Return to Longxing, Preparing for Training

Not long after his words fell.

The Golden Horned Behemoth carrying Jin Feng, Niu Ben, and the Second Elder flashed into the sight of Tang Feng and the other Clear Sky Sect clansmen with a whoosh.

Tang Feng looked at Jin Feng standing atop the Golden Horned Behemoth.

A strange glint flashed through his eyes. Though he could not understand why the Defense Clan had brought such a young child into the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast region.

One thing was certain.

Jin Feng was extremely important to the Defense Clan.

At that thought, an idea suddenly surfaced in his mind. If the negotiations broke down, he could find an opportunity to capture Jin Feng and use him as leverage to escape.

No one knew what Tang Feng was thinking.

Even if they had known, they would not have cared. After all, for two six-ring Soul Emperors to capture Jin Feng under Niu Gao's protection was nothing more than wishful thinking.

At that moment.

Jin Feng stood atop the Golden Horned Behemoth.

Looking down at the frowning Clear Sky Sect clansmen below, he said coldly, "Back then, the Clear Sky Sect chose to hide like turtles, causing so many members of my Defense Clan to perish. And you still have the nerve to claim you had your reasons?"

"After such a blood feud, you think one lousy Soul Bone is enough to settle everything and let you leave safely?"

"What wishful thinking!"

"Kill you, and the Soul Bone will still be ours!"

"None of you will leave today. I will use your blood to honor the fallen souls of the Defense Clan!"

At those words.

Everyone from the Clear Sky Sect wore grim expressions.

They had not expected the Defense Clan to refuse to let them go even after they offered up a Soul Bone!

After a moment of silence.

Tang Feng looked at Jin Feng atop the Golden Horned Behemoth.

Unable to fly and finding no opportunity to approach him, Tang Feng suddenly said, "In the past two years, two more elders of my Clear Sky Sect have broken through to become Titled Douluo... You had better consider the consequences of killing us."

Hearing that.

Jin Feng said with disdain, "The Star Dou Forest is so vast. If we kill all of you, who could trace it back to us?"

"As for the Clear Sky Sect?"

"It is nothing more than a gathering place for cowardly turtles. So what if you have more Titled Douluo? Within twenty years, I will turn them into history and erase them completely from the Douluo Continent!"

"I will make your entire sect atone for the mistakes you committed back then..."

Faced with Jin Feng's repeated insults.

Tang Yang, who already had a violent temper, could no longer endure it. Pointing his Clear Sky Hammer at Jin Feng atop the Golden Horned Behemoth, he said, "Insolent! It is not your place, you brat, to judge our sect!"

"You say you will destroy the Clear Sky Sect within twenty years. Do you have the qualifications?"

Facing Tang Yang's challenge.

A strange curve lifted at the corner of Jin Feng's lips. "Whether I do or not, you will find out soon enough!"

"Grandfather, Uncle, Second Elder, I want these two Soul Emperors alive. I will deal with them personally!"

At those words.

Niu Ben and the Second Elder immediately leaped from the Golden Horned Behemoth into the Clear Sky Sect's ranks. Niu Gao also made his move from the ground, preparing to subdue the two Soul Emperors first.

Before the martial-soul-evolved Niu Gao and the other two, the Clear Sky Sect clansmen would not have been a match even at their peak, much less now.

Thus, before long.

Of the twelve Clear Sky Sect Soul Masters, only two heavily injured Soul Emperors remained. All the others had perished.

Jin Feng looked at Tang Feng and Tang Yang, who were surrounded by his grandfather, uncle, and the Second Elder, so badly injured that they could barely stand.

He controlled the Golden Horned Behemoth to land.

As he walked toward them, the Golden Horned Behemoth turned into a streak of golden light and entered his body, helping him complete Martial Soul Possession.

When Tang Feng and Tang Yang saw that the enormous Golden Horned Behemoth was not only Jin Feng's Martial Soul but could also be used for Martial Soul Possession, their eyes widened in shock.

Then.

Before either of them could speak.

Two Soul Rings, one purple and one black, slowly rose beneath the feet of Jin Feng as he approached them with the Black Gold Longblade in hand.

!!!

At that sight.

Tang Feng and Tang Yang completely lost their minds.

They could not help crying out, "A thousand-year first ring, a ten-thousand-year second ring!"

"How is that possible?"

"There is nothing impossible!" Jin Feng grinned savagely. "Just because you cannot do it does not mean no one else can..."

By then.

Tang Yang and Tang Feng finally understood why Jin Feng dared to claim he would destroy the Clear Sky Sect within twenty years.

It turned out.

He truly had that potential!

Once the cold-eyed Jin Feng reached Tang Feng and Tang Yang, who could no longer even lift their Clear Sky Hammers.

He raised his blade without a word.

Swish! Swish!

As two sharp sounds tore through the air.

Tang Feng and Tang Yang only felt pain at their necks. Then their vision rapidly dropped until their eyes were pressed against the ground, and only then did they completely lose consciousness.

"Urgh~"

Unlike when he had controlled the Golden Horned Behemoth to kill those Spirit Hall Soul Masters earlier.

After personally beheading Tang Feng and Tang Yang.

Jin Feng, who had killed someone with his own hands for the first time across both his lives, could not stop his hands from trembling. His stomach churned, and he instinctively retched.

Seeing this.

Niu Gao hurried over.

Patting Jin Feng's back, he said with heartache, "Xiao Feng, why did you have to do it today?"

Hearing him.

Jin Feng slowly raised his slightly pale little face and said, "I would have to go through it sooner or later. The sooner I face it, the sooner I can adapt."

After saying that.

He wiped his mouth and said to Niu Gao, "All right, Grandfather. I have adapted already. Let's go!"

"Hmm???"

Niu Gao stared at Jin Feng, whose complexion was gradually returning to normal, and froze. "That quickly?"

"How long should it take?"

"Should I keep vomiting?"

"..."

At that.

Niu Gao fell silent.

Remembering how he had needed a whole week to recover after his first kill, he helplessly shook his head.

Perhaps that was the difference between a genius and an ordinary person.

After having the Golden Horned Behemoth clean up the valley and leave behind no trace of the Defense Clan, the group continued their journey home with Gu Yuena.

The following afternoon.

Jin Feng and the others returned to Longxing City once more.

Inside the familiar Clan Chief Hall.

After the Great Elder, Third Elder, and Fourth Elder heard about the group's experiences and gains from this trip.

They all clapped and cheered.

"Well killed!"

"When our Defense Clan faces people from Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect, we should not show mercy. Kill them all and leave none alive!"

"Xiao Na truly is a lucky star!"

"She casually mentioned treasure hunting on a whim, and you found so many Gold Soul Coins and three Soul Bones in the Swift Golden Roc's nest!"

"Wait, adding the Soul Bone that dropped from inside the Swift Golden Roc and the one obtained from the Clear Sky Sect, does that mean you got five Soul Bones in total during this trip to hunt Xiao Feng's second Soul Ring?"

"My heavens... Someone pinch me and let me see whether I am dreaming!"

"The two soul skills Xiao Feng gained this time are powerful enough too. It is just a pity that his body cannot absorb Soul Bones, so he will be missing several Soul Bone skills!"

"..."

Once the discussion in the hall ended.

Jin Feng immediately took out the five Soul Bones obtained during this trip from his Storage Soul Tool and placed them on the table, making everyone present burn with envy.

After some discussion.

They finally decided who would receive the Soul Bones.

Clan Chief Niu Gao received the highest-quality fifty-thousand-year head Soul Bone to strengthen his spiritual power and break through to the eight-ring Soul Douluo rank as soon as possible.

When it came to distributing the other four Soul Bones.

Because the Great Elder already possessed an inherited Soul Bone, he directly chose to give up his share and proposed that the Second Elder, Third Elder, Fourth Elder, and Niu Ben each receive one.

Seeing the Great Elder act this way.

Jin Feng subconsciously said, "Great Elder, when I obtain another Soul Bone next time, I will let you absorb it first."

"Hahaha!"

The Great Elder immediately laughed heartily. "All right, then I will wait for you to give me a Soul Bone, Xiao Feng."

After the Soul Bones were distributed.

Jin Feng seemed to think of something.

He suddenly looked at Niu Gao and said, "Right, Grandfather. Next, I plan to undergo practical combat training at the Great Soul Arenas in the major cities throughout the Star Luo Empire."
