Death God's Spear Trinity
Sorry about that, brothers. These two days Xiao Long had some things to attend to and wasn't home during the day, only coming back at night to start writing, so the updates were a bit late and I also forgot to let everyone know. But now that everything has been taken care of, it won't be like this tomorrow. The updates will go back to normal, one in the afternoon and two at night.
"Qitian?" Both of them furrowed their brows, apparently not having heard this name before, but they quickly regained their composure and asked Qi Feng: "May I ask which sect you are from?"
"What, you're here to investigate me?" Qi Feng's expression turned unpleasant. These two guys came here not long after he had driven away those three guys. Although it couldn't be said that they didn't have good intentions, they definitely had ulterior motives.
And if you always tolerate them, it will only make them think you're easy to bully and won't have any other effect. Zhi Feng wouldn't be so stupid.
"Master Qi misunderstood, we were just curious. If Master Qi is not convenient to answer, then forget it." Huang Cheng did not expect Qi Feng's temper to be so violent, coming on so strong and not giving them a good face.
The main thing is that they can't see through Qi Feng's true nature, so this makes them dare not to offend Qi Feng easily.
"Alright, everyone understands, so let's get straight to it. What are you all here for?" Qi Feng asked impatiently.
He is now powerful enough to defy these family heads, and in a short while he will give them a big purge.
However, for now, he still needs to hold them back. If these twenty or so families were to attack together, even if he himself wouldn't be in trouble, his family's legacy would likely be difficult to preserve.
Otherwise, he would have taken action long ago and captured these two guys. There's no need to waste words with them here.
"Master Qiji, you really misunderstood us, we..."
"That's enough, Wang Cheng, see our guest out." Qi Feng interrupted them and strode away from the main hall with a flick of his sleeve.
"This..." Huang Cheng and Bai Hu exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with surprise. They hadn't expected Qi Feng to be so completely disregarding of them, not putting them in his eyes at all.
However, although they were unhappy in their hearts, they didn't dare to be arrogant here. They hadn't seen through Qifeng's true nature, and in their eyes, Qifeng was just a being slightly stronger than ordinary people.
However, they all clearly understood that being able to defeat three prenatal masters with one move was definitely not an ordinary person, so this instead made them even more wary of Qi Feng.
"Two, please!" Wang Cheng walked over and said respectfully.
Huang Cheng and Bai Hu didn't say anything and left directly.
Before long, Qi Feng returned to the grand hall once again.
"Sir, they are the heads of the two most powerful families within a radius of ten thousand miles, both being late-stage Nascent Soul experts. Are you not being a bit too rash in treating them this way?" Wang Cheng said.
"It doesn't matter, the two of them came here with ill intentions, since they've already lost face, I don't need to give them any either." Qi Feng said.
"But..."
"Alright, don't say any more. You're just a late-stage Yuan Infant cultivator, it's not worth mentioning." Qi Feng interrupted him and then said: "Give you one day's time, list out the names of all families within a radius of 10,000 miles, as well as their strengths, I have use for them."
"Yes, sir." Wang Cheng's heart skipped a beat as he thought to himself: "This gentleman wouldn't be trying to get their attention, would he..."
……
The great hall of the Huang family, Huang Cheng and Bai Hu sat inside, their expressions somewhat unsightly.
"Big brother, what do you think of Qi Tian's cultivation level?" White Tiger asked.
"He doesn't seem to have any energy fluctuations, it's hard to imagine he'd be so formidable." Huang Cheng's expression also looked a bit unsightly.
"This little guy looks like he's only in his teens or early twenties, it's impossible for him to be more powerful than us who have cultivated for over a hundred years, right?" said White Tiger.
"Cultivation isn't necessarily about how long you've been practicing, there are too many variables. I've spent a hundred years cultivating in vain, but for the major sects, it's not even worth mentioning." Huang Cheng shook his head, he had a deep understanding of this.
At that time, he was young and vigorous, with the strength of the middle stage of Jindan, wanting to intercept and kill a Tianren stage disciple of a big 'door' sect, plundering his resources and skills.
However, as a result, he was pursued and killed by the later disciples of that heavenly man using secret methods for tens of thousands of miles, almost falling to his death, which still lingers in his memory.
"But are we just going to hand over the Lin family's foundation to others?" White Tiger's heart was filled with reluctance, as the Lin family had survived in this place for hundreds of years, accumulating a great deal and even owning a spiritual stone mine, which was truly enviable.
"Of course not, but we can't act rashly either. We must get to the bottom of this kid's background. Some people are not ones we can afford to offend." Huang Cheng said cautiously.
"Then send two more people to probe?" White Tiger asked.
"Let the heads of the Hong and Jiang families go, they have already reached the middle stage of Yuan Ying's power, and they also cultivate the art of combined attack. The two of them can match us if they join hands, let them try." Huang Cheng thought for a moment and said.
"Good..."
……
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. Early in the morning, the three Nascent Soul stage experts flew over without stopping. At this moment, their appearance had changed, but their aura could not be changed.
"Master." The three were directly led into the grand hall, where Qi Feng was already seated, waiting for them.
"Shen Hao, Tang Tian, Zhao Hong, the three of you are indeed 'fast' in your movements. In just three short days, you've completed the soul-snatching process. How is it? Have your powers recovered to what extent?" Qi Feng asked.
This robbery is not a good thing, no one will want to rob innocently, because the robbery itself is also extremely harmful and has no benefits for the practitioners in the Yuan Ying period.
Although it is said that the yuan infant can escape and re-select a 'flesh' body to gain new life, after all, the body is not one's own, and cultivation and compatibility with one's own body cannot be matched.
So after the body is seized, it is necessary to re-cultivate this body, otherwise, it will be impossible to exert its original strength.
Moreover, losing one's own body will have a profound impact on the future, and it may even be impossible to move forward from this point.
Unless a large amount of energy is provided to fully refine the body, such things can be avoided.
So, unless absolutely necessary, no one wants to give up their life.
"Returning to our master, after these three days of recuperation, our strength has recovered by 30%!" the three said.
"Hmm, don't worry, I'll provide you with enough spirit stones to fully recover." Qifeng still wanted the three of them to do things for him, and if they weren't strong enough, it would be meaningless.
"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master." The three of them were overjoyed. To fully recover, they would need at least 10,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Their several families have been established for only a few decades, and the accumulation of their family is only a few thousand high-quality spirit stones. Even if they sell everything in their family, they may not be able to make up this number.
So they were deeply grateful.
"You don't have to thank me, you're the ones who are going to do things for me. Without real power, how can we succeed?" Qi Feng waved his hand and continued: "Alright, this matter is settled. I have something unclear, when did you know that the head of the Lin family had fallen?"
"I knew it a year ago." said Zhao Hong.
"Did you know a year ago?" Qi Feng raised an eyebrow, and then asked: "Since you knew it a year ago, why didn't you take action at that time, but instead waited until a year later to take action?"
"Because we can't confirm Lin Haifeng's life or death, it's just hearsay, so no one dares to make the first move. In the end, someone couldn't bear it and joined forces to pressure us, with no other choice, for the sake of our family, we had to swallow our pride." Shen Hao said this with a hint of hatred in his eyes.
"Who 'forced' you?" asked Qi Feng.
"Basically, everyone participated." said Tang Tian.
"If I let you deal with a few other families, you shouldn't have any difficulties, should you?" asked Qi Feng.
"It's not that it's difficult, but rather our cultivation..."
"Don't worry about this, you just need to go and challenge them on the road, I'll take care of the rest." said Qi Feng.
He had already made plans to gradually encroach on these twenty or so families, because only this way could he incorporate all twenty families into his own.
After all, among these twenty or so Nascent Soul stage experts, there were not a few who were in the middle to late stages of the Nascent Soul. If they were to join forces and deal with him together, his situation would become extremely difficult.
So he can only nibble away bit by bit, constantly weakening their strength, and finally take them down with one blow.
But in order to achieve this plan, the prerequisite is that one cannot take action oneself, and one needs to maintain mystery, so as to intimidate those few guys who really have ambitions.
Once they grasp their own strength, they will probably counterattack immediately, which is something he doesn't want to see.
So he could only let the three of them show up.
"Boss, Hong Ji Xiang and Jiang Shuang have arrived." Suddenly, Li Long rushed in from outside.
"Hong family and Jiang family?" Qi Feng had also roughly understood the situation of the families in this area over the past few days, knowing what kind of people Hong Jixiang and Jiang Shuang were, and also knowing that they were both mid-term masters of Yuan Ying.
The two became sworn brothers and cultivated a joint attack technique. When used with all their might, they could unleash the combat power of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, not to be underestimated.
"Yes." Li Long nodded and said.
"It seems someone can't wait any longer." Qifeng smiled and with a flick of his sleeve, flew out of the courtyard.
"Zi surname child, Lin family's foundation is not something you can possess. If you know what's good for you, leave immediately, otherwise don't blame my brother for being impolite..."
As soon as Zhi Feng came out, he heard such a curse, and his eyebrows involuntarily twitched.
When he came out of the hospital, he saw two middle-aged men.
These two men are ordinary in appearance, Hong Jixiang is more elegant and fair-skinned, while Jiang Shuang is a bit rough, nearly two meters tall, with a dark complexion and a fierce demeanor.
But it was not Jiang Shuang, this black charcoal head, who said such words, but rather Hong Jixiang, this "little white face".
"Are you Qi Tian?" Hong Jixiang saw Qi Feng and immediately showed a disdainful attitude on his face. In his eyes, Qi Feng was just a 10-year-old young man, not worth worrying about.
"It's just me, I don't know what brings you two here?" said Qi Feng.
"This place is not for you to own, please leave quickly." Jiang Shuang said with a refined tone, which was quite out of tune with his ferocious and evil appearance, it took Qi Feng half a day to get used to it.
"Haha, it seems you're looking for trouble." Qi Feng deliberately pretended to be surprised, in order to make them underestimate him.
"Nonsense, do you think we're here to have a heart-to-heart with you?" Hong Jixiang looked at him disdainfully, now he looked down on Qi Feng even more. "If you know what's good for you, get out of my sight quickly, otherwise don't blame me for the consequences."
"Am I supposed to tell you all to scram?" Qi Feng asked with an unusual calm demeanor.
"Either roll away or go die." Hong Jixiang felt he had been played, his anger burning, took out a large knife and charged towards Qifeng.
"I don't know whether I'm dead or alive." Chi Feng's eyes flashed, and a sword appeared beside him. With a single stroke in mid-air, thousands of long swords materialized in the void.
Then, the thousands of long swords transformed into a sword dragon, charging towards Hong Jixiang.
"Is that one real?" Hong Jixiang naturally wouldn't think that Qi Feng would own so many flying swords, so he knew that he was using a special secret method to create multiple illusions, making it seem like there were countless flying swords in the sky, but only one sword was real.
But these swords are all different and it's impossible to determine their authenticity.
"You think you can kill me? You overestimate yourself." Qifeng said disdainfully, and the sword shadows filling the sky condensed into a single sword, pointing directly at Hong Jixiang's brow, and a drop of fresh blood fell from his brow.
Zi Feng didn't kill him, a mid-term cultivator of Yuan Ying is hard to come by, if he can be recruited under his command, it's more valuable than killing him.
"How is this possible?" Hong Jixiang couldn't believe that he had actually lost to Qi Feng, and what's more, he hadn't even been able to withstand a single blow from Qi Feng. If Qi Feng had wanted to, the sword strike just now would have already taken his life.
"There's nothing impossible." Zhi Feng smiled and said, "I'll give you a choice: die or surrender to me!"
"Think you can make me surrender to you? Dream on." Hong Jixiang let out a cold snort, his body suddenly retreating, and in the blink of an eye he appeared beside Jiang Shuang. The two exchanged a glance, simultaneously forming hand seals.
"This is your combo technique? I'd like to see more." Qi Feng also became interested.
In this world, there are countless techniques and secret arts, but the art of combining them is extremely rare. This is because it can concentrate the power of two or more people into a single emission, with terrifying might, making it very difficult to create.
Currently, only a few are circulating in the world, and each one is among the major 'door' factions. The legendary strongest combined attack technique can combine the power of dozens of people together to strike out.
Synergy is not just a simple 1+1=2, but rather a geometric multiplier.
The ancient heavenly "intersection" method given to him was an extremely powerful fusion technique, but what he fused was the primordial spirit power of many people, which could accommodate a hundred people to cast at the same time.
However, he had never seen others perform it before, so he was a bit curious in his heart.
"Hmph, as you wish." Hong Jixiang's face turned cold and stern, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
As they spoke, the two people's hands moved faster and faster, until all that could be seen was a blur of flesh. But then, suddenly, they both stretched out their left and right hands, touching them together to form a strange handprint between them.
Rumble...
A dull thud echoed, and then a pitch-black figure appeared behind them. The figure held a black long spear that was several meters long in its hand, emitting an extremely terrifying aura of pressure.
Afterwards, this dark figure will hold a long spear above its head.
"Scythe of the Reaper!" The two shouted in unison, and that dark figure, like a reaper, threw out the long spear in his hand. A breath of death came forth, enveloping Zhi Feng.
"Death God Spear? These two guys do have some 'door' way." Qi Feng had never heard of such a name before, but he knew that this spear was not simple, and it even made him feel a strong sense of crisis.
"Hmph, you little brat, you shouldn't have waited for us to unleash this secret technique. Even if you're a late-stage Yuan Ying master, you'll still die from this." Hong Jixiang was very clear about this point.
At that time, they relied on this secret method and killed many late-stage Yuan Ying masters.
"I doubt it!" Qi Feng also felt that the spear's power was not low, but its speed wasn't very fast, and dodging it wouldn't be difficult.
But soon he found that no matter how he dodged, the spear was always pointing at him, and the distance between them didn't change at all.
"This..."
"Hmph, once this technique is completed, it will lock down all your qi channels, no matter how you dodge or hide, you won't be able to escape its detection, so today you are definitely going to die." Hong Jixiang's face was full of playful intent.
"This is too much." Qi Feng did not expect that these two people would actually possess such a powerful secret method, and actually have such divine power.
If you're stabbed by this spear, it's very likely that you'll die from it.
"I don't believe it." Qifeng became somewhat anxious, his long sword swung out, a beam of sword light 'shot' out, directly stabbing the spear.
But the spear was as if it didn't exist in this world, the sword light directly swept across its body, but did not cause any harm to the spear, and still quickly rushed towards him.
"It's useless, no matter how powerful you are, you can't stop it. You will definitely die today." Hong Jixiang shouted loudly.
"What kind of sinister magic is this, how can it be so terrifying." Zhi Feng's heart was filled with fear and regret, wondering why he hadn't interrupted them before they finished.
But now it's meaningless to say these things.
"No way, I won't die here." Chi Feng's heart stirred, and his body transformed into a massive long sword, soaring through the air at incredible speed.
However, Qi Feng soon discovered that this was completely useless.
At this moment, the long spear was less than a meter away from him, and the breath it brought made his body and mind shake violently. A deathly aura enveloped his entire body.
"I won't die here!" At this critical moment, Qifeng thought of the Shanhe Map, and thus placed all his hopes on it.
The next moment, he appeared in a place thousands of meters away.
At this moment, he found that the halberd of death that had been following him like a maggot on his heel did not follow again, and slowly disappeared between heaven and earth.
"How is this possible, how did you manage to escape the lock of the God of Death's Spear?" Hong Jixiang was stunned, since they had obtained this technique, it was the first time that the God of Death's Spear had failed, which made them hard to believe.
"Do you think I'd tell you?" Zhi Feng snorted, saying: "Now it's also time for you to take a hit from me."
As he spoke, Qifeng's sword suddenly rose, and three lotus flowers appeared in the sky.
"Qinglian Sword Manual, are you a disciple of Qinglian Sword Sect?" Jiang Shuang asked in shock, his face filled with surprise.
"Not bad!" Zhi Feng acknowledged without hesitation, then said: "You have two choices, surrender or die."
"We give up!" Their strongest Death God Spear couldn't even kill Qifeng, it was clear they weren't his match and didn't want to die either, so they could only admit defeat.
Lost to the disciples of Qinglian Sword Sect, they didn't suffer a loss.
"Very good." Zhi Feng smiled and immediately separated a strand of his spiritual power to pierce into the two people's foreheads.
"Master." they said respectfully.
"En!" Qi Feng nodded, his mood also quite delightful. This time he not only gained two mid-term Yuan Baby experts but also obtained a secret method that moved him to tears.
"Teach me the way of cultivating the Spear of the God of Death." Qifeng asked eagerly.
"Yes!" The two of them couldn't resist, and immediately took out a book from their bosom and handed it to Qi Feng.
Zi Feng eagerly took over the book and began to flip through it, but soon furrowed his brow and looked at the two of them: "Why is this secret method missing so much?"
"Return to the master, this secret method was discovered unintentionally by us two people, and there is no written record. The book you see now is also drawn by us two based on our own understanding." Hong Jixiang said.
"Oh? Tell me more." Qi Feng's interest was piqued.
"That year I and he traveled through the Western Continent, when passing by Tiger Leap Mountain, we discovered an ancient battlefield, where we found a strange stone carving..."
"Wait a minute, you just mentioned the Tiger Leap Mountain in Western Continent? Are you sure you didn't get it wrong?" Qi Feng couldn't help but interrupt them, as he had also heard Yun Liang mention this place before.
And he also said that a large number of kung fu were sealed there, and some situations of the demon clan.
But before he could finish speaking, he was caught by the powerful Mozu using his divine power and taken away. He didn't have a chance to say where this ancient battlefield was located.
And in this short period of time he was busy improving his cultivation, so he hadn't had a chance to go to Hu Yue Shan to investigate yet.
He never thought that at this moment these two guys had actually been to that ancient battlefield, for a while making him have a little yearning for that place.
"I won't remember wrongly." Jiang Shuang nodded and said firmly.
"So you must know the location of the ancient battlefield?" Qifeng asked.
"Yes." Hong Jixiang nodded and said.
"Great, after you've dealt with things here, take me to see that place." Qi Feng naturally wanted to go to the ancient battlefield, not to mention anything else, for this Dead God Spear, he had to make a trip.
"Ah!" The two of them heard this and their expressions changed, as if something terrifying had occurred.
"What's wrong, you don't want to?" Qi Feng's attitude became unpleasant.
"No, no, that ancient battlefield is extremely terrifying, with incredibly frightening monsters. Back then, it just glanced at us from afar and we almost exploded to death, so... "
"Is this really happening?" Qi Feng raised an eyebrow, feeling that something was off, and asked: "Since it's so strong, why didn't it kill you all instead of letting you escape?"
"This we don't know," said Hong Jixiang.
