Chapter 498 -495: Enemies on a Narrow Road
Qin Feng, filled with excitement, stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge!
Just as he wanted to feel what it was like to walk on this magical bridge, he suddenly sensed a covert yet powerful aura coming from behind.
This aura posed a great threat to Qin Feng, instantly snapping him out of his excited state.
His body abruptly flashed to the side, and with the aid of the “Shrinking Ground to Inch” divine skill, he moved a hundred yards away from his original position in an instant.
With a booming sound, a pitch-black radiance struck like lightning where Qin Feng had just been standing, causing the nearby rainbow to wobble slightly.
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes and immediately sensed the aura of the Cultivation World from this spell.
Moreover, it even had a somewhat familiar feel!
“Who’s sneaking around and launching a stealth attack, come out and face your death!”
He shouted, his eyes flashing with spirit light as he looked toward the direction of the attack, yet he inwardly sighed with a bitter smile.
Previously, in the Visby Palace, he had schemed against Duan Shanhe of the Giant Spirit Sect, causing Duan Shanhe to lose the opportunity to obtain the Fire God’s Hammer and even snatching the divine artifact and Weapon Casting Furnace, not only foiling Duan Shanhe’s plans but also resulting in an encirclement by powerful fighters from the Visby Royal Family, nearly trapping him in the treasure vault.
Now it was his turn to be ambushed.
The only good thing was that this place wasn’t in a royal palace of some kingdom, and there were no other powerhouses nearby, so he wouldn’t fall into an assault of powerful enemies.
Even the giants that were nearby before had already left this place, and according to the giants’ consistent behavior, they wouldn’t return here anytime soon, so Qin Feng didn’t have to worry about facing an unbeatable crisis!
“Clap! Clap! Clap!”
A tall youth draped in a black robe appeared from behind half a mountain, clapping his hands softly. The sound was not loud but clearly reached Qin Feng’s ears!
“To be able to dodge my sneak attack, you do have some luck!”
“Is it you?”
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes, looking at the youth with a hint of a cold tone.
This was no stranger; it was Luo Xiao, the youth from the Ten Ghosts City whom they had encountered wandering in Lingxiao City on their first day at the Five Domains Alliance!
At that time, this boy was arrogant and even tried to snatch Qin Feng’s Divine Bird Qingluan. The two had fought, but before a winner could be determined, they were stopped by cultivators from the Lingxiao Hall.
“Indeed, it’s me!”
Luo Xiao’s expression remained arrogant, and his tone was even more haughty, “Kid, you didn’t expect to be cornered by me here, right?
Heh, it’s really a coincidence to run into you here. This isn’t Lingxiao City, nor are there any Confucian cultivators from Lingxiao Hall to help you this time. I’d like to see if you can still escape from my hands!”
“Ridiculous!”
Qin Feng sneered, “A toad yawning, what a big mouth you have. If I remember correctly, our last battle was left unresolved, so how is it that in your mouth, I am no match for you?”
“Heh, a frog in the well dares to talk big. The divine skills of the Ten Thousand Ghosts City are not something a disciple of an ordinary sect like you could possibly contend with!”
Luo Xiao was indifferent to Qin Feng’s mockery, even somewhat dismissive, “Don’t think just because you fought with me once that you’re superior. I didn’t even use my full strength back then, and your little tricks are nowhere close to mine!”
“It sounds as if I went all out.”
Qin Feng’s tone was mild.
“Your so-called ‘not going all out’ must be referring to those spiritual beasts you haven’t yet summoned, right?”
Luo Xiao’s face maintained its usual arrogance, “Merely a few spiritual beasts, what threat do they pose to me?
Besides, your Beast Taming Sect’s cultivation technique has strayed, focusing too much on nurturing spiritual beasts while neglecting your own cultivation. How can your Beast Taming Sect compare to my Ten Thousand Ghosts City in this respect?
Although the Ten Thousand Ghosts City also subdues ghost items and commands fierce ghost souls, useful for both combat and scouting, the techniques passed down by the Ghost Ancestor do not allow us to waste our cultivation by overvaluing ghost items.
Even without using ghost items, I can defeat other sects’ true disciples at the same realm, let alone disciples from a deviated sect like yours!
Boy, don’t say I don’t give you a chance. Out of respect for a fellow cultivator, just obediently hand over the Qingluan and respectfully offer an apology, and I might spare your life.”
As he spoke, he looked at Qin Feng with disdain, waiting for Qin Feng to realize the reality, bow down, and hand over the Qingluan so he could perfect the main soul of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner into a ferocious Ghost Car!
He felt his attitude was very appropriate.
Being a true disciple of the Ten Thousand Ghosts City, one of the largest forces in the Biluo Five Domains, one should indeed have a magnanimous heart.
Besides, this wasn’t Biluo or the Ten Thousand Ghosts City; he didn’t need to show his fierce and domineering side or necessarily cripple his opponents upon meeting them.
This was soon to become a high-ranked world for Biluo’s conquest. All authentic disciples from various sects were cultivators working hard to conquer this world. Being an heir of a Dominator Level force, he really shouldn’t be overly aggressive and should provide a way out for disciples of other sects.
Even though Qin Feng had offended him previously, he would still show his magnanimous side!
Hmm, perhaps, he could even recruit this Beast Taming Sect cultivator to serve under him, assisting him in this world, and thereby greatly increase his chances of securing a spot in the trials.
Luo Xiao considered himself magnanimous, but he was still young, and living amidst others’ awe and flattery, the vicious temperament he had originally feigned gradually influenced his mindset. Now, thinking he was lowering his stance, the superior tone in his voice remained undiminished!
Thus, instead of waiting for Qin Feng to respectfully offer the Divine Bird Qingluan, he found Qin Feng looking at him as if he were looking at a fool.
This gaze made him very uncomfortable, and his expression suddenly turned cold, “Boy, what is that look in your eyes? Believe it or not, I will gouge out your eyes to teach you a lesson!”
“Tsks…”
Qin Feng scoffed, shaking his head and sighing, “The Ten Thousand Ghosts City is indeed powerful, and the Ghost Ancestor’s divine power is something we juniors cannot fathom. But if the Ten Thousand Ghosts City only teaches disciples like you who are so out of touch, it really does lower the image of the Ten Thousand Ghosts City in my eyes!”
“What do you mean by that?”
Luo Xiao’s face darkened, staring intently at Qin Feng.
“Is that what you meant by your comment, or do you want me to explain it to you all over again?”
“Boy, do you have a death wish?”
“Hmph, let me advise you, don’t speak without reserve. We are of similar age, and if you keep shouting nonsense, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
“Ah… go to hell!”
Luo Xiao was seething with rage beyond measure.
He had not expected that despite displaying such magnanimity, this disciple from the Beast Taming Sect would still dare to disrespect him.
Disrespect was one thing, but to mock and jeer him openly was quite another. Did he really think he was one of those soft targets from the Southern Domain?
He had heard that the rival sect of the Beast Taming Sect was Taiyi Mountain.
Hmph, it seemed that even the Sword Cultivation Sects could produce weaklings; they hadn’t managed to suppress the Beast Taming Sect for years, and now they were actually being subjugated by such a sect—a side path in cultivation techniques—truly useless!
Luo Xiao, provoked by Qin Feng’s tone, could no longer contain his anger. He spread his hand wide and immediately summoned a pitch-black Netherworld Ghost Hand from the void, striking towards Qin Feng!
“Do you really think you can deal with me using such methods?”
Qin Feng sneered coldly and countered by grabbing forward with his hand, out of which flew a stream of blue qi that transformed into a large dragon claw, charging towards the incoming Netherworld Ghost Hand from above.
He was a True Disciple of the Spiritual Snake Lineage; although he had not practiced all True Inheritance Techniques, beyond the nine True Inheritance Techniques, the Spiritual Snake Lineage possessed many Magic Divine Powers. Additionally, his master Ning Wuxu was particularly adept in these kinds of divine skills. Therefore, he often taught how to handle various situations with these techniques, although Qin Feng rarely used them in actual combat.
This Dragon Claw Hand was one of the frequently used divine skills among the transformation inheritances involving dragons in the Spiritual Snake Lineage, and it was also a skill Ning Wuxu commonly used. After Qin Feng had made progress in cultivating the Azure Dragon Daoist Body, Ning Wuxu passed on this commonly used divine skill to him, making Qin Feng quite adept at handling Luo Xiao’s Netherworld Ghost Hand.
With a loud “bang”, the dragon claw shattered the Netherworld Ghost Hand, but it too was crushed by the Netherworld Ghost Hand, and both dissipated into nothingness.
“Hmph!”
Luo Xiao, hearing Qin Feng’s mockery, felt even angrier, waved his large sleeves, and released the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner.
Then he grasped the Long Banner and shook it violently; the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner instantly turned into a one-hundred-foot-tall tower, its surface filled with countless bizarre runes twinkling ceaselessly, emitting a vast amount of yin qi and ghostly fog, and even the eerie screams of ghosts headed straight for Qin Feng’s ears.
Looking up, Qin Feng saw the vast number of ghost souls appearing from the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner, far exceeding the number he had first encountered Luo Xiao in Lingxiao City. Moreover, the power of this Spiritual Treasure, as well as the yin qi within it, were both much stronger than before.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
It seemed this fellow had been busy during this period.
Seeing many souls with the appearance of beings from this world suddenly emerging within the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner, Qin Feng was speechless.
How on earth had he managed to conceal this from the Valkyries and collect so many souls on the battlefield?
Earlier on, from what Qin Feng had learned from Miao Zhen, he knew that among the Valkyries, Li Miaozhen was the weakest. Several of the girl warriors were incredibly powerful, even considered strong among demigods, and even the weaker ones generally possessed a Dharma Image-rivaling war power.
There was no helping it; although Li Miaozhen had great talent, she was young and relatively inexperienced; naturally, she couldn’t compare to those Valkyries who had lived for nearly a thousand years, not to mention some who had existed for several thousand years.
The Valkyries, as direct subordinates of Odin and commanders of numerous Heroic Spirit Warriors in the Heroic Spirit Hall, received many benefits from Odin. Thus, even those who had lived for thousands of years still maintained the appearance of their youth, which is why they were always referred to as girl warriors!
The souls released from Luo Xiao’s Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner were now several times more than before, and these extra souls were all warriors clad in war armor and holding long spears, shields, and swords, clearly collected from the battlefields of various nations in Midgard.
Thus, Qin Feng marvelled, uncertain how this fellow had managed it without being discovered and hunted down by the Valkyries.
After all, among the souls in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner, there were quite a few of the strong souls, which was tantamount to directly competing with the King of All Gods for his subordinates. Once the Valkyrie girl warriors noticed, they would absolutely not tolerate such a thing!
Besides, Qin Feng also noticed that the three-headed ghost bird soul in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner had also become even more immense, its aura increasingly formidable.
Moreover, the number of Fierce Ghosts with the power of the Purple Mansion Realm had grown from the original two to an additional five or six.
Seeing this, Qin Feng understood why this fellow had always been so arrogant.
Having such formidable strength under his command was indeed a reason to be proud.
“Hmm, hmm, hmm…”
Luo Xiao let out a few cold chuckles from his nose, “Although your Beast Taming Sect is adept at taming Spiritual Beasts, it’s still far inferior to my Ghost City’s methods in taming ghost items!
Today, I will let you know the consequences of offending me, I’ll make you kneel and beg for mercy!”
“How boastful!”
Although the Ghost Items released from Luo Xiao’s Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner were now more numerous and stronger than before, Qin Feng was not the slightest bit intimidated, and with a wave of his hand, he released several of his own Spiritual Beasts under his command, especially those at the Purple Mansion Realm, each full of vigor, far surpassing those mere soul ghost items in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner.
Luo Xiao disdainfully said, “Even if your Spiritual Beasts are mighty, could they really surpass my army of one hundred thousand ghosts?”
As he spoke, he fiercely shook the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner, and immediately, a hundred thousand ghost soldiers let out a mournful wail together, then stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge, charging toward Qin Feng like a blanket covering the sky.
Luo Xiao lightly stepped forward, walking onto the Rainbow Bridge as well.
With a cold smile on his face, he readied himself to watch Qin Feng be completely overwhelmed by his one hundred thousand ghost army, waiting for this young disciple of the Beast Taming Sect to beg him for mercy.
As long as Qin Feng bowed and submitted, he was willing not to kill him.
Because compared to killing, he preferred to subjugate Qin Feng.
After all, this was a high-rank world, and he was in the midst of a trial. If he could have another subordinate with strong capabilities, it would certainly make seizing a place in the trial much easier, and if there were any dangers, he could have this young man from the Beast Taming Sect bear the brunt, reaping the benefits himself.
As for whether Qin Feng would secretly be disloyal, Luo Xiao was not worried. As the top force in researching soul ghost items, the Ten Ghost City, he had plenty of methods to implant prohibitions in Qin Feng’s body, taming Qin Feng as easily as he tamed other ghost items, without worrying about his dedication to the task.
However, whether to leave Qin Feng behind when returning to Biluo was another matter.
Luo Xiao shook his head, “Forget it, it’s up to his luck then.”
If he was lucky and didn’t die here, then he would remove the prohibitions in his body and let him go free.
After all, as a true disciple of a major sect, keeping him imprisoned constantly wouldn’t sound pleasant if word got out, and it would damage the dignity of the Ten Ghost City!
