A Frustrating Battle
"Whoosh!" The green-robed man, known as the 'demon,' glanced coldly at the panicked Storm Tribe residents below before flying directly towards the green castle. The castle gates opened wide, and someone immediately led the demon inside respectfully.
Needless to say, the young man in the cyan robe was Luo Feng, who had received the Six-Star Fiend quest. After nearly a year, he finally arrived at the Storm Tribe, and now there were only a few months left until the three-year deadline of the quest.
At this moment, in the castle's main hall, sitting at the top was a tall, imposing middle-aged man with an expressionless face.
This hall has always been the place where the Storm Tribe discusses and makes decisions on important matters.
Seated in the main seat, the majestic and domineering chieftain of the Storm Tribe immediately sensed Luo Feng's arrival. He glanced at the large group of tribesmen sitting around the conference table before him and cleared his throat. This sound spread through the hall like a plague in the blink of an eye. The tribesmen, who had been discussing amongst themselves, fell silent as if trembling with fear, and the entire hall instantly became as quiet as if a bird had fallen silent.
Ten breaths later, the door to the hall was pushed open, and standing outside was a handsome young man with long, snow-blue hair.
The chieftain of the Storm Tribe didn't even glance at Luo Feng, but the head steward politely said, "May I ask which demon has descended? I am Ke'en, the head steward of the Storm Tribe."
Luo Feng said calmly, "I am Luo Feng, Five-Star Fiend from Fallen Moon City. Your mission is the one I accepted." He seemed completely unaffected by Naikesi's indifference.
"Hehe, now that the Five-Star Fiend Luo Feng has arrived, our chances of winning this time should be much greater. Lord Luo Feng, please go and rest. There will be a major battle in about two months, and we will need your assistance then." The Storm Tribe's chief steward said sincerely. Although Luo Feng Luo Feng himself claimed to be Five-Star Fiend, his willingness to accept a Six-Star Fiend mission indicated that he already possessed the strength of Six-Star Fiend.
As the last rays of the Storm Tribe sun disappear below the horizon, it signifies that the Stormwind Horde will once again enjoy a peaceful day. At this time, most of the Storm Tribe's residents, who have been busy and bustling all day, are completely unaware that a monstrous undercurrent is quietly surging within the Storm Tribe. When it finally erupts, it will be the moment when the Storm Tribe is destined to be stained with blood.
Finally, after several dozen days, Naikesi stood on the city wall with his hands behind his back, like a statue, staring intently into the layers of mist, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
The Storm Tribe's mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, yet a thousand miles away from the mountain range...
Two Metallic Lifeform flew side by side toward the Storm Tribe. These two giant monsters were extremely large, but their speed was also extremely fast, and they produced amazing air bursts during their flight.
The ear-piercing sound instantly reverberated throughout the entire Storm Tribe, even waking Luo Feng from his cultivation. However, Luo Feng Luo Feng paid no heed to this evil; he was only concerned with dealing with the tribal leaders behind him. The tribal battles ahead had nothing to do with Luo Feng. He was simply waiting for Naikesi's telepathic message, at which point he would go out to help.
Naikesi stood suspended in mid-air. Although the battle around him was fierce, he was like a reef in the waves, and no one could shake him.
Naikesi watched all of this with indifference.
He didn't care at all when the warriors and residents of the tribe died.
"That's enough!" Naikesi said in a low voice. "You've gone too far, Mati, Nuyi, Qie'ernuo, how dare you three be greedy and try to take advantage of me? You can all die."
The burly man with the tiger-like head, the gaunt man in the golden robe, and the man shrouded in black robes all laughed.
"Make your move!" A hoarse voice suddenly rang in Luo Feng's ears.
"Whoosh!" A cyan blade of energy instantly rippled through the sky, creating ripples in the space where it passed. The people fighting below suddenly saw a cyan blade of energy shoot out from the cyan castle. Immediately afterward, a handsome young man in a cyan robe appeared beside Naikesi, the chieftain of the Storm Tribe. Looking at the medal on his back, it was clearly a demon.
"This Naikesi really did have a hidden hand. Damn it, who betrayed us? They actually gave him time to ask the demon to make a move. I never expected this," Nuyi, the man in the golden robe, muttered.
The man in the golden robe Nuyi, narrowed his eyes, a cold glint in them, and he growled, "Kill!"
"Naikesi, we are indeed no match for you in terms of strength, but I refuse to believe that the three of us Six-Star Fiend are extremely close to Quasi-Seven Star Fiend. You were already Quasi-Seven Star Fiend back then. Although so many years have passed, I refuse to believe that the three of us are no match for you, a Quasi-Seven Star Fiend- seven-star demon. Naikesi, don't be too greedy. Share some with us." The burly man, Mati, growled. In truth, they didn't want to fight Naikesi either, because they knew their own strength. Naikesi was a top-tier Six-Star Fiend back then, comparable to Quasi-Seven Star Fiend. The three of them were, after all, still Six-Star Fiend, infinitely close to Quasi-Seven Star Fiend. Who knew how strong he would be tens of thousands of years later? After all, if they succeeded, all would be well, but if they failed, they would suffer heavy losses.
Luo Feng was stunned. Hand him over?
Naikesi laughed, "So what? Those 5 trillion Inkstone are in my hands. What can you do to me? I killed them, and I took the spatial ring, so what? You want a piece of the pie from me Naikesi? Dream on."
As soon as the words were spoken, the two sides stopped wasting time and began a fierce battle.
"Boom!"
The space itself trembled violently, and a terrifying shockwave spread outwards.
The burly man with the tiger-like head was pointing his giant sword at Luo Feng, while the other two were fighting with Naikesi.
Immediately, all five found their opponents. Luo Feng mainly dealt with the burly man with the tiger's head, while Naikesi took on two opponents at once.
Luo Feng smiled, entangled the tiger-headed giant, activated his Death Ripple, and engaged in a fierce battle with the tiger-headed giant. Seeing that the battle on Naikesi's side was becoming more and more intense, the giant no longer held back and prepared to go all out.
"Roar~"
A deafening roar resounded through the heavens and earth, and a colossal blood tiger, radiating a crimson light, hovered in mid-air. In the very center of the blood tiger, Luo Feng could clearly see the burly man with the tiger's head standing tall.
Luo Feng was startled. The divine beast, the Heaven-Burning Blood Tiger? Then he saw the giant blood tiger in the sky disappear, and it actually released a blood-red mist. This blood-red mist spread very quickly, covering Luo Feng in the blink of an eye.
Innate Divine Ability: Slaughter Blood Mist.
This Innate Divine Ability is extremely supportive, and coupled with the fact that this burly man's strength is not much weaker than Luo Feng's, Luo Feng can only unleash 80% of his full power. What's the point of fighting like this? For the first time, Luo Feng felt very frustrated in his battle. He was always the one suppressing others, but this time, he had encountered an opponent who countered him.
However, Luo Feng would not retreat easily. Even if he couldn't win, he would fight first. He released the Death Ripple to its strongest state. Seeing that the blood mist only paused for a moment before returning to normal, Luo Feng knew that the tiger-headed man was not affected at all.
Mati was in her element within the crimson mist, while Luo Feng was helplessly suppressed. His strongest attacks were speed and soul attacks, but in the crimson mist, his Death Ripple soul attacks had no effect on Mati at all, and even his attack speed was affected, making the fight extremely difficult.
As Mati moved at breakneck speed through the blood mist, his greatsword unleashed hundreds of sword shadows, each unique. When he unleashed the final sword shadow...
Suddenly, countless sword shadows in mid-air formed a shape—a blooming blood-red lotus flower—and struck Luo Feng. This move was the signature move that Mati relied on to make him famous, and combined with his Innate Divine Ability, it was extremely powerful.
"Huh?" Luo Feng's expression changed immediately.
The crimson lotus flower had completely sealed off the surrounding space, leaving him nowhere to escape but to withstand it.
"Explode!" "Explode!" "Explode!" "Explode!"
Several explosions rang out almost simultaneously, and Luo Feng Luo Feng blasted into the air, crashing directly onto the surface of the mountain below, where he was completely submerged.
In an instant, Luo Feng stood up again. At this moment, Luo Feng's face was pale and there was still blood at the corner of his mouth. He originally wanted to go up again, but then he thought that he had promised Catherine to go back alive. This guy was obviously suppressing him. Even if he forced his way up now, he might not necessarily gain anything. So he gritted his teeth, turned into a stream of light, and disappeared from the tiger-headed man's sight.
Then the burly man named Mati looked in Luo Feng's direction, realized he couldn't catch up, and left to join Nuyi and the others in their battle.
