The masked man kept a certain distance from Han Feng, his eyes filled with vigilance as he looked at him.

"You noticed I was following you not long ago?"

The masked man's voice was deep and rough, completely different from Li Changsheng's.

“Master, there’s no need to pretend anymore. I know it’s you.”

Li Changsheng had changed his voice and appearance, but Han Feng recognized him at a glance.

"I don't know what you're talking about?" Li Changsheng continued to deny it.

"Perhaps Master felt that killing me with my true face would be condemned by others, or that letting me know the truth would tarnish your image in my mind." Han Feng smiled.

"Since you already know, I'm too lazy to hide it anymore."

Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, Li Changsheng restored his original voice.

His physique also changed, from tall to medium size.

Li Changsheng removed his mask: "No wonder you were able to obtain such a great opportunity. In terms of intelligence, you surpass any of my other disciples."

"Your move just now was very sudden. If I hadn't reacted quickly enough, I might have died at your hands."

"You are truly my most outstanding disciple! In just five years, you have broken through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Core Formation stage. This talent is unparalleled."

"I know your aptitude. Your cultivation has broken through so quickly. You must have obtained some great opportunity. I don't know when you also acquired two magic treasures."

"Is Master praising me or belittling me?" Han Feng asked with a smile.

"I think so. I'll give you a chance now. As long as you hand over the opportunity you have, I'll spare your life out of consideration for our master-disciple relationship."

"Master, do you even believe what you're saying?"

Han Feng definitely won't fall for it.

Not to mention that his life simulator cannot provide that.

Even if he really gave it to Li Changsheng, he would never let Han Feng go.

"I'm serious. As long as you give me this opportunity, I'll help you break through to the Nascent Soul stage once I do. When the Yellow Maple Valley Ancestor dies, Yellow Maple Valley will be mine. As my disciple, you'll naturally reap the benefits." Li Changsheng began to make grand promises.

“Master, you don’t need to give me the pancake. If I give you this opportunity, I will still die.”

Han Feng used to be a company employee on Blue Star, and his boss was a master of making empty promises.

They keep telling you that as long as you work hard, you can buy a house and a car, but in the end, you're the one who buys the house and the car.

Li Changsheng's empty promises were just like his old boss's, so Han Feng didn't believe a single word of it.

"Don't you want to reconsider? Your cultivation has broken through to the early stage of Core Formation, but I've been in the middle stage of Core Formation for quite some time now, and I'm almost at the threshold of the late stage. You're no match for me at all."

“Master, you are right, but I prefer to take my life into my own hands.”

Han Feng forcefully opened his palm, and five beams of light shot towards Li Changsheng.

After a flash of light, Li Changsheng had already flown away from where he stood.

"You actually have a puppet at the early stage of Core Formation."

Li Changsheng's face darkened.

He reacted very quickly, but his clothes were still torn in a large patch, making him look quite disheveled.

"This child must not be allowed to live!"

Li Changsheng looked wary.

Han Feng has too many tricks up his sleeve. He not only possesses two low-grade magic treasures, but also a puppet in the early stage of Core Formation.

Li Changsheng had been in the Core Formation stage for a long time, and he only possessed two magic treasures, including the one he had recently used to kill Song Ruohe.

Both of these magical treasures were obtained by risking one's life and paying a high price.

Han Feng, who has only broken through to the early stage of Core Formation, already possesses three such treasures.

Similarly, Li Changsheng's eyes revealed greed; he believed that after killing Han Feng, he could take Han Feng's place and obtain a great opportunity.

Not to mention the Nascent Soul stage, even the Deity Transformation stage might not be impossible.

He manipulated the magical artifact behind him, which suddenly emerged from its scabbard.

Like Han Feng's Azure Cloud Sword, this sword is also entirely azure in color and is called the "Azure Profound Sword".

The Azure Profound Sword emitted a series of sword cries as it hurtled towards Han Feng's chest.

The golden shield protecting Han Feng emitted a dazzling golden light, blocking the attack of the Azure Profound Sword.

The Azure Sword refused to give up and once again headed towards the Golden Shield.

The golden shield was struck again, emitting a dazzling golden light.

However, as the Azure Profound Sword continued to strike, the golden shield dimmed, as if it were about to break free from Han Feng's control.

This was within Han Feng's expectations, as his cultivation level and magical power were inferior to Li Changsheng's.

Furthermore, given that the Azure Profound Sword is a mid-grade magic weapon, it's quite normal that a Golden Light Shield couldn't block it.

Han Feng had no choice but to wield the Azure Cloud Sword to fight alongside the Golden Shield.

That was how they barely managed to block the attack from the Azure Profound Sword.

The three magical weapons were locked in combat, and Han Feng took the lead by wielding the Azure Cloud Sword Technique.

Now that he has cultivated the Azure Cloud Sword Technique to the late Foundation Establishment stage, the power of his wooden sword energy far surpasses what it was before.

"Your Azure Cloud Sword Technique is far inferior to mine. In your final moments, I will give you a proper demonstration."

A mocking smile appeared on Li Changsheng's lips.

"I hope that when you reach the underworld, you can truly understand the last things your teacher taught you."

This Azure Origin Sword Technique comes from the Azure Origin Sword Manual, which he obtained after destroying a small sect.

Back then, Huangfeng Valley offered sect contribution points as a reward for submitting cultivation techniques in order to ensure that the Transmission Hall had enough techniques.

In order to gain sect contribution points, Li Changsheng donated his acquired cultivation techniques to the Transmission Hall.

This included the Azure Origin Sword Manual, which he cultivated himself. However, he only left behind the cultivation method for the late Foundation Establishment stage, and did not leave behind anything for the Core Formation stage and above.

This is why Han Feng could only cultivate the Azure Origin Sword Technique to the late Foundation Establishment stage.

With a loud "boom".

The two wooden sword energies collided with each other, producing a loud sound.

Li Changsheng's sword energy was significantly thicker and stronger, surpassing Han Feng's wooden sword energy.

The wooden sword energy was extremely fast, heading towards Han Feng.

Han Feng quickly dodged and manipulated the early-stage Core Formation girl puppet to fire more than a dozen beams of light towards Li Changsheng's location.

The combined power of more than a dozen beams of light was comparable to a full-force attack from an early-stage Core Formation cultivator.

Li Changsheng dared not stay in place to take the hit head-on, and quickly dodged away from more than a dozen beams of light.

The area struck by the dozen or so beams of light was instantly reduced to ruins.

Li Changsheng's cultivation and strength far surpassed Han Feng's.

With the help of a puppet in the early stage of Core Formation, Han Feng barely managed to remain undefeated.

"I never thought I could be so naive. When will your strength reach a point where you can compete with me?"

Li Changsheng had gained the upper hand, and his apprehension grew stronger.

He had cultivated for hundreds of years, yet he couldn't kill the disciple in front of him who had only cultivated for a dozen years in one go.

"It must be killed, otherwise it will become a major threat in the future."

He didn't want to delay any longer, because even if he killed Han Feng, his Dao heart would be damaged.

"Sword, come!"

Li Changsheng silently chanted an incantation, trying to quickly recall the Azure Profound Sword.

He wanted to unleash the full power of the Azure Origin Sword Technique through the Azure Profound Sword.

This will allow us to kill Han Feng in one fell swoop!
