Lingfeng replied sleepily and listlessly.
"But... but look at the sky!" State Government pointed upwards.
Lingfeng looked up and saw countless stars twinkling. Then he froze in shock; it was clearly clear weather—where did the thunder come from?
While he was puzzled, he suddenly heard a furious roar that resembled a beast's growl. Then he saw a massive black pillar standing tall amidst the darkness in the distance.
"What is that thing?" Lingfeng asked blankly.
State Government shook his head, gripping the sword tightly, and said, "Let's go take a look!"
Lingfeng responded and hurriedly followed State Government.
It turned out that the Wind Manipulating Sorcerer, realizing he was outmatched, unleashed all his abilities, even using his most powerful Spell, Dragon Transformation Wind. Dragon Transformation Wind is similar to a Tornado, but this type of Spell not only gathers gas from thin air to form a Tornado, but also conjures poisonous dragons within the Tornado. Those caught in the Tornado not only lose control of their bodies but are also attacked by the poisonous dragons, often resulting in a Narrow Escape.
Although Azure Vine had heard of this type of Spell, he had never seen it in person or experienced it himself, and he had no idea how to counter it.
The assassin looked coldly at Azure Vine and mocked, "Do you think my cultivation can’t compare to yours now?"
Azure Vine remained silent, glancing at the massive Tornado, thinking that if he didn’t escape now, his life would be in danger. However, if he ran away and angered this person, the innocent civilians could suffer disaster. After much contemplation, Azure Vine finally made a decision. He secretly formed a hand seal with his right hand and softly recited a spell, enveloping himself in a protective barrier.
The assassin sneered and lightly waved his hands. The enormous Tornado immediately roared to life, spinning faster and faster, leaving destruction in its wake among the surrounding trees. The sand on the ground was sucked into the Tornado, transforming into poisonous dragons.
"Are you still going to fight?" the assassin said wickedly.
Azure Vine quietly glanced at the assassin, a fleeting glimmer passing through his eyes, then his body trembled slightly for just an instant.
"Hahaha..." The man laughed arrogantly. "Is this what they call a cultivator? Facing such a scene, you're actually trembling!" He noticed Azure Vine's shuddering and mocked him.
However, Azure Vine remained motionless in the air, as if petrified in an instant.
The man looked at Azure Vine with confusion and then snorted. The Tornado swept toward Azure Vine. Yet, Azure Vine still did not dodge and was drawn into the Tornado.
"Is it really going to end this easily?" The assassin seemed somewhat disappointed as he spoke.
"Of course it’s not over!" Azure Vine’s voice echoed from behind the assassin, giving off an elusive feeling.
The assassin was momentarily stunned, just about to turn around when suddenly a gas struck his back. His body seemed to lose control of gravity and shot straight into the air.
"After all, you are just a low-level Demon Cultivator. You didn't notice my teleportation technique twice!" Azure Vine said disdainfully.
The assassin was knocked far away before finally coming to a stop. He coughed violently a couple of times, emitting a burst of purple light, and angrily said, "Using such despicable means, is this what cultivators do?" Without wasting any more time, he quickly waved his hands, and a Tornado surged forward like a hungry beast towards Azure Vine.
Azure Vine inhaled sharply, preparing to use the teleportation technique again.
"If you dare run, I will ensure that the residents here have no place to be buried!" The assassin seemed to see through Azure Vine's hesitation and threatened him.
Azure Vine knew that this kind of Demon Cultivator had long since surrendered their soul to the demon god and was fearless in the face of death. They did not care about their own lives, nor would they care about the lives of others, and they were capable of acting on it.
However, in Azure Vine's view, it was worth it to exchange his own name for the lives of countless innocent people. Moreover, this assassin was targeting him; there was no need for innocent people to pay the price for him.
Just as Azure Vine was feeling desperate, a barely perceptible movement in the wind caught his attention. This sensation felt familiar, reminiscent of something he had experienced before.
Then, the assassin's maniacal laughter abruptly stopped. The purple light within him began to spill out and disperse towards the ground. After two seconds of stillness, his head suddenly exploded, and his body plunged downwards. The massive Tornado deflated like a balloon without support from spiritual energy and instantly vanished.
On the ground, Lingfeng and the State Government stood there, with Lingfeng's right hand still in the position of throwing a dart.
Seeing this situation, Azure Vine understood what had happened. Clearly, the dart thrown by Lingfeng had taken the assassin's life.
Azure Vine was safe but saw the Demonic Energy emanating from the assassin flying towards Lingfeng. Surprised, he was about to rush towards Lingfeng when he noticed that all that purple gas completely entered Lingfeng's body, absorbed entirely by him.
"Lingfeng!" Azure Vine landed on the ground, looking at Lingfeng in disbelief.
Meanwhile, Lingfeng felt his entire body filled to saturation as if he were about to explode. The two streams of Spiritual Energy within him fought fiercely against each other. Lingfeng's body once again became a battlefield for these two energies, and pain returned anew.
Lingfeng did not dare to be negligent and quickly sat down to cultivate. After a while, feeling somewhat stable, he got up to practice the Falling Leaf Technique, suppressing the Demonic Energy he had inadvertently absorbed into his Dantian. With the experience from last time, Lingfeng already knew how to control the two types of energy within him, making it effortless.
After some time, Lingfeng finally stood up and looked apologetically at the astonished Azure Vine.
"You... you started Demon Cultivation?" Azure Vine asked in disbelief.
Lingfeng showed a troubled expression, glancing at the State Government and then at Azure Vine, slowly saying, "Actually, I am practicing both Celestial and Demonic cultivation!"
This surprised even the State Government, which had always thought that Lingfeng was just an ordinary cultivator; they never expected him to be a once-in-a-thousand-years Dual Cultivator of Immortal and Demon.
Under normal circumstances, if someone with insufficient aptitude chose to practice Celestial and Demonic cultivation, they would often suffer backlash or even self-detonation before breaking through the foundation stage due to the opposing forces of the two types of Spiritual Energy.
However, at this moment, Lingfeng had already reached the early stage of Rotation of Light, and he could effortlessly absorb a large amount of Demonic Energy. What an extraordinary aptitude he had.
Seeing that both were in disbelief, Lingfeng mischievously smiled and said, "Actually, I am cultivating the Falling Leaf Technique!"
As soon as Lingfeng spoke, the air suddenly fell silent. It was an unusual atmosphere—somewhat oppressive and tense, yet devoid of any dangerous aura.
"Why... why aren't you speaking?" Seeing both staring at him, Lingfeng finally couldn't hold back.
Azure Vine gasped in shock and asked, "Where did you get the Falling Leaf Technique, and when did you start cultivating it?"
"This..." Although the relationship between Lingfeng and Azure Vine could not be described as ordinary, he was still unsure whether he should tell Azure Vine about Lame Li.
"Why aren't you speaking?" Azure Vine pressed again.
After biting his lip, Lingfeng finally revealed what had happened with Lame Li and Ziren.
State Government sighed and slowly nodded, saying, "I know Ziren is a Demon Cultivator, but I didn't expect the Falling Leaf Technique to be in his hands."
"But why didn't you tell me you were practicing the Falling Leaf Technique? If I had known, I wouldn't have left!" Azure Vine asked, somewhat angrily and dissatisfied.
Lingfeng stuck out his tongue, realizing he was in the wrong, and said, "Back then, I was very curious about the Falling Leaf Technique, so I chose to practice it. I just didn't expect that this supreme martial art would be the foundation for practicing the Falling Leaf Technique, leading me to become uncontrollable and unable to stop my cultivation!"
State Government sighed and said thoughtfully, "Years ago, I ordered the Falling Leaf Technique to be sealed and gathered many cultivators. However, I didn't expect that many Demon Cultivators would emerge along the way. Those Demon Cultivators took advantage of the situation and incited the cultivators into a war over the Falling Leaf Technique. But later, the Falling Leaf Technique disappeared, and I never thought it would reappear today; it seems this is fate!"
"Brother..." Lingfeng looked at Azure Vine timidly, like a child who had done something wrong.
Azure Vine let out a long sigh but felt helpless. Since Lingfeng possessed the dual cultivation talent of Celestial and Demonic, and now practiced the Falling Leaf Technique, it was like an arrow released from a bow with no chance of turning back.
After a while, Azure Vine slowly spoke, "The Falling Leaf Technique is a treasure in the eyes of many Demon Cultivators. Until you reach a level of cultivation sufficient for self-protection, you must never reveal anything about the Falling Leaf Technique, or it will bring about unforeseen disasters!"
Despite everything, Azure Vine still cared for Lingfeng, offering comfort. Lingfeng felt a surge of emotion and nodded happily.
"By the way, how did you kill that assassin just now?" Azure Vine asked.
