Mysterious 'snake'?

  Yi Feng didn't expect a sudden turn of events, and was just about to use his speed to escape. But just then, he suddenly sensed a fluctuation on Huo Ling's body. Unlike the fluctuations of energy, this one was very faint but real.

  Huǒ líng shì yóu néng liàng hé línghún zǔ chéng de, jì rán bù shì néng liàng bō dòng. Nà bì dìng shì línghún bō dòng.

  Translation:

  Huo Ling is composed of energy and soul, if not an energy fluctuation, then it must be a soul fluctuation.

  Yi Feng did not expect such a dramatic scene to unfold. He could actually sense the location of the soul within the spiritual body, a skill that only Soul Snatchers possessed.

  Yi Feng shook his head, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Alas, there's no helping it, geniuses are always so different from the rest. Even if he didn't learn Soul Sealing Techniques, he still possessed the skills of a Soul Sealer.

  Yi Feng's arrogant appearance made even the Fire Spirit opposite him want to come and give him a slap. But at this moment, he felt an inexplicable sense of fear, as if his greatest weakness was exposed in front of the human.

  Yi Feng covered his entire soul power on Huo Ling's body, and indeed, that fluctuating feeling became even stronger.

  If the old men knew that Yi Feng was so excited because he could discover the location of Huo Ling's energy, they would definitely feel ashamed. With Yi Feng's original soul power, plus the eighth-level soul power of a master, it is only natural to be able to detect its soul even without learning the Soul Capturing Technique. The most shameful thing is that Yi Feng only barely discovered it after being taken advantage of by Huo Ling.

  Yi Feng, of course, didn't know any of this. He once again sighed in his heart: I'm just a genius. It's just that I'm too handsome. What? You ask what this has to do with being handsome? Nonsense, one look at this Fire Spirit and it's obvious it's a mother, our Young Master is so handsome, that's why it revealed its weakness.

  Huǒ Líng's fear finally made it unbearable, and its mouth continuously spat out several energy beams. Its body color also became slightly darker due to this.

  His figure changed rapidly several times, quickly dodging the incoming energy blasts. The aura also slightly circulated in Yifeng's meridians. A small amount of aura gathered bit by bit on Yifeng's fists.

  Huǒ Líng saw that his energy attack had no effect on the opponent. His pair of pale red eyes suddenly brightened by three points. He swung his claws at Yì Fēng and launched a fierce attack.

  Yi Feng let out a cold snort, his fist not relaxing in the slightest as he fiercely struck towards Huo Ling. Just as Yi Feng's fist was about to collide with Huo Ling's claws, his fist suddenly changed direction and struck towards Huo Ling's tail instead.

  A flash of panic flickered in Huo Ling's eyes, his tail suddenly dodged, and the offensive under his paws also weakened. Only to see a faint red glow on his tail, as if there was a flowing light that suddenly flowed into his body.

  Yi Feng's fist slammed onto Huo Ling's tail, that small and exquisite tail, its color suddenly darkened, the previously vibrant tail now dull and without luster. It was clear that Yi Feng's punch had consumed a great deal of Huo Ling's energy.

  "Depend on..."

  Yi Feng couldn't help but curse, and just as he was about to hit the Fire Spirit's soul, it suddenly transferred into his body. This punch, he had essentially thrown in vain.

  The Huo Ling stared at the human in front of it, unable to believe that the person who had just been allowing itself to be slaughtered could now so easily find its weakness. Having its weakness discovered, it was no different from a first-class demon beast. If Yi Feng could kill the Fire Ground Mouse, then he could naturally also kill it.

  "Go die..."

  Yi Feng let out a loud roar once again, and slammed his fist towards the back of Huo Ling. Yi Feng discovered that the faint ripples had stopped there.

  Huǒ Líng's body suddenly turned around and rushed towards Yì Fēng. His back was tightly protected by him.

  "Bang..."

  A loud crash, Yi Feng's fist and Huo Ling had a fierce collision, the powerful backlash made Yi Feng's hand go numb.

  This time, Huo Ling escaped from Yue Feng's attack again. The soul also moved to another place.

  Yi Feng let out a cold snort, ignoring the pain in his hand, and with one swift motion, he fiercely smashed his fist towards Huo Ling's head.

  Huǒ Líng didn't move in the slightest, and instead used his head to welcome Yì Fēng. Just as his head was about to touch Yì Fēng's, a hint of mockery flashed across Yì Fēng's mouth corner. The fist momentum repeated once more. Bào Liè Quán fiercely formed again, blasting towards Huǒ Líng's already dim tail once more.

  Huǒ Líng hadn't expected Yì Fēng's fist to change so quickly, his eyes were filled with terror. He could only stare blankly as the fist smashed into his tail.

  "Boom..."

  A loud and fierce collision, the Fire Spirit's tail was blown apart, countless fragments floating in the void, without blood, just like shattered glass crystals.

  After Huo Ling's tail was ruthlessly smashed by Yi Feng, Huo Ling's eerie eyes slowly closed, and his entire body fell to the ground. The fiery red energy that had been flowing inside his body suddenly froze. Strands of energy slowly drifted out from his body and merged into the heavens and earth.

  Yi Feng saw Huo Ling lying on the ground, and he finally let out a sigh of relief. The two consecutive battles had left him somewhat exhausted. The Dou Qi in his body was also barely remaining, if he continued to fight, even if Yi Feng could find its soul, it wasn't certain that he would be its match.

  Can't help but admit, Ling is indeed the most bizarre thing in this world. No wonder only Soul Masters can conquer it. With the fire spirit just now, although it was only quasi-soul level, if one couldn't find its soul's location, even a true soul master might not be able to extinguish it.

  Yi Feng rubbed his numb hands and sat cross-legged beside Huo Ling. He formed a seal with his hands in front of his chest, beginning to cultivate according to the Ling Shen Jue's technique.

  The little energy that drifted away from Huo Ling into the void also mostly shifted in the direction of Yi Feng. This is also why Yi Feng had to go to Huo Ling's side to cultivate. With the addition of Huo Ling's scattered energy, it was definitely thicker than anywhere else.

  Yi Feng quickly entered a state, with waves of energy entering his body through his breath.

  Just as Yi Feng was slowly cultivating his energy, a strange little thing suddenly jumped onto Huo Ling's body. This little thing seemed like a snake, yet it was different from a snake. Its entire body was crystal clear like white jade, with two small green horns on its head, displaying a dynamic like glass, making one's eyes light up. The most bizarre thing was that there were double claws under its belly, also like glass. This little life seemed like a sculpture, with a refreshing combination of white and green, extremely beautiful.

  What's most eerie is this thing that resembles a snake but isn't one, and looks like a dragon but isn't. It coils around the body of the fire spirit, and the enormous fire spirit actually starts to shrink bit by bit. In an instant, its massive body disappears without a trace. The only change in the small creature's appearance is that its color becomes even more crystalline. The little thing looks at Yi Feng who is standing aside with his eyes closed, its tiny body coils up and suddenly vanishes from this place.

  He didn't know anything about what was going on outside. He had been in meditation for a long time, and he didn't know how much time had passed either. His hand gestures had changed many times. Only then did he slowly exhale a mouthful of turbid air and slowly open his eyes.

  Feeling the abundance of spiritual energy within, a smile bursts forth from the corners of my mouth. Indeed, only by challenging oneself can one's abilities be improved the fastest. This time's cultivation has surprisingly surpassed that of an ordinary week. The spiritual energy within me has increased by several folds.

  However, when Yī Fēng moved to the place where Huǒ Líng had just been, he couldn't help but be stunned: How did Huǒ Líng disperse so quickly? Even if he was a first-stage spirit, it should have taken at least three days or more for him to completely disperse.
