"Now you realize how powerful I am, but it's too late."
Lin Xiaofei sneered.
The instant Zhou Qing prepared to escape, he anticipated this and unleashed a fire spell. The flames descended, blocking Zhou Qing's path.
He knew that Zhou Qing was a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and given that the other party had been cultivating for much longer than him, he must have many tricks up his sleeve. If the other party escaped, it would be a hidden danger.
At the same time, Lin Xiaofei reached out and grabbed a large amount of herbs from the spatial bead, stuffed them into his mouth, and they turned into a stream of herbal juice that flowed into his abdomen.
The Hundred-Meter Flying Vine Technique began to operate at high speed within his body, as if he had undergone thousands of days and nights of cultivation, and suddenly accelerated to the point of perfection.
In an instant, Lin Xiaofei felt that the operation of the Hundred-Meter Flying Vine Technique was running exceptionally smoothly within his body.
Fortunately, during this time, he cultivated the Hundred-Meter Flying Vine Technique to the beginner level. Originally, he wanted to wait for the herbs in the Space Bead to grow for a few more days until they were fully mature before consuming them.
However, he was in a hurry and needed to use this spell.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Xiaofei stretched out his left hand, condensed a hundred-meter-long flying vine technique, which transformed into a huge green vine that was a hundred meters long, and threw it out.
At the same time, he conjured a white flame spell with his other hand and hurled it at Zhou Qing.
Immediately afterwards, a green vine, moving with incredible speed, entered Zhou Qing's body and wrapped around him completely.
Whoosh!
"Let me go."
A panicked cry rang out.
The green vines, like extremely hard iron chains, tightly bound Zhou Qing's body, rendering his hands and feet immobile, causing him to fall to the ground.
The more he struggled, the tighter the hundred-meter-long vines wrapped around him.
"The Hundred-Meter Flying Vine Technique is perfect for chasing and entangled fleeing people."
I cultivated it to perfection, so I could release it instantly, ensnaring Zhou Qing before he could even cast a spell to defend himself.
Moreover, this hundred-meter-long vine would last for at least a minute, and given its exceptional toughness, he simply couldn't break free with his physical strength.
Upon seeing this, a thought flashed through Lin Xiaofei's mind.
boom!
In the void, a raging flame crackled and burned once more.
Flames rolled.
boom!
Seven or eight flames, like meteors falling from the sky, descended upon the land.
Zhou Qing, who was struggling on the ground, suddenly felt the aura of death. He quickly turned his head to look at the descending flames, his eyes filled with terror and his face changed drastically.
In an instant, seven or eight flames slammed down on him.
"ah!"
The flames landed on him, quickly spreading throughout his body. The raging flames completely enveloped him. He screamed, then fell silent, leaving only the burning flames.
Soon, the flames completely burned Zhou Qing's body to ashes.
"Finally dead, that can be considered revenge for Old Jiang."
With a low voice, Lin Xiaofei noticed that Zhou Qing's body had been burned to ashes, but his storage bag didn't seem to be completely destroyed. He quickly went over, picked it up, and put it into his spatial bead.
“Come quickly and look! In that alley, there is a boy and the ashes of a corpse.”
Suddenly, several ordinary people appeared at the alley entrance, looked in the direction of Lin Xiaofei, pointed at a set of ashes, and exclaimed in surprise.
Without hesitation, Lin Xiaofei sped towards the depths of the alley, not wanting to attract the attention of people in the city.
"Apart from the magical artifacts that can withstand high temperatures and some spiritual minerals, everything else in the storage bag was melted by the extremely high temperature of the flames."
It's a real shame that some elixirs and a book were destroyed.
However, it seems there are still some usable items among them.
Lin Xiaofei sat cross-legged inside the spatial bead, cooled down the storage bag, and then poured out all the contents. He found that most of the items had turned into charcoal, and then counted them one by one.
Anything that melted into ash by the heat was thrown onto the black soil as nourishment for the earth.
Looking at the large pile of things in front of him, a large black, charred wooden box soon appeared in front of Lin Xiaofei, which he casually slapped at.
The charred box shattered into pieces.
Suddenly, something resembling a large rock appeared inside.
This large rock is an irregular oval shape, light red in color, and about two meters thick.
"Fire Crystal Iron Stone".
A glint of surprise flashed in Lin Xiaofei's eyes.
Fire Crystal Iron Stone is a fire-attribute mineral that can be used to forge weapons. For cultivators, this stone, when combined with other spiritual minerals, can be used to forge fire-attribute magical artifacts.
With a joyful expression, he quickly picked up the Fire Crystal Iron Stone with both hands and immediately felt a heavy weight, estimating that the Fire Crystal Iron Stone weighed more than 1,800 jin.
An ordinary person would not be able to move this piece of fire crystal iron stone.
After admiring the Fire Crystal Iron Stone for a moment, he enveloped it with his spiritual power and instantly stored it in the storage bag at his waist.
Next, they found a large amount of melted gold and silver jewelry. Lin Xiaofei no longer cared about these, since cultivators rarely use gold and silver.
"The biggest gains this time were a piece of fire crystal iron weighing over 1,800 jin and a high-grade magic weapon, the Red Dust Sword, with 69 artifact patterns."
Lin Xiaofei took stock of everything before remarking with emotion.
Besides the Red Dust Sword, he also possesses the Small Bronze Bell and the Green Vine Sword, which are currently his most powerful magical artifacts.
As for the fire crystal iron stone, he doesn't need it right now, so he'll put it aside for the time being.
"However, although I killed Zhou Qing, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, it was because Zhou Qing was already injured. If he were at his peak and had tried to escape with all his might, I probably wouldn't have been able to kill him."
It seems I still need to speed up my training so that in the future, when I encounter similar situations, I can strive to kill with a single blow, leaving the opponent no chance to escape.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiaofei looked at the herbs planted in the space bead, sighed again, and muttered to himself:
The herbs are growing too slowly.
After thinking for a while, he cast a minor spiritual rain spell, and the herbs in the spatial bead received another nourishment, growing even more luxuriantly.
Without hesitation, he plucked all the mature herbs and stuffed them directly into his mouth, deciding to accelerate his cultivation.
He knew that for a cultivator like Zhou Qing to kill someone in one blow, he would have to raise his immortal cultivation level.
In an instant, a large amount of heat surged within his body, and the Dew True God Technique began to operate at high speed, as if it had been operated thousands of times in a very short period of time.
The spiritual energy within his dantian rapidly increased, surging and rushing like a raging flood.
At this moment, the concentration of spiritual energy in his body was three times that of before.
"He has reached the peak of the eighth level of Qi Refining."
Lin Xiaofei felt the concentration of spiritual energy within his body and was overjoyed. He then picked some more mature herbs.
