Chapter 139: The Invisible Adversary

As the Light Screen shattered, the red flames on Lu Fang's high-grade Spiritual Weapon did not extinguish. Instead, they continued to burn fiercely.

The Foundation Building cultivator from the Shadow Kill sect wore a maniacal expression as he raised his hand, directing several techniques towards the flag in his hand.

He held the main flag of the Red Sun Separation Fire Formation, allowing him to control the entire formation.

At this moment, the Spiritual Power within the ten Foundation Building cultivators surged madly toward the flag in his hand.

All this Spiritual Power converged onto the blazing red flames, causing them to intensify instantly.

Lu Fang's high-grade Spiritual Weapon gradually weakened, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead.

"Fellow Daoists, please hurry. I won't be able to hold on much longer," Lu Fang called out.

The others responded by launching more than twenty Magical Weapons at the ten individuals in the center. With the Light Screen shattered, there was no barrier to stop them.

The Foundation Building cultivator continued to manipulate the Red Sun Separation Fire Formation, and the Spiritual Power within the other nine individuals poured uncontrollably into the flag.

The red flames grew larger and larger. Just as the Magical Weapons approached, the flames exploded, emitting a dazzling and blinding light.

The intense light made it difficult for everyone to open their eyes. When the brilliance faded, they saw a large crater in the center. The nine Shadow Kill Foundation Building cultivators lay dead on the ground.

Lu Fang's high-grade Spiritual Weapon had been shattered, and the explosion had thrown him several yards away, a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Lu Fang's pain was not from the injuries but the destruction of his Spiritual Weapon. It was a top-tier creation refined over countless years with materials that couldn't be easily acquired, even with Spirit Stones.

He would rather endure more injuries himself than see his precious Spiritual Weapon damaged. Injuries would heal, but a cracked Spiritual Weapon couldn't be restored.

After careful inspection, the group couldn't find the Foundation Building cultivator from Shadow Kill. They searched the surroundings but found no trace of him.

Wang Hong, who was observing the battle from the rooftop, suddenly felt a chill, sensing impending danger.

The Shadow Kill Organization was indeed wealthy, with each person's Storage Bag containing considerable wealth. There were over three hundred Nourishing Essence Pills, more than two million Spirit Stones, and various second-tier Spiritual Objects such as Spiritual Herbs, spirit ore, Magical Weapons, making the remaining twenty-seven individuals quite pleased.

In the end, it was thanks to Lu Fang using his high-grade Spiritual Weapon to withstand the powerful red flames; otherwise, someone from their group might have perished in the inferno.

Consequently, Lu Fang received the most loot, getting thirty Nourishing Essence Pills, two hundred thousand Spirit Stones, and many other second-tier Spiritual Objects, significantly improving his mood.

After dividing the spoils, Senior Brother Gao and the City Guard had to return to report. The Elder Brother and other Foundation Building cultivators decided to stay in Azure Void City for a few days before returning to the sect.

"Elder Brother, I need to visit my home around here. I'll leave for a while. I'll treat you to drinks at my tavern when I'm back."

Wang Hong decided to find an excuse to leave alone; he had many things to attend to, and it wasn't convenient with a crowd.

"Junior Brother Wang, be careful. That Foundation Building cultivator from Shadow Kill likely escaped during the chaos. If anything happens, contact me anytime."

"Sure, thank you, Elder Brother!"

Zhang Chunfeng wanted to leave with him, but Wang Hong stopped him with a glance.

After Wang Hong left alone, he released a few Spirit Bees.

During this time, he had trained hundreds of Spirit Bees specifically for tracking.

Training them was challenging due to their low intelligence. Currently, these tracking Spirit Bees could only follow a specific scent.

Using pollen from the Green Spirit Peach, processed into fine powder, he scattered it into the air like dust. It was nearly undetectable when it landed on the body.

The Spirit Bees could then trace a target up to ten miles away based on the faint scent emitted by this fine powder.

On the rooftop earlier, he pretended to stroll around while secretly dispersing this powder into the air. Additionally, he subtly added a bit of poison.
