The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 102: Earth-Fire Flame Demon!

Escape?

Ling Feng's brow furrowed deeply at the word "escape," his mind swirling with confusion.

Why would grandfather want me to flee?

What could be the reason for grandfather's own flight?

Ling Feng tightened his fists, feeling as though an unseen force was gradually closing in on him, suffocating him.

Are there still adversaries within the Ling family?

He immediately thought of the Yan family in the Eastern Capital. However, they had previously ousted his grandfather, suggesting they had no further interest in him and his grandfather.

Besides them, who else could it be?

Ling Feng felt utterly lost. Despite being the heir to the Medical Saint, he knew nothing concerning the Ling family.

The Blood of Emperor coursing through his veins too remained a mystery.

Even the identities of his own parents eluded him.

However, he couldn't shake the feeling that Ling Kun's disappearance might somehow be connected to the awakening of his Eye of Emperor.

There was no logical reason, it was simply intuition!

"Ling Feng, what's the matter?" Wen Tingguang couldn't help but inquire upon seeing Ling Feng's unusually troubled expression.

"Nothing. My grandfather has already departed."

Supporting himself against the table, Ling Feng clenched his jaw tightly, feeling an inexplicable pang of pain in his heart.

"Kid, are you alright?" Wen Tingguang blinked, eyeing the wooden table. "Is there something written on it?"

"Nothing." Ling Feng took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He Immediately shattered the wooden table with a single palm strike.

The information on it can't be exposed to anyone.

Ling Feng's mind wasn't dull; on the contrary, he was quite intelligent.

Grandfather had left me with the word "escape," with multiple potential meanings that I couldn't decipher. No matter what it meant, it undeniably signaled danger.

An unknown crisis loomed, one that Grandfather had detected, that's why he wanted me to flee.

With uncertainty shrouding everything, where should I seek refuge?

Inhaling deeply, Ling Feng tightened his fist, longing for strength more intensely than ever before.

Regardless, it's only by growing stronger can I hope to overcome any crisis.

"Grandfather, please, stay safe!"

Ling Feng prayed silently in his heart; at that moment, it was all he could do.

Wen Tingguang couldn't fully grasp Ling Feng's behavior, but he guessed that Ling Feng must have received troubling news.

Letting out a light sigh, Wen Tingguang moved aside, opting not to disturb Ling Feng. In such moments, allowing him some solitude seemed the best course of action.

Ling Feng didn't dwell on his sadness for too long. Amidst the vast sea of people, there is no trace of Ling Kun to be found.

All the clues must be gathered from the latter half of The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, left by my grandfather (Ling Hanyang), at the Yan household.

Therefore, I must enhance my own strength to be able to reclaim The Profound Art of Acupuncture and Moxibustion!

As Ling Feng exited the room, he caught sight of Wen Tingguang sitting quietly nearby. He waved at him, "Brother Wen, let's go."

At that moment, Ling Feng's demeanor had regained its usual calmness and indifference.

"Weren't you planning to search for your grandfather?" Wen Tingguang quickly approached Ling Feng and spoke in a subdued tone, "If there's anything you need help with, just let your brother know."

"It's alright, In this vast world, where else could we possibly search?" Ling Feng remarked and took a deep breath. "Let's resume our journey back to the Wenxian Sect."

"Very well, it's best if you can maintain such composure," Wen Tingguang said, patting Ling Feng on the shoulder. "Let's go, that's the Ling Feng I know."

Without delay, the two continued their journey towards the Wenxian Sect. Before leaving, Ling Feng threatened the innkeeper not to tell anyone about their visit, or there would be consequences.

After receiving payment and a few stern warnings from Ling Feng, the innkeeper vowed to keep the information buried.

Observing these exchanges, Wen Tingguang couldn't shake the feeling that Ling Feng seemed even more mysterious. Nevertheless, respecting Ling Feng's silence, he refrained from probing further.

In every friendship, there are bound to be secrets, and sometimes it's best not to pry too deeply.

...

Half a day had passed, and dusk was approaching. From a distance, Wen Tingguang spotted a small village below.

"Let's rest for the night in that village ahead."

Wen Tingguang could discern that although Ling Feng appeared composed on the outside, his mind was preoccupied with thoughts of his grandfather.

Judging from Ling Feng's demeanor towards his master, Wen Tingguang knew Ling Feng was a person of deep sentiment and loyalty despite his aloof appearance.

"Sounds good," Ling Feng nodded. With their current pace, they would likely return to the Wenxian Sect by tomorrow. Tonight would be a good opportunity to rest and recharge.

Just then, a series of screams came from a distance, disturbing the tranquility of the surrounding forest as birds fled their nests.

"Hmm?"

Ling Feng and Wen Tingguang exchanged puzzled glances, both equally surprised.

At the next instant, a towering column of blazing flames erupted from the depths of the forest, with scorching heat spreading out in all directions.

Boom!

The ground shook as if a colossal entity were awakening, its immense power causing rocks to crumble and the earth to tremble violently.

Far across several mountain peaks, a monstrous creature, its entire body engulfed in raging flames, burst through the ground, stretching its massive body upright.

The creature appeared to be a towering giant from afar, standing tens of meters tall, with two horns protruding from its head and hot breath billowing from its nostrils.

"What kind of monster is that?" Ling Feng observed from a distance. The creature had a menacing visage, with a mane of red hair covering much of its body, resembling an enlarged human but with distinct differences in certain features.

Despite the considerable distance between them, Ling Feng could feel the surrounding temperature rapidly rising, causing sweat to trickle down his skin.

"It's an Earth-Fire Flame Demon!"

Wen Tingguang's eyebrows furrowed slightly as a blue light flashed around him, forming a protective shield around Ling Feng. This shield isolated Ling Feng from the intense heat, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Earth-Fire Flame Demon? Is this a type of demonic beast?" Ling Feng felt a surge of anxiety as watched the massive creature from afar.

If Wen Tingguang weren't present, Ling Feng would have undoubtedly fled.

"It's not a demonic beast, but rather a type of demon. Originally, it should have been the spirit within the earth's veins. Later, it absorbed the fiery magma from the earth's veins, gradually evolving and eventually transforming into this appearance. Judging from its current state, this flame demon should have been cultivating for thousands of years."

Wen Tingguang's expression turned solemn as he remarked, "I'm afraid I might not be able to easily suppress this Earth-Fire Flame Demon."

Ling Feng's face paled at the revelation. Although he wasn't certain about the level of Wen Tingguang's cultivation, his high position in the Cangqiong Sect indicated formidable strength.

The level of terror posed by a creature even Wen Tingguang couldn't confidently deal with was beyond imagination.

"Since we've encountered this evil being, there's no reason to stand idly by."

Wen Tingguang narrowed his eyes and fixed on the distant Earth-Fire Flame Demon. He spoke in a low voice, "Ling Feng, we're not far from the Wenxian Sect. Go back on your own. Let me deal with this Earth-Fire Flame Demon first!"

Between the realm of humans and demons, there existed an eternal conflict. When high-level demons encroached upon human territories, it was the duty of all cultivators to eliminate them.

As an elder of the Cangqiong Sect, Wen Tingguang couldn't afford to retreat.

Without awaiting Ling Feng's response, Wen Tingguang swiftly darted towards the Earth-Fire Flame Demon's, leaving Ling Feng with only a solitary silhouette.
