Chapter 85: Coming out of the mountain, suppressing the enemy, but being weaker than I expected!

Luo Li was silent. Now, even if she wanted to stop him, she couldn't.

Her Junior Brother was truly a Prodigy to the point of despair!

Unknowingly, how did he suddenly surpass her?

With absolute suppression in terms of power, to what extent was Li Xuanfeng's Physical Body strong?

"Junior Brother, I won't stop you anymore, and… you're hurting my hand!"

Luo Li sighed.

Only then did Li Xuanfeng release her wrist.

"I'll go with you."

Luo Li gently rubbed her wrist; her Junior Brother's strength was truly immense.

"That's not necessary. You can just wait here for news."

Li Xuanfeng's goal was to destroy the Ku Xuan Sect. There might be ambushes targeting him along the way. He could come and go freely alone, but bringing Luo Li would only be a hindrance.

With the help of the System, he could see Luo Li enveloped in golden light, indicating no danger, but it was still not as convenient as Li Xuanfeng acting alone.

"And the Peak Lords, don't hide anymore. You all should stay and guard Hundred Sword Mountain. What if the Blood Fiend Gate suddenly attacks and there's no one to manage the mountain-guarding formation?"

Li Xuanfeng looked into the Void Realm.

"Li Zhenchuan's perception is truly keen!"

The seemingly empty Void Realm suddenly rippled, and three figures emerged, who were precisely three of the Peak Lords.

"Given the current situation, Li Zhenchuan understands the dangers of the outside world, so there's no need for us to say more. Even if you have trump cards, there's still a risk of falling."

The Peak Lord of Sword Burying Peak said sternly.

"If Li Zhenchuan wishes to leave the Sect, there will be an opportunity soon. The barrier of the King's Fall Land has begun to loosen, and various forces will rush in at that time."

"If the Sect war doesn't start, the Blood Fiend Gate will certainly not miss the opportunity to enter the King's Fall Land. Our Hundred Sword Mountain will also lead people there. With our protection at that time, Li Zhenchuan can clash with their Disciples in the King's Fall Land and vent his anger!"

The Peak Lord of Sword Intercepting Peak spoke.

"Li Zhenchuan doesn't need to take risks at this time."

The Peak Lord of Sword Embroidering Peak also looked over.

The meaning of the three was very clear: they wanted Li Xuanfeng to stay within the Sect.

As a Prodigy of Hundred Sword Mountain, and even more so as the Sect Master's Personal Disciple, they couldn't allow Li Xuanfeng to go out and take risks. If he insisted on leaving the Sect, the Peak Lords could only forcibly stop him.

Li Xuanfeng didn't speak, but instead opened his palm, and a silver-white miniature pagoda appeared.

Buzz!

Strands of fluctuations emanated from the miniature pagoda, and the surrounding space distorted.

"This…"

The three Peak Lords' pupils constricted as they stared intently at the silver-white miniature pagoda.

From this miniature pagoda, they felt an extremely strong threat.

"Li Zhenchuan, you…"

The three simultaneously looked at Li Xuanfeng, and Luo Li also looked at him with a face full of surprise.

Li Xuanfeng actually possessed such a treasure?

Such astonishing power must mean it was a ninth-tier Spiritual Artifact!

Even if it couldn't be fully activated, it was still extremely threatening to them. If it could be fully activated, killing them would not be difficult.

As expected of a Prodigy beyond common sense, to obtain such a treasure, he must also have great Luck accompanying him!

A Prodigy isn't scary, as a Prodigy might die young, but a Prodigy with great Luck is different.

This was a fated person destined to rise; the more they suppressed him, the faster he would rise!

Li Xuanfeng himself was incredibly prodigious, and now it could be confirmed that he had great Luck accompanying him. They dared not imagine how terrifying his future achievements would be.

Since Li Xuanfeng could produce such a treasure, Luo Li and the three Peak Lords had already automatically imagined that he had obtained a Heaven-Defying Legacy, and the silver miniature pagoda was part of that Legacy.

No wonder he could improve so rapidly!

With this pagoda, there were only a few people in the Great Yan Dynasty who could threaten Li Xuanfeng.

"I won't be foolish enough to charge into the Blood Fiend Gate's lair, so everyone doesn't need to worry!"

Li Xuanfeng flipped his hand, putting away the Zhenshan Pagoda.

He glanced at Luo Li and the three Peak Lords, then shot through the air with a whoosh.

This time, he was no longer obstructed.

The three Peak Lords exchanged glances, only able to smile helplessly.

Worry about a Prodigy with great Luck?

They might as well worry about themselves!

People like Li Xuanfeng would surely turn danger into fortune. Perhaps even without him, Hundred Sword Mountain would still be carefree. It was they who were overly concerned.

The key was, with this pagoda in hand, they couldn't stop Li Xuanfeng even if they wanted to… Whoosh!

Li Xuanfeng soared through the air.

After reading the intelligence provided by the Affairs Hall Elder, Li Xuanfeng had two things he decided to do this time: eliminate the Ku Xuan Sect and the True Disciple of the Blood Fiend Gate who had been clamoring.

A Personal Disciple of the Blood Fiend Gate's Sect Master named He Shang had publicly issued a verbal challenge to Li Xuanfeng during this period.

He claimed that Li Xuanfeng was seeking fame and fishing for praise, and was merely an ordinary Genius who created the illusion of being a peerless Prodigy.

He Shang expressed strong doubts. He had already set up an arena and wanted to fight Li Xuanfeng fairly.

If Li Xuanfeng had the guts, he should come and accept the challenge to dispel the doubts. If he didn't dare, it would prove that he was indeed a cowardly rat seeking fame and fearing trouble, unworthy of the title "Prodigy."

He Shang uttered many harsh words, and many Disciples, at his instigation, continuously slandered Li Xuanfeng.

As a month passed without Li Xuanfeng responding, the slandering voices grew louder.

Upon learning of this, He Shang had already been added to Li Xuanfeng's kill list.

"The place where He Shang set up the arena definitely has an ambush, but that doesn't mean the ambush is only in that one spot!"

Li Xuanfeng thought to himself.

Checking the color of fate through the System was his reliance. As long as the Light of Chaos enveloped him, he wouldn't have to worry about danger.

Like a rainbow, he streaked across the sky, maintaining a normal speed.

The journey was quiet, and he was getting further and further away from Hundred Sword Mountain.

Neither the Ku Xuan Sect nor the Blood Fiend Gate, even if they wanted to investigate Li Xuanfeng's movements, could get too close to Hundred Sword Mountain.

Few Cultivators would be bold enough to approach an enemy's lair.

"Hmm?"

After an unknown period, Li Xuanfeng, who was flying, suddenly felt a sense of alert. He vaguely felt that something was secretly peeking at him.

"Are they here?"

Li Xuanfeng thought to himself.

The "Precognition" from the Soul Three Arts was showing initial results.

"Their concealment methods are quite good."

Li Xuanfeng continued to fly at his original speed while secretly observing, but he couldn't find the source of that gaze.

Clearly, the opponent's stealth techniques were quite superb, most likely professional assassins.

The Dao of Cultivation was diverse: some practiced swords, others spears, blades, or staves… Some focused on Body Refining, some specialized in escape techniques, some focused on defense, and some primarily wielded offense!

And assassins were those who specialized in refining offensive techniques and stealth techniques, aiming for an instant kill against their enemies!

Such Cultivators were extremely dangerous, and it was easiest for them to achieve Heaven-Defying feats of low Realm Cultivators defeating high Realm Cultivators.

Many examples of instant-killing Cultivators of the same Realm came from assassins.

"No, it doesn't feel like just one person!"

The Soul Three Arts sent several alerts to Li Xuanfeng.

He had roughly determined the direction: about a hundred kilometers away, along his path, perhaps two people were waiting to deliver a fatal blow to him.

That area was filled with overlapping mountains, with mist shrouding the peaks, concealing murderous intent in the Void Realm.

When Li Xuanfeng flew over the mountain range, his Soul sent a strong premonition of danger.

Buzz!

At the same time, the Void Realm vibrated, and two Soul attacks came from the left and right, flanking him.

Before the Soul attacks could even reach Li Xuanfeng, two longsword attacks carrying astonishing penetrating Sword Intent followed closely, aimed at Li Xuanfeng's head.

The space was directly torn open into two pitch-black cracks!

The silver miniature pagoda appeared out of thin air, instantly expanding, blocking all attacks from one side and suppressing them.

On the other side, Li Xuanfeng's Divine Sense condensed secret technique runes, transforming into an invisible shield, blocking the opponent's Soul attack.

Chaotic Sword Intent entwined around the Xin Tian Sword, and Star Draws a Line cut through space, shattering all of the opponent's attacks and tearing a black-robed figure hidden in the Void Realm into two.

"What?!"

A startled voice echoed.

One assassin was suppressed by the Zhenshan Pagoda, unable to move, while the other assassin directly abandoned his Physical Body, his Soul Emergence attempting to escape.

But the Zhenshan Pagoda continued to enlarge, instantly sucking that Soul into one of its pagoda gates.

Buzz!

Li Xuanfeng pressed down with a large hand, and the Zhenshan Pagoda erupted with terrifying power, crushing the other assassin's Physical Body into powder, leaving only an illusory Soul.

Whoosh!

This Soul was also sucked into the pagoda.

The Zhenshan Pagoda rapidly shrunk, flying back into Li Xuanfeng's palm, where it quietly floated.

Everything happened in an instant, not even enough time to form a single thought.

"Impossible?!"

"You couldn't even react to such an attack, how could you avoid it!"

Inside the Zhenshan Pagoda, the Souls of the two assassins emitted incredulous Divine Sense fluctuations.

The pagoda contained its own space. They were bound inside, unable to do anything. Their Souls were suppressed by a powerful force. Through the pagoda gates, they saw Li Xuanfeng, who looked like a giant.

"Are these the assassins arranged by the Ku Xuan Sect and the Blood Fiend Gate? I must say, they're weaker than I expected!"

Li Xuanfeng looked at the two Soul bodies and said indifferently.

The expressions of the two Soul bodies changed, feeling greatly insulted.

But in the face of facts, they couldn't refute it!

Both of these individuals were Cultivators at the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm.

Their defensive power might not be strong, but their offensive techniques were definitely top-tier among their peers!

According to their assassination plan, they would first attack Li Xuanfeng with Soul attacks. Regardless of whether the Soul attacks could kill Li Xuanfeng, they would follow up with a finishing blow.

Even if Li Xuanfeng miraculously survived the Soul attack, it would be enough to cause him a brief moment of daze and stupor. In that short moment, he would definitely not have time to use his trump cards.

Their subsequent attacks could completely tear him apart!

They had used this move to kill many people, and it was common for Cultivators of the same Realm to be instantly killed by them when caught off guard!

But when Li Xuanfeng made his move just now, both of them discovered a shocking fact: Li Xuanfeng was at the ninth level of the Shattered Core Realm!

His strength was even greater than rumored!

Not to mention this terrifying pagoda-shaped Spiritual Artifact, Li Xuanfeng's own power alone was completely comparable to a ninth-level Divine Transformation Realm Cultivator!

If any other Divine Transformation Realm Cultivator were here, they would probably have fallen into their trap.

Unfortunately, they encountered Li Xuanfeng.

Li Xuanfeng was too prodigious and too powerful, making their assassination attempt seem as absurd and ridiculous as child's play!

"Why don't you kill us?"

After their shock, the two Soul bodies remembered their predicament.

They were trapped inside the pagoda, with the pagoda gates right before their eyes yet unable to leave. Their Souls were suppressed by a powerful force, rendering them helpless.

"I'm preparing for you to witness a grand Sect-destroying battle!"

Li Xuanfeng smiled faintly.

Then, without bothering with the two Soul bodies' astonishment, he flipped his hand and put away the Zhenshan Pagoda.

Not killing these two was naturally not due to a sudden surge of sympathy from Li Xuanfeng, but rather to prevent the Ku Xuan Sect and the Blood Fiend Gate from discovering their assassination failure.

If the two died, the other party would surely notice, which would be detrimental to Li Xuanfeng's subsequent actions.

As long as their Souls remained intact, the Ku Xuan Sect and the Blood Fiend Gate would not detect any abnormality, and at the same time, the two would not be able to transmit messages via communication stones.

"It's time to take He Shang's dog life!"

Li Xuanfeng shot through the air.
