Chapter 23: Borrowing a Calamity from the Side of the Water

  "Damn it, I've finally gotten out of this damn forest!"

  Under the dim night sky, a tall and sturdy young man rushed out of the dark forest, excitedly waving his hairy arms. Closely following him, three other boys of similar age ran out of the forest in disarray, each one looking relieved and panting violently.

  They were Nie Fengbo, Nie Fengtao, Nie Fenting and Nie Fengxin.

  These past few days, they had been wandering around in the Mortal Realm, searching for Nie Kong's whereabouts while constantly being ambushed by other youths and attacked by spiritual beasts. Up until now, although they hadn't died, their complexions were wan and sallow, with bloodstains all over their bodies and tattered clothes, looking like savages who had just emerged from the primitive forest.

  Nie Fengting, who was covered in acne, was very frustrated: "After searching for so long, not even a shadow has been found, and it's unknown whether he's dead or hiding somewhere. Fengbo, you had such a good opportunity that day, how did you let him escape? If we can't find him, what will we say to Third Brother when we get out?"

  These days, Nie Fengbo had been scolded by his companions countless times. As soon as he heard Nie Fengting's words, his eyes began to turn red: "Shut up for me! Do you think I'm willing to let him run away? If it wasn't for that little rabbit Nie Xiugou suddenly running out and causing trouble, I would have captured him alive long ago!"

  Nie Fengting retorted: "It's just because your own skills are too poor."

  "You..."

  As the two were about to quarrel again, Nie Fengtao and Nie Fengxin quickly separated them and comforted them for a while before the edge of the forest returned to calmness. Thinking that the seven-day deadline was approaching, the spiritual beasts in the fantasy realm would become more and more frantic, and the hope of finding Nie Kong also became increasingly slim, all four were depressed.

  Suddenly, Nie Fengbo broke the silence around him, his voice trembling with excitement: "Nie Kong! Nie Kong! Quick, look, Nie Kong is right there!"

  "Go ahead and daydream all you want!"

  With a sneer, Nie Fengting still subconsciously followed Nie Fengbo's gaze and looked over. A moment later, Nie Fengting's eyes widened, and then an uncontrollable excitement appeared on his face. Nie Fengtao and Nie Fengxin also couldn't help but turn their heads away.

  A hundred meters away from the exit of the canyon, a figure rushed out in a sorry state. Judging by his appearance, he looked like he had been reduced to ashes. Nie Fengbo and others immediately recognized him as Nie Kong.

  "Heaven has been kind to me, I've finally met you."

  Nie Fengbo suddenly activated his spiritual power and rushed towards Nie Kong, his heart was so excited that he almost cried, this feeling is just like being extremely hungry and then suddenly having a piece of cake fall from the sky. Nie Fengting, Nie Fengtao, and Nie Fengxin were equally excited and burst into laughter, chasing after Nie Fengbo.

  "Heaven has been kind to me!"

  Seeing Nie Fengbo and his three companions suddenly enter their line of sight, Nie Kong similarly couldn't help but excitedly shout in his heart: They appeared just in time, truly a timely help!

  For a moment, Nie Kong found the four distorted faces in front of him to be so familiar that he was overcome with emotion and rushed towards them. His expression was like that of a parched desert traveler who had suddenly discovered a bottle of mineral water, and he couldn't help but want to swallow everything, including the bottle itself.

  Seeing Nie Kong's actions, a hint of doubt flashed through Nie Fengting's mind: "He not only didn't escape, but instead ran towards us. Isn't this just asking to die?"

  "Haha, isn't this exactly what we wanted?"

  Nie Fengbo didn't bother to waste his mind thinking about such a boring question, and grabbed Nie Kong. Everything would be clear then. So, Nie Fengbo accelerated to the limit.

  In just a few seconds, the distance between him and Nie Kong had narrowed to less than ten meters.

  "Nie Kong, brother, I've been searching for you with great difficulty. Now, let me treat you well." With a loud and wild laugh, Nie Fengbo's robust body soared into the air like an eagle swooping down on its prey, his fist hurtling towards Nie Kong's shoulder, leaving a trail of scorching heat in its wake.

  "Hey, don't talk so ambiguously, it gives me goosebumps."

  Nie Kong burst into laughter, his body didn't dodge or evade, still maintaining the speed from earlier, while his right arm, which had long been charged with spiritual power, swiftly swung out.

  Bang! Bang!

  A thick green aura burst forth, and after two almost overlapping explosions, Nie Feng's body violently retreated. After landing, his feet continuously stepped back several steps before he barely managed to steady himself. His eyes were wide open like bronze bells, filled with astonishment: "This... how is this possible?"

  "Oh, by the way, I've already reached Spiritual Enlightenment First Rank." Taking advantage of Nie Fengbo's momentary daze, Nie Kong burst out laughing and swiftly passed by his side.

  "Transcendence in one go?" Not only Nie Fengbo, but also Nie Fengting and several others couldn't help but stare blankly for a moment. In just over half a month's time, this kid had actually entered the Transcendent realm?

  "How dare you be so arrogant with just one spiritual product? It's really ridiculous!" The strongest of the four, Nie Fengtao, sneered and appeared in front of Nie Kong, blocking his way. However, before he could make a move, he was taken aback, "Huh? What's going on? The ground is shaking?"

  At this moment, like a galloping horse, the ground rumbled and groaned, and faintly, there were urgent and heavy gasps coming from the valley.

  Nie Kong and several others surrounded Nie Fengbao in the center, looking at each other in dismay.

  "Wah! Wah! Wah......"

  A deafening howl rose into the air, and the anger and murderous intent contained in that sound made Nie Fengbo and his three companions' hearts tremble with fear.

  "That is..."

  "Wolf howl?"

  "Wolf? Golden Silk Silver Wolf?"

  “……”

  A faint, inexplicable premonition had just risen from the bottom of their hearts, and fear appeared in the eyes of the four people. Suddenly, a group of robust golden wolves burst out of the valley, like a stream of golden light flowing under the dark night sky, rushing towards them with a fierce momentum. Their bright red eyeballs all shone with a cold, bloodthirsty glow, and their mouths were full of sharp teeth, making people's hearts tremble. It was clear that these spirit beasts had already entered a state of frenzy.

  "This... so many Golden Wolves..." Nie Fengbo's face revealed a hint of fear, recalling the introduction to this spirit beast by his family elders, and he couldn't help but shiver. Nie Fengting and the others exchanged a glance, seeing in each other's eyes an unhidden fear.

  "Haha, four of you, take good care of the guys behind me. I'm not going to keep you company anymore." As Nie Fengbo and the others were shocked and frightened, Nie Kong had already flashed out from the gap between them and started sprinting wildly without stopping, until he entered the forest before turning back to laugh loudly.

  "Despicable!"

  "Shameless!"

  “……”

  The four of them suddenly woke up with a start, shouting and cursing as they ran wildly along the original path. Nie Fengbo and the others almost used all the vicious insults on Nie Kong's head, at least three or four hundred golden silver wolves rushed over, even ten fusion masters didn't dare to provoke them, let alone the four of them who were spiritual masters.

  At this moment, they didn't even think about catching Nie Kong. One by one, they regretted that their parents had given birth to two legs less, and followed Nie Kong into the forest. However, Nie Fengbo and others soon regretted this choice. They stumbled in the forest, while Jin Si Yin Lang was still as agile as a dragon swimming in the ocean.

  "Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!"

  In the gloomy woods, four mournful cries echoed one after another.

  ……

  Life and Death Pavilion

  "Bang!"

  A seven-colored cocoon burst open with a loud crash.

  "Nie Kong, I swear to never stand with you again!" The angry roar echoed through the hall, and Nie Fengbo, who had just revealed his figure, fainted to the ground.

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  In just a few minutes, three more cocoons burst open and the three people who returned to their bodies before fainting all shouted similar words. The nine elders Nie Xingdong and eight elders Nie Longshan, who had been guarding the temple, looked at each other in shock, feeling the intense resentment in the four people's words.

  What a heavy grievance, how were these four little guys killed by Nie Kong?
