The vines seemed to be alive, layer upon layer, endless. As soon as they were cut down, they would grow back. Liu Feng's wind blades were all blocked by the vines, and he couldn't get close to Ying Xun at all.

"What kind of vine is this?" Something feels a bit eerie.

"A branch of the Immortal Vine." A weak voice came from the system in my mind, followed by a piercing scream.

"How is this possible? This is impossible. I don't believe it. How could such a heaven-defying vine appear on this kid? The Vine of Immortality disappeared many years ago."

"You said this thing disappeared many years ago."

"In the Holy War tens of thousands of years ago, the Vine of Immortality was destroyed, and since then, there has been no trace of the Vine of Immortality in the Upper Realm. How could it appear on Yingxun?"

"This matter must not be spread."

"Tch, how many people do you think would recognize this as the legendary, long-lost Vine of Immortality? At most, they would just think of it as an ordinary vine."

"It is always best to be cautious in everything."

The system remained silent.

The battle between Yingxun and Liufeng continued. Liufeng was very fast and could hide his figure in the air. The speed of his sword was also incredibly fast, making it impossible to defend against.

Liu Feng's spiritual root, his speed, and his sword, when combined, create an absolutely terrifying killing weapon. Many people with higher levels of skill than him have been defeated by him for this very reason.

However, the person he encountered today was Yingxun, a pill refiner with astonishing mental strength, equally fast speed, and amazing defensive capabilities.

Liu Feng's sword couldn't hurt him at all; instead, he would be entangled by the Vine of Immortality.

"Just admit defeat." Ying Xun's indifferent voice rang out in the open space.

Now, it's clear to everyone that Liu Feng is being suppressed by Ying Xun and has no chance to retaliate. Moreover, the strength Ying Xun has revealed is just the tip of the iceberg; who knows if he has any bigger tricks up his sleeve?

He said this only to show respect for his opponent, but to Liu Feng, it sounded like an insult.

"You're dreaming."

Liu Feng roared, and all the wind blades behind him flew up, spinning and transforming into a giant sword, which slashed fiercely at Ying Xun.

Meanwhile, the sea hearts surrounding Yingxun suddenly coalesced into a giant sea heart, which Yingxun controlled and flew directly towards Liu Feng.

The sea and the giant sword clashed violently, sword energy crisscrossing and wind blades flying wildly. This intense collision forced Ye Xiruo, Hua Rong, and the others to retreat.

When the energy dissipated, a huge crater was left behind, a testament to the ferocity of the battle that had just taken place.

Yingxun's clothes were torn apart by countless wind blades, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

On the surface, Liu Feng showed no signs of anything amiss. He supported himself with his sword in his right hand, his back ramrod straight, and then, in the next second, he fell straight down.

"Wait, get up! You haven't admitted defeat yet? You want to just pass out, play dead, and refuse to admit it? There's no way you can get away with that so easily."

Liu Yi, who had been forgotten by everyone, simply couldn't believe that his all-powerful older brother had been so easily defeated by a mere alchemist. This couldn't be real.

"You cheated."

"What the hell? How can you be so shameless? You lost, you lost. Don't try to renege on your debt. Believe me or not, I'll beat you to death!" Ye Xiruo stomped on Liu Yi's back, and Liu Yi immediately let out a scream.

"Shut up. Your brother, whom you've waited so long for, has finally arrived, and then what?"

Liu Yi was about to cry; what kind of monster had he provoked?

"You'd better let me go right now, or my father won't let you get away with this."

"Hehe, so you have a father. I just wonder if it would be against the sect's rules for an elder to beat up a junior disciple like this."

Ye Xiruo picked at her ears, not worried at all.

"You—" Liu Yi rolled her eyes, finally unable to bear the shock, and fainted.

"It's already collapsed, how utterly useless."

"Who dares to hurt my son?" A furious roar came from mid-air, and then a middle-aged man with gray hair dressed in a gray robe floated down from mid-air.

A pair of eagle eyes brazenly scrutinized Ye Xiruo, Ying Xun, and the others.

"Please, uncle, are you blind? Your son brought so many people to attack us, but unfortunately, he was outmatched and ended up like this. Who can you blame?"

Who are you?

“Lingyun Peak Night Like”

Liu Yun pondered for a moment. Lingyun Peak—wasn't that Xue Junhan's territory? He hadn't heard of Xue Junhan taking on any disciples. This girl was probably a menial outer disciple making a living on Lingyun Peak, and now she was using Lingyun Peak's name to try and make him back off.

"You're the one who hurt my son."

“It’s me,” Yingxun said calmly.

"And who are you?"

"Just an unknown nobody, not worth mentioning."

"presumptuous."

"Elder Liu, I advise you to take your son and leave here immediately, and apologize to Chi Yi. I can let them go."

"presumptuous."

"You keep repeating the same thing over and over again. Don't you have any other words to use? Everyone knows the truth of the matter. Even if you kill me, you can't change that fact."

"Then I'll kill you."

Liu Yun was almost driven mad by Ye Xiruo. This girl was spouting nonsense and attacking the elders. Even if he had to take action, he would still have to answer to the sect.

"Oh no, this guy is about to make a move."

"Don't worry, I will protect you."

The sea in Yingxun's hand shimmered with light, and a mesmerizing blue hue continuously emanated from the heart of the sea, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

Ye Xiruo then conjured four spiked clubs in one go, attacking Liu Yun from all directions.

"Strike first, strike hard"—this saying is always true. Ye Xiruo had already anticipated this scene. It seems there's a reason why Liu Yi is so shameless; with such a shameless father, it's truly a case of "like father, like son."

As an elder in the early stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, Liu Yun's spiritual power was naturally not weak, and his perception was also first-class. He dodged Ye Xiruo's two spiked clubs with a flash, but two more clubs still hit his spiritual sea solidly.

A sharp pain suddenly shot through his mind. Liu Yun was stunned for a moment, and the other two spiked clubs fell into his sea of ​​consciousness, churning violently.

"What are we waiting for? Let's strike while the iron is hot and take his life."

Since this old man is already so shameless as to attack their juniors, why bother with any chivalrous code? Let's all attack together and kill this arrogant, conceited, and unreasonable old man.

A ball of blue flame suddenly rose from Yingxun's sea of ​​consciousness and was thrown directly at Liu Yun.
