“Dead, the knights are all dead!”

“How can this be, isn’t this brat too powerful? He actually killed all the knights.”

“Let’s flee quickly, or we will all die here!”

Upon seeing Lin Feng kill the skywolf knights in such fashion, the mercenaries that had surrounded Zhang Qichu and the others were so frightened that they had completely lost their guts.

Even the weakest skywolf knights had a cultivation base at the ninth-level of the Martial Student Realm. Also, Scarface himself was a cultivator at the tenth-level. Them, in addition to the powerful impact force of the sky wolves, even a tenth-level martial student could be easily killed if he or she wasn’t careful.

However, so many experts were actually killed by Lin Feng in the blink of an eye.

These ordinary mercenaries were almost frightened to death.

Seeing all this, how would they still dare to surround and attack Zhang Qichu and the others? They immediately turned and fled into the distance.

There were simply too many people, and there was no way to pursue all of them.

Although Zhang Qichu and the others knew that Lin Feng was very powerful, now that they personally saw him slaughtering tens of skywolf knights in such a short time, they were still incomparably shocked.

“Let’s ride these sky wolves and be on our way. Our traveling speed will be much faster.” Lin Feng leaped onto the back of a sky wolf.

These sky wolves all had ferocious and brutal personalities.

But now, all of them were trembling.

The might Lin Feng had displayed earlier had shocked all these sky wolves.

Zhang Qichu and the others also leaped onto the backs of the other sky wolves. The seven of them then galloped into the distance.

But a day later, someone caught up to them.

This person was a young man about twenty years of age. He rode an even larger sky wolf and had a black iron spear in his hands.

“Daring to kill the people of my Skywolf Mercenary Group? You people all ought to die.”

The voice of this young master was cold, filled with sinister killing intent.

“Duanmu Yan!” Ouyang Li exclaimed in shock.

“There’s actually someone who knows me?” Duanmu Yan’s eyes shone with killing intent.

Su Zimo exclaimed, “So he is Duanmu Yan? This person is the eldest son of the Skywolf Mercenary Group’s leader. His cultivation base is at the Martial Master Realm.”

The Skywolf Mercenary Leader had a total of three sons.

The youngest was Duanmu Feiyang, who had been killed by Lin Feng, and this Duanmu Yan was the eldest and the one with the highest talent out of the three brothers.

“You guys leave first, I will hold him back,” Lin Feng spoke.

“But…” Zhang Qichu and the others wanted to say something but were interrupted by Lin Feng. “Could it be that you guys still don’t trust my strength?”

“We will only be burdens if we remain. But junior brother, you have to be careful!” Zhang Qichu and the others called out. After that, they rode the sky wolves and left the area.

“Brat, you are courting death!”

Duanmu Yan coldly snorted. He wielded a black iron spear and rode on a sky wolf, rushing toward Lin Feng.

The black spear in his hands directly stabbed Lin Feng.

“Kill!”

Lin Feng patted his sky wolf on the head.

The sky wolf beneath him let out a low roar and rushed toward Duanmu Yan. At the same time, he pulled out his sword and slashed toward Duanmu Yan.

Swish~

Keng, keng, keng…

The black spears collided against Lin Feng’s sword, producing the clanging sound of metal upon metal. Duanmu Yan’s strength was extremely powerful. After every exchange, the terrifying force in the blows would travel into Lin Feng’s body. Even an expert at the tenth-level of the Martial Student Realm would have long since been shocked to death from the impact.

However, Lin Feng cultivated the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art. Although he was only at the ninth-level of the Martial Student Realm, the toughness of his body was already equal to a martial master. In addition, when the terrifying force gushed into Lin Feng’s body, Lin Feng directly circulated the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art to dissipate the force. Hence, he wasn’t injured.

“Damn!” Duanmu Yan’s expression was incomparably gloomy. He, a martial master, actually fought tens of rounds against this tiny martial student without being able to secure victory. This caused Duanmu Yan to feel a deep sense of shame.

The black spear in his hands stabbed toward Lin Feng. This strike contained over a million jin of strength, and this was also the first time Duanmu Yan had used all his power. Upon sensing the terrifying points of this attack, Lin Feng’s expression changed, and he rapidly leaped off his sky wolf to evade. The spear strike failed to hit Lin Feng, but it crushed the sky wolf Lin Feng had been riding on into meat paste. From this, one could see how fearsome this attack was.

“Today, this daddy will play with you only until now. I won’t join you any longer.” Lin Feng laughed loudly. After that, he fled into the forest and all traces of him soon disappeared in the blink of an eye. Duanmu Yan did a search but couldn’t find Lin Feng. Hence, he could only depart here, fuming with anger.

In the forest, a young man with a sword strapped on his back swiftly sped through.

It was none other than Lin Feng.

The fight with Duanmu Yan actually allowed Lin Feng to gain plenty of benefits.

An expert at the Martial Master Realm was indeed not an existence a martial student could compare against.

This further ignited Lin Feng’s battle will.

“Martial Master Realm.” This was Lin Feng’s first goal.

Five days later, he arrived at the Yellow Spring Stream.

It was rumored that the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water would appear here.

The Nine Serenities was a corner of hell and the Yellow Spring Water was a type of holy water that flew inside the Yellow Spring River. In the myths, Granny Meng would give the deceased souls the ‘Granny Meng Soup’. After they drank it, they would forget all the memories of their previous lives. The Granny Meng Soup was none other than something concocted from the Yellow Spring Water and a few other ingredients.

Naturally, these were only some myths that were passed around.

The true Nine Serenities could really be considered as an extremely rare supreme soul treasure.

When Lin Feng came to the Yellow Spring Stream, he heard intense sounds of combat drifting over.

He swiftly entered the Yellow Spring Stream.

Within it, two groups were clashing with each other. One was a group of devils, and their leader had white fur all over its body and was extremely hideous. It was none other than a white-haired asura. This was an expert of the devil race, and all white-haired asuras had strength at the Martial Master Realm. The other group fighting against these devils was the Skywolf Mercenary Group. The person in the lead was none other than Duanmu Yan who had just fought against Lin Feng a few days ago.

On the ground, several hundreds of corpses could be seen. There were corpses of the devils, unaffiliated cultivators, skywolf mercenaries, and even students from the various academies.

During this period, many people had come to the Yellow Spring Stream, wanting to acquire the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water, and today was the calculated day that the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water would appear. The strongest two groups—the subterranean devil races and Skywolf Mercenary Group—killed all the other cultivators before starting a fight to the death. Lin Feng scanned the corpses and didn’t discover the bodies of Zhang Qichu and his other friends. Only then did he set his heart at ease. It seemed like Zhang Qichu and the rest didn’t come here. They must have changed their plans.

“Bzz~” Just when the skywolf mercenaries were fighting against the devils of the subterranean world, a large fluctuation suddenly erupted from the depths of the Yellow Spring Stream.

At the depths of the stream, there was a cave. In the legends, this cave was named the ‘Death Cave’. It was rumored that even for Yin Yang Realm experts, they would die for sure if they dared to enter this cave. But every one thousand years, some types of gases would be emitted from within the Death Cave. These gases upon encountering the outside air would turn into liquid, and it was none other than the Nine Serenities Yellow Spring Water.

There were also the widely spread rumors saying that the Death Cave connected with hell, and that the Yellow Spring Water in the Death Cave flowed out from the Yellow Spring River.

And at this moment, a ball of gas floated out from the Death Cave and rapidly condensed into a faint yellowish liquid that remained floating in the air. This ball of liquid contained startling energy fluctuations.

“The Nine Serenities Spring Water has appeared.” Lin Feng’s eyes gleamed with a bright light.
