"What!!"
The Old Man Black Xuan was filled with terror. He hadn't expected Li Changfeng to be able to kill him so quickly. He didn't have Li Changfeng's strong and tough physique, and his injuries were much more severe than Li Changfeng's. He couldn't even muster his true energy.
Seeing that the attack was too fierce to avoid, the Old Man Black Xuan twisted his face and roared, "Li Changfeng! You forced me to do this!"
The Old Man Black Xuan took out seven three-inch-long steel needles and suddenly inserted them into several acupoints on his body to stimulate his potential, causing his entire body to erupt with a terrifying aura.
Then, suddenly, streams of black true energy surged into the iron staff, bursting out with a dazzling black light. He held the staff with both hands to block Li Changfeng's fierce attack!
"Bang"!!
Li Changfeng's fifty-foot-long dark golden dragon-elephant sword energy slammed into the thick, hard iron staff of the Old Man Black Xuan, producing a violent collision sound. The Old Man Black Xuan was so shaken by this domineering and fierce force that his legs went weak and he knelt on one knee.
The immense force caused the earthquake to split open like a spider web. Li Changfeng's arms were bulging with veins as he exerted his strength. Where the giant sword and iron staff clashed, bursts of intense sparks erupted, accompanied by a hissing sound. It seemed as if he was about to crush the Old Man Black Xuan to death with sheer force!
The Old Man Black Xuan had bloodshot eyes, and his intense will to survive unleashed a powerful force. "I cannot die!!"
With a loud shout, the Old Man Black Xuan, driven by his will to survive, forcefully deflected Li Changfeng's giant sword. He then turned and swung his iron staff fiercely toward Li Changfeng's head, displaying extreme ferocity!
"Die!!"
Seeing this, Li Changfeng sneered, "Like an ant trying to shake a tree, you're overestimating yourself!"
Li Changfeng unleashed his full power, activating the Draconic Elephant Prajna and unleashing the second move of the Heavy Sword, No Edge, "Sweeping a Thousand Armies." Behind Li Changfeng, the awe-inspiring power of seven dragons and seven elephants appeared, and streams of violent Draconic Elephant True Qi surged into the giant sword.
Holding the sword in his right hand, he suddenly slashed horizontally, then switched to his left hand and slashed three times in quick succession, the greatsword carrying an incomparably powerful and fierce momentum.
The force of the whipped-up wind created a storm of sword energy that swept across the land, transforming into a fifty-foot-long dark golden dragon-elephant sword energy storm that violently struck the Old Man Black Xuan with its staff, its power extremely fierce and domineering!
"Bang!"
A violent metallic clang rang out as Li Changfeng's dark golden Dragon Elephant Sword Qi storm clashed head-on with the Old Man Black Xuan's furious staff, unleashing an extremely violent shockwave. The Old Man Black Xuan's iron staff was forcibly shattered by Li Changfeng's violent force.
The remaining storm of dragon and elephant sword energy suddenly engulfed the Old Man Black Xuan, lifting him into the air and splattering him with a shower of blood and gore. Before dying, the Old Man Black Xuan cried out in despair, "I hate it!!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Old Man Black Xuan turned into a cloud of blood mist and died instantly, beyond any doubt.
Upon hearing Old Man Black Xuan's words, Li Changfeng shook his head. "You hate? What a joke!"
"Oh no! Damn it! I hit too hard and tore all his belongings to shreds!"
Li Changfeng then looked ahead and found that all the items had been smashed by him, which pained him greatly.
Suddenly, Li Changfeng noticed a severed finger nearby, with a black ring faintly visible on it. Upon seeing this, Li Changfeng's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He picked up the severed finger, removed the black ring, and subtly channeled his mind into it.
A moment later.
Li Changfeng's face lit up with joy. "Hahaha! It really is Storage Ring! I didn't expect that Old Man Black Xuan would have such a treasure, but it's more than ten times worse than my master's!"
Storage Ring are extremely rare and hard to come by. Only a few sect leaders possess them, and it's very difficult for others to own one. Only Li Changfeng, the chosen one, was able to obtain two!
Li Changfeng found 220,000 silver notes, some miscellaneous qi-tonifying pills and elixirs, and an unidentified fragment of a scroll inside the ring.
Li Changfeng slowly picked up the incomplete scroll and examined it. He discovered that the scroll was actually a secret technique for stimulating one's own potential acupoints, which could unleash more than twice one's own power. The side effect was that the body would be weak for three days and one would not be able to use true qi.
"This is a powerful life-saving secret technique! Fortunately, that Old Man Black Xuan is already old and his potential is limited, otherwise, if he had unleashed his full power, I would have been the one who died!"
After carefully examining the incomplete scroll, Li Changfeng learned it in no time. This secret technique was not difficult; as long as one remembered the acupoints and inserted steel needles, one could unleash powerful force.
"Boom!!"
Suddenly, a loud explosion came from the left front, the sound echoing throughout the forest, startling Li Changfeng. "It sounds like there's a big battle going on over there!"
After hesitating for a moment, Li Changfeng decided to go and check what had happened!
The site of a major battle.
At this moment, Elder Wang of the Free and Unfettered Sect was surrounded and attacked by several sect elders. His body was a mess, blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, and he looked at everyone with a face full of rage!
"Do you really intend to fight us Free and Unfettered Sect, to the death?!"
The elder of the Mount Song Sect smiled slightly upon hearing this, "That's not true! We only want the Meridian Expansion Pill you have!"
The Elder Zhou laughed and said, "Yes! Brother Wang! As long as you hand over the pills, we'll spare your life!"
The elder of the Flower Shifting Palace snorted coldly, "Why are we wasting so much time talking to him? We've already offended the Free and Unfettered Sect. If we want to keep the secret, we have no choice but to kill him!"
Upon hearing this, a murderous glint flashed in everyone's eyes, and they rushed forward to surround Elder Wang, eager to kill him on the spot!
Elder Wang panicked upon seeing this and hurriedly said, "Wait! Everyone, please hear me out!"
"The pills aren't on me. I gave them to Li Wuyai, who took them inside the capital. If you don't believe me, you can search me!"
Elder Wang's words immediately caused everyone's expressions to darken slightly. They stripped Elder Wang naked on the spot and found that he indeed had no pills on him.
"Damn it! He lured us away from our base!"
Elder Wang's face was grim. For the sake of his future prospects, he was willing to abandon his dignity and forcibly endure this humiliation.
With the current overwhelming numbers, he was powerless to retaliate. He could only keep these people in mind and vow to repay them in the future!
"Everyone! I don't have the elixir on me now, so any injuries you caused me are null and void. I'll take my leave now!"
The crowd surrounded Elder Wang, leering, "Elder Wang! You think you can just leave like this?"
