A Six-Zhang Golden Body

"No! It's not a white tiger!"

What appeared in mid-air was a crimson phantom of a Vermilion Bird!

"The Vermilion Bird phantom?! Why was it that when the four of us joined forces, we could only conjure a White Tiger phantom?!"

"This formation is clearly the same one that Wu Qingfeng set up that day!"

Just as Xiao Tianqi was racking his brains trying to figure it out, the phantom of the Vermilion Bird in mid-air let out a long cry, folded its wings, and swooped down towards the ground, disappearing into the horde of beasts and vanishing without a trace.

Then, a strange scene unfolded!

The corpses of the demonic beasts that had just been killed by the white tiger's phantom were all refined by an invisible force, transforming into streams of pure life force that flowed into Lu Feng's body like rivers flowing into the sea!

At this moment, a phantom image of a blue dragon appeared around Lu Feng.

Lu Feng felt a surge of energy. Not only had most of his depleted True Essence been restored, but some of the hidden injuries left by the fierce battles of the past few days were also healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Thus, the complete picture of this Four Symbols Formation was finally revealed:

The demonic beasts in the back mountain could not break through the Black Tortoise Wall and could only be harvested in droves by the white tiger's phantom.

The remains were then refined by the Vermilion Bird phantom, and finally transformed by the Azure Dragon phantom into boundless vitality, which continuously nourished Lu Feng's body.

Three hours later, all the tens of thousands of demonic beasts in the back mountain were slaughtered.

The most terrifying thing is that, in the vast back mountain, not even a single monster's corpse could be found.

All the corpses were completely refined by the Four Symbols Formation, nourishing the body in return.

"No wonder... no wonder Lu Feng's cultivation has improved so quickly!"

Outside the entrance, Wei Qingxuan watched this scene and muttered to himself.

In his mind, Lu Feng's rapid progress in cultivation must be due to the Four Symbols Formation, which allowed him to slaughter demonic beasts, refine their life force, and nourish himself.

This kind of training method is simply the shortcut that all martial artists dream of.

"Nailed it."

Just then, Lu Feng retrieved the Eight Trigrams Profound Mystery Disc, and with a flicker of his figure, returned to the two of them.

At this moment, not only was his True Essence not depleted in the slightest, but it had also been restored to its perfect state, and even the fatigue from the previous fierce battle had been swept away.

"Good lad, I didn't expect you to be this strong. I'm afraid even I am no match for you!"

Wei Qingxuan looked him up and down, his face full of smiles.

"You are too modest, sir. You have already reached the Celestial Person Realm Second Layer; how could a junior like me be worthy of being your opponent?"

"Haha! Putting aside strength, I dare not accept the title of 'sir'." Wei Qingxuan waved his hand.

"If you don't mind, from now on you can call me Brother Wei, and I'll call you Brother Feng, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng subconsciously glanced at Xiao Tianqi beside him, then looked troubled.

"This... isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Why are you looking at him? What's wrong with him?

"Hehe, Brother Wei, you have no idea!"

Xiao Tianqi rarely cracked a joke.

"Lu Feng calls me Uncle Xiao. If he calls you Brother Wei... then what do you think you should call me?"

Wei Qingxuan was not annoyed by this, and waved his hands repeatedly:

"That's alright, let's each handle our own cases! It's settled then! Feng, you have no objections now, right?"

Seeing this, Lu Feng could only smile and nod.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Xiao Tianqi's expression turned serious, and he said to the two of them:

"The original plan was to loot the treasure vault and the library, and then return immediately."

"But after experiencing this beast tide, I feel that we should stay here for a few more days to thoroughly investigate Vajra Temple and Mount Shaoshi to see if there are any other hidden dangers."

Lu Feng and Wei Qingxuan naturally had no objections and nodded in unison.

The three then returned to the main hall of the Vajra Temple.

At this moment, all the disciples of the Demon-Slaying Bureau had gathered here, each with a smile on their face. They huddled together in twos and threes, whispering and discussing the resources they had just been allocated.

Upon seeing the three enter, the hall immediately fell silent.

Standing before the crowd, Xiao Tianqi spoke loudly:

"The Vajra Temple is now destroyed. But who could have imagined that this renowned Buddhist holy site would secretly collude with demonic beasts! Just now, you all saw that there were tens of thousands of demonic beasts hiding in the back mountain!"

"If it weren't for Commandant Lu's timely deployment of the formation, which turned the tide and trapped and killed the entire horde of beasts, the consequences would have been unimaginable if these beasts had broken out of Mount Shaoshi!"

"So next, everyone split up and carefully investigate every corner of Vajra Temple and Mount Shaoshi. If you find anything unusual, report it immediately!"

Upon hearing that Lu Feng had single-handedly set up an array to trap and kill tens of thousands of demonic beasts, an uproar immediately erupted among the crowd.

"Commandant Lu? Could it be him? He looks quite young. I didn't expect that someone who has become a captain would know how to set up formations!" a demon slayer muttered softly.

"Huh? Don't you know him?"

"Should I know him?" The demon slayer looked bewildered.

At this moment, another demon slayer took over the conversation:

"That's Lu Feng!"

"What?! He's Lu Feng?! Lu Feng, the champion of the Five-City Grand Competition?!" the man exclaimed in shock.

Lu Feng had always been his idol, and he never expected to meet him in True Person here!

When did he become a captain?

"Just yesterday. You were out on a mission yesterday, so you don't know."

"Let me tell you, Commandant Lu has his own entire prefecture! It's a pity that Commandant Lu's prefecture doesn't publicly recruit people, otherwise, I would definitely be the first to sign up!" another demon slayer said with a regretful look.

Upon hearing this, some people's eyes flashed with surprise, while others remained calm, clearly already aware of the news.

After everyone had received their orders and dispersed, Xiao Tianqi walked up to Lu Feng and said to him:

"I will be stationed in the main hall for the next few days. You've been through a lot of battles and are quite exhausted. There's a secret room behind this hall; you should rest and recuperate here."

"I'll let you know if anything urgent happens."

What about me?

Upon hearing Xiao Tianqi's arrangement, Wei Qingxuan asked.

"Go find He Tieshan's wife and children first, then personally escort them back to Linfeng City."

"He Tieshan is a rare master craftsman; we cannot afford any mistakes."

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Wei Qingxuan understood Xiao Tianqi's intentions.

Having saved He Tieshan's family, it will be much easier to ask this master to forge Spirit Artifact in the future.

It should be noted that the entire North City Demon-Slaying Bureau currently possesses only five Spirit Artifact artifacts in total.

Then, Wei Qingxuan vanished from the main hall in a flash.

After Wei Qingxuan left, Lu Feng also went to the secret room behind the main hall.

The secret room was quite simple, containing nothing but a futon.

Lu Feng sat cross-legged on the futon and immediately took out the Bloodthirsty Saber from his storage bag.

As soon as he got his hands on the knife, his arms suddenly felt heavy. Even with his current physical strength, he found it somewhat difficult to grip the knife with both hands.

"I never expected that after it was forged, the weight of this sword would be several times heavier than before!"

Without thinking further, Lu Feng bit his tongue, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the blade.

The life essence was instantly absorbed by the Bloodthirsty Saber.

Immediately afterwards, a flash of blood appeared on the blade.

Immediately, a feeling of blood connection arose spontaneously.

Lu Feng clearly felt that a mysterious connection had been established between him and this Bloodthirsty Saber.

Strangely enough, after recognizing its master, the Bloodthirsty Saber felt less than half the weight in my hand.
