Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 921: Chapter 710: Identity Exposed

Regarding Wang Mian’s shock, Lin Feng remained indifferent, with no hint of arrogance on his face.

This was not humility.

To be able to kill a Lifebound Demon Spirit with Earth Chart powers at the King Realm is indeed something to be proud of.

What’s more, even among the Extraordinary, Lou Yuan was a troublesome character.

If this combat achievement were to spread, it would be enough to cause a worldwide sensation.

It might even cause emperors on the Divine Martial Continent to panic.

Lin Feng isn’t even an Emperor, yet he can kill the Extraordinary.

What will happen once he becomes an Emperor?

The record is glorious, but Lin Feng knows that the combat ended so quickly mainly because of Wang Mian’s support.

Just now, it seemed as if he easily killed a powerful Extraordinary powerhouse in close combat, but it wasn’t that easy.

Lou Yuan’s Petrification is a very perfect skill; otherwise, Lin Feng wouldn’t want to acquire this Soul Skill.

This ability is powerful both in attack and defense.

It could even be described as perfect, without flaws.

Moreover, it is the Petrification ability of the Earth Chart Medusa, far surpassing other Demon Spirits.

It’s just because Lou Yuan was deeply trapped in Wang Mian’s "Death Rain" domain, constantly needing to release defenses to block, consuming a large amount of Spiritual Power and Soul Power, unable to perform many attack methods freely.

Plus, with Lin Feng’s rogue-like Divine Skill [Stand], the combination made Lou Yuan appear powerless.

Domains are a capability most Emperors don’t have.

Once trapped in a Domain, no matter how perfect the ability, it is difficult to use freely, always needing to resist the domain’s damage.

The best solution to facing a Domain is to leave.

It’s not that Lou Yuan wasn’t strong, it’s just that he had bad luck, happening to meet Lin Feng and Wang Mian’s ambush, making it hard for him to escape.

In the domain, even sound and movement were perfectly isolated.

Of course, there was also Lou Yuan’s misjudgment of Lin Feng’s strength, easily getting close and allowing Lin Feng to seize the opportunity.

Inside the domain, Bubble’s attacks were limited, unable to perform effective long-range attacks; without getting close, Lin Feng alone couldn’t kill the opponent.

It can be said that Lou Yuan died very unjustly.

If it had been two other Emperors ambushing, even if he couldn’t win, he could have protected himself.

"What a powerful Petrification ability."

Lin Feng looked down at his more than one-third petrified body, feeling a bit sentimental and fearful.

Even with his physique, he was petrified to this extent in just a few seconds. If it were another King, the whole person might have been petrified.

A few seconds more, and Lin Feng might not have been able to withstand it.

Lin Feng pulled out the dagger still stuck in his left arm with his right hand.

The dagger looked ordinary, but it was a valuable advanced Spiritual Artifact.

After storing the dagger, Lin Feng put Lou Yuan’s body into the space ring.

After Lou Yuan’s death, the petrification didn’t stop; it continued slowly.

At this moment, Lin Feng’s body appeared very stiff.

Even with Qi and Blood flushing the petrified parts, it took a while for the petrification to dissipate and the body to return to normal.

Beside him, Wang Mian remained calm, making no comment.

This was the spoils of war, and he had the right to share it evenly.

A Spiritual Artifact refined by an Extraordinary powerhouse with petrification ability is worth over 10 billion.

With current prices, even 30 or 50 billion is possible.

For Wang Mian, this sum of money is not small.

He didn’t speak up, not because he was generous, nor because he lacked the confidence or qualifications to share.

It’s just that, for him, eliminating the consciousness of White Clothes is the crisis he most urgently needs to solve.

He needs Lin Feng’s help.

As long as he can eliminate White Clothes’ consciousness, everything else is secondary.

Lin Feng understood this as well.

Wang Mian was so sensible, so measured, that Lin Feng almost felt embarrassed... to kill him.

"Mission accomplished. Should we head back directly?"

Wang Mian asked.

They were on the Divine Martial Continent, and if exposed, the consequences would be severe.

If they indeed drew the siege of Emperors, even they would find it hard to escape.

"Yes."

Lin Feng nodded, not intending to stay long.

Though appearances can be disguised and aura hidden, once they make a move, the unique human aura would be exposed.

So, the sooner they leave, the safer it is.

If they wait until the news spreads, it wouldn’t be so easy to leave.

This is also why Lin Feng wanted to take Lou Yuan’s body away.

With a simple tidy-up, Lin Feng was the first to step out of the study.

And the plain-looking Wang Mian followed behind him, like a little servant.

The path was smooth.

Seeing the aristocratic-looking Lin Feng, with a noble aura, the patrolling guards in the mansion dared not step forward to inquire.

As they hurriedly walked, just as the two were about to step out of the City Lord’s Mansion, a deafening screech echoed throughout every corner of Wuyun City.

"Citywide lockdown! Everyone stay where you are and cease all movements, violators will be killed."

The screech was filled with a piercing killing intent.

In Wuyun City, everyone looked to the sky in surprise, their bodies stiff, not daring to move.

"What’s going on?"

"What happened, why the sudden lockdown?"

Looking up, figures streaked across the sky.

More than a dozen figures descended from the sky, charging towards the City Lord’s Mansion.

At this time, Lin Feng and Wang Mian were just about to step out of the City Lord’s Mansion.

The two exchanged a glance, their expressions tense.

It was clear that things were exposed.

It might not necessarily be Lou Yuan’s death that was exposed, but the Pure Land’s plan.

The latter possibility is greater.

For safety, and to avoid arousing suspicion from the Abnormal People, according to the rules of action, seven teams needed to act within a unified time frame.

But in two days, perhaps a Celestial King team disregarded the rules, secretly succeeded in a hunt, and caused alarm and suspicion.

Other teams would be hard-pressed to know about this.

Later on, it would be difficult to pursue accountability, after all, this is the Divine Martial Continent, where information is closed off.

This action, with the hunting target not being the most dangerous part, the real danger lies in exposing one’s identity, which might lead to being encircled and hunted.

There is a high possibility that someone broke the rules.

Like the Beast Celestial King and the Dream Celestial King.

Those two somewhat perverted guys never abide by rules.

This lesson must serve as a warning.

Otherwise, one wouldn’t even know how one got killed.

"Damn it."

Lin Feng cursed inwardly, those bastards broke the rules, and the timing was so coincidental, they were already hurrying to evacuate, just a few steps away from leaving the City Lord’s Mansion.

Lin Feng and Wang Mian halted in their tracks.

Because they saw more than ten people descending from the sky.

At this moment, in Wuyun City, everyone was immobile, including the guards patrolling within the City Lord’s Mansion.

If they made any movements, they would directly expose their identities.

Within just two seconds, more than ten people appeared before Lin Feng, led by a middle-aged man, with a single horn on his head, tall and robust, even taller than Lin Feng by a head, exceeding two meters in height.

He was dressed in a yellow brocade robe, his face stern, with a very long scar on his left cheek, nearly reaching the bone, which made the man look somewhat fierce.

"Another Emperor!"

Lin Feng thought to himself, only an Emperor could make him feel danger.

In Earth, Emperors were rare, but on the Divine Martial Continent, they could be easily encountered.

Lin Feng shifted his gaze to behind the man, where there was an elderly white-haired man with a delicate face and somewhat androgynous demeanor, seemingly also possessing the strength of an Emperor.

Behind them were fifteen Kings, each exuding a powerful aura, probably all possessing middle rank strength or above.

Facing such a lineup, even Lin Feng and Wang Mian had no other option but to flee, utterly incapable of resisting.

Moreover, they were in Wuyun City; exposing their human identities would mean facing a city-wide pursuit.

Feeling a bit nervous, heart racing slightly, but Lin Feng remained calm, looking unperturbed.

When the team appeared, Lin Feng stepped aside, slightly bowing to show respect to the powerful individuals.

Behind him, Wang Mian did the same.

"Who are these two?"

The leading middle-aged man inquired.

The guards at the gate dared to move only then, quickly coming to the middle-aged man, looking towards Lin Feng and Wang Mian, respectfully saying, "These two said they have important matters concerning the Human Race to see City Lord Lou."

"Important matters of the Human Race?"

The middle-aged man swept his gaze over Lin Feng and Wang Mian, frowning slightly.

"What matters?"

"This subordinate does not know, they did not specify."

"How long ago?"

The middle-aged man continued to ask.

The guard replied, "About ten Light Hours ago."

Light Hour was an Abnormal People’s unique time measurement unit.

One Light Hour was equivalent to 57 seconds.

The middle-aged man’s tightly furrowed brow slowly relaxed.

It was common for someone in Wuyun City to seek an audience with City Lord Lou.

Ten Light Hours, two people, even if they were Emperors, it would be very difficult to kill City Lord Lou in such a short period, not to mention this wasn’t the entire duration of the battle.

To do so silently and without causing much disturbance was nearly impossible to achieve.

Even their team couldn’t accomplish it.

This was why the tense atmosphere abruptly eased.

The situation was urgent, and no abnormalities were detected, so the middle-aged man didn’t continue questioning, stepping past Lin Feng, followed closely by his team.

Lin Feng, with his head lowered, felt a sense of relief.

As long as the team left, they could safely retreat.

Just as Lin Feng felt relaxed, the white-haired elder with a pale face and an androgynous demeanor suddenly glanced back at Lin Feng and said, "Wait."

The team abruptly stopped.

The middle-aged man looked at the white-haired elder, then at Lin Feng and Wang Mian, his eyes sharp as a knife: "What did you notice?"

"Nothing in particular, just seemed off."

The elder shook his head, and said to Lin Feng, "You two, follow us."

"Ah."

Lin Feng sighed slightly, and in the next moment, his place was taken by a bewildered man.

The man evidently did not understand what had happened, how he suddenly arrived in a strange environment.

"Stand!"

The middle-aged man’s face changed, his piercing gaze directed towards a figure dashing through the crowd two hundred meters away.

"Lin Feng!"

The middle-aged man let out an angry roar, the sound echoing throughout the city again.

Everyone was bewildered.

Unsure of what had happened?

Lin Feng?

Was it that Lin Feng?

Amidst the angry roar, the middle-aged man’s figure disappeared from its original place, stepping into the void, covering a hundred meters with each step, rapidly pursuing Lin Feng.

"Ten people follow Witch Lord, the rest with me to encircle this one."

The elder looked at Wang Mian.

The figures descended, and ten people disappeared.

Wang Mian also sighed lightly.

Uncertain whether he was lamenting that Lin Feng had attracted most of the attention, or that Lin Feng had abandoned him without the slightest hesitation.
