Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement
Chapter 510 - 252: Rout (Part 3)
"Are you alright?"
Seeing Jiang Feng return, Han Dong rushed over directly.
The commotion was so loud that even the common folk could hear it, and Han Dong was no exception. She was hiding inside the Imperial City, afraid to go out, fearing the Lin Family Cultivator would find her and become a burden to Jiang Feng. She only knew that Jiang Feng was fighting the Lin Family Cultivator at the South City Tower, which constantly worried her.
"I’m fine. When Xiao Zhan comes over later, have him keep a close watch on the underground passage; no one should approach the Underground Palace."
After Jiang Feng gave Han Dong a kiss on the cheek, he vanished from the Imperial City, and his figure appeared inside the Underground Palace.
"You rascal."
Han Dong touched her cheek, Jiang Feng’s saliva was still there, leaving her a bit amused and helpless.
"Let you taste the power of the Blood God Curse."
Inside the Underground Palace, Jiang Feng quickly began to cast spells.
Indeed, he had taken the blood left by the three people, intending to use the Blood God Curse against them.
It was safest to cast spells inside the Underground Palace.
No need to worry about anyone breaking in and interrupting him, causing backlash.
He activated the Cultivation Technique for the Blood God Curse; a vast expanse of blood light burst from his body, spreading in all directions, as if enveloping the outer region of the Underground Palace.
"The entire surrounding of the Underground Palace is a Restriction Array; casting spells from here will halve the power of your Curse Killing Divine Skill, and your Life Functions will be greatly depleted."
Suddenly, a wolf’s howl came from the depths of the Underground Palace.
Though it was a howl, it sounded to Jiang Feng like a Venerable speaking to him.
"Thank you, senior."
Jiang Feng knew it was the Three-tailed Wolf King, fortunately, the blood of the three hadn’t been tossed into the Purgatory Cage yet; he stopped the Blood God Curse and bowed towards the depths of the Underground Palace. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Then he left the Underground Palace.
Thinking it over, he headed to Black Iron Mountain.
"Xiao Zhan, turn off the City Defense Array; I need to cast spells to kill the enemy!"
On Black Iron Mountain, Jiang Feng wrapped his Spiritual Sense around the entire Dragon Capital. He saw Xiao Zhan leading Purple Bamboo Forest Cultivators, still guarding near the city tower, controlling the entrance to the underground passage, personnel control tighter than before. He immediately transmitted a message to Xiao Zhan.
He worried that the City Defense Array would also interfere with the Blood God Curse.
"Immortal Master, yes."
"Turn off the City Defense Array."
After Xiao Zhan confirmed it was Jiang Feng, he immediately ordered the array to be turned off. Although everyone was puzzled, they complied.
"Buzz!"
With the City Defense Array turned off, blood light soared from the top of Black Iron Mountain, like a red glow, illuminating the entire Dragon Capital. The range of blood light expanded wider and wider, turning the entire Black Iron Mountain red.
Jingzhou City.
"Uncle, why have you returned; is Jiang Feng dead?"
"Oh... you’re injured."
The Blood Sea Immortal Venerable led Lin Family members and a batch of Loose Cultivators; they had just rushed to Jingzhou City, about to enter the northern territory from the south, when they encountered three elders.
These three elders had set out last night to the Dragon Capital to slay Jiang Feng, yet suddenly returned and were injured?
"Hmph!"
The three elders looked grim; one snorted coldly, turned his back, and said nothing, clearly feeling disgraced.
Finally, the most mild-tempered elder among the three said, "Qinglong Cauldron’s defense was beyond our expectations; Jiang Feng caught us off guard. He broke our Lin Family’s Seven-Star Sword Technique; the three of us suffered severe vitality injuries and need a long recovery before we can confront him again."
"Ah? How did this happen?"
The Blood Sea Immortal Venerable gaped.
"Didn’t we tell you already? Do you think us three old guys are useless?"
The hot-tempered elder, seeing the Blood Sea Immortal Venerable’s expression, was furious.
"Uncle Qi, nephew doesn’t mean that; I’m just worried all opportunities in the Underground Palace have been taken by Jiang Feng; I’ve learned that Jiang Feng can freely enter and exit the Underground Palace through Qinglong Cauldron and the Five Elements Array."
The Blood Sea Immortal Venerable explained.
Upon hearing this, everyone was anxious.
"He only has one Dragon Bone Bow; let’s go and kill him together, see how many arrows he can shoot."
Lian Junmiao raised his hand in the crowd.
He appeared here unexpectedly.
He captivated everyone’s attention.
Especially the three elders, who stared directly at him.
"If you hadn’t said Jiang Feng was waiting for us to enter the Divine Sect Mansion to ambush us, we wouldn’t have gone to Dragon Capital overnight to attack him."
The hot-tempered elder became more and more suspicious.
"Did you get sent here?"
The elder angrily asked.
"Senior, I did not utter a single lie; Jiang Feng and Xiao Zhan indeed planned to do so. I... I’m now on your side, unrelated to Jiang Feng. I can swear to the heavens."
Lian Junmiao realized the unease and explained solemnly.
"Pfft!"
From the silent elder among the three, a Flying Sword flashed, slicing off Lian Junmiao’s head and shattering his soul with one stroke. Then he spat and croaked, "We suffered a great loss, and he dared to mislead us into our demise."
"This guy is a fence-sitter; even if he’s not Jiang Feng’s man now, he ought to be killed."
The hot-tempered elder agreed.
Originally, Lian Junmiao, after investigating the Blood Sea Immortal Venerable’s whereabouts in the Blood Domain, realized the Lin Family had a Cultivation Clan background, thus conceived the idea of joining them.
But to obtain Spiritual Spring Water, he also disclosed several crucial pieces of information to Jiang Feng.
Later, upon noticing more Lin Family Cultivators entering Central Earth, he felt Jiang Feng and Xiao Zhan couldn’t possibly stand against them, so he volunteered to monitor Lin Family Cultivators’ actions on the coastline.
That day, after Jiang Feng and Xiao Zhan reached an agreement.
Lian Junmiao left Dragon Capital again, ostensibly to the coastline to record Lin Family Cultivators’ movements, but in reality, he headed directly to the Divine Sect, found the Blood Sea Immortal Venerable, and revealed Jiang Feng and Xiao Zhan’s plans to them.
