"What?"
Standing a kilometer away, Zhao Zhong was startled and his expression changed drastically.
Chen Jing and Wu Qingzhang are both dead.
These two are both cultivators at the early stage of the ninth level of Qi Refining. Even in front of someone at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining, they shouldn't have been defeated so quickly.
In less than three breaths, the two men were killed by Lin Xiaofei.
At this moment, he knew that Lin Xiaofei's strength had definitely reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Previously, he thought Lin Xiaofei was just a teenager, and that having the strength of the early stage of the ninth level of Qi Refining was the highest affirmation he could give Lin Xiaofei.
Unexpectedly, two of the three cultivators were killed before they could even get close to Lin Xiaofei, which shocked him greatly.
He understood that he was no match for Lin Xiaofei.
Without hesitation, Zhao Zhong turned and ran away, his legs moving like wheels of fire as he sprinted with all his might.
After he had run for two or three miles, he turned around and saw that Lin Xiaofei's speed was like a gust of wind, and he was only more than 500 meters away from catching up with him.
Immediately, Zhao Zhong felt a pang of regret.
Once Lin Xiaofei catches up with them, they will surely die.
He originally planned to have Chen Jing and Wu Qingzhang go out of the city to hunt down Lin Xiaofei, but in order to get the Water Insect Crystal Grass as soon as possible, he followed along.
"Lin Xiaofei, for the sake of the Second Young Master and the Zhao family, let me leave."
Zhao Zhong shouted, no longer caring about his reputation, and ran away while begging for mercy.
"The moment you attacked and tried to kill me, it was your death day. How could I possibly let you leave?"
With a cold snort, seeing the distance getting closer, Lin Xiaofei no longer hesitated. He waved his hand, and a streak of azure light shot out at lightning speed, heading towards Zhao Zhong.
Suddenly, Zhao Zhong was overjoyed. He saw an old man's figure flying towards him.
This old man was none other than his father, Zhao Wuzhi.
"Father, save me!"
"Young friend Lin, please show mercy!"
Zhao Wuzhi's expression changed slightly. He shouted and quickly waved his hand, throwing out a long sword-shaped magical weapon.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaofei raised an eyebrow and waved his hand again, manipulating the speed of the Green Vine Sword to increase once more.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The Green Vine Sword emitted a series of trembling sounds, as if it were about to tear apart the void.
The speed at which the Green Vine Sword flew continued to increase.
At the same time, Zhao Wuzhi released flying knives that flowed like a waterfall, cascading down for miles, their blades radiating in all directions, ready to shield Zhao Zhong from the Green Vine Sword.
Whoosh!
The speed of the Green Vine Sword was as swift as a startled swan, even faster than the flying knife magic weapon, and it arrived in front of Zhao Zhong first.
In the blink of an eye, a streak of green light flashed across Zhao Zhong's body.
"ah!"
Zhao Zhong screamed in agony, feeling a sharp pain as his body was cleaved in two by the Green Vine Sword. He was thrown to the ground, blood gushing out. He howled a few times before falling silent.
Immediately, the longsword magic weapon missed its target and did not collide with the Green Vine Sword.
"My son!"
Zhao Wuzhi was stunned at first, then his expression changed drastically. He rushed over and quickly landed beside Zhao Zhong. He squatted down, looked at his son's body, and felt extremely pained.
His only son died just like that.
In a daze, he felt as if he had lost everything. A fierce resolve hardened within him, and he turned to look at Lin Xiaofei not far away, shouting with a ferocious expression:
I want you dead!
From the moment Lin Xiaofei made his move, he realized that Lin Xiaofei was no ordinary person, but he did not expect that the speed at which the other party used his magic weapon was even faster than his own. He was unable to resist the Green Vine Sword, which resulted in the death of his son.
Although he could sense Lin Xiaofei's power, he couldn't accept his son's death for a while. With his enemy right in front of him, he had to avenge Zhao Zhong.
Without hesitation, he recalled his longsword magic weapon, and his spiritual energy surged, causing the longsword magic weapon to shine brightly and be activated.
"snort!"
Lin Xiaofei snorted coldly and said nothing more, knowing that this matter was not over yet.
He stood there, silently channeling the spiritual energy within his body, and a palm-sized golden seal appeared before his eyes. He then suddenly activated it.
In an instant, the golden seal transformed into the size of a residential building, and with an overwhelming force, it crashed down.
boom!
The flying knife magic weapon collided with the golden seal, producing a loud boom that echoed throughout the entire mountain forest.
In an instant, the flying knife shattered and crashed to the ground.
A look of horror flashed across Zhao Wuzhi's eyes. Just as he was about to make another move, the golden seal continued its momentum and engulfed him completely.
boom!
The golden seal slammed Zhao Wuzhi hard into the ground.
The ground shook as if a mountain had collapsed and the earth had split open. Whether it was tall trees or hard rocks, they were all easily pressed into the ground as if they were pieces of tofu.
Lin Xiaofei recalled the golden seal, and saw a pit seven or eight zhang deep in the ground not far away, surrounded by a mess.
Zhao Wuzhi's body was frozen in the mud, turned into a pile of flesh, and his blood stained the soil red.
"Master Zhao is dead?"
One of Zhao Wuzhi's attendants, who had come with him, looked surprised and was horrified.
Master Zhao possessed the strength of the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining, placing him among the top twenty in Shifeng County. Yet, he was killed head-on by a young man, leading him to believe that Lin Xiaofei was a cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
Not daring to linger, they turned and fled.
Lin Xiaofei glanced around and saw the man flee. He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not make a move, since the man had not attacked him.
Lin Xiaofei glanced at Zhao Wuzhi's corpse and thought to himself:
If my estimation is correct, I can now easily crush a peak ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator.
In his current state, he felt as if he possessed overwhelming power, as if he had the strength of a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the early stages.
After hesitating for a moment, he quickly cleaned up the mess.
"I was planning to go to other places to look for the Five Elements Spirit Herbs, but I didn't expect that there would be a mature One Yuan Flame Tail Grass in this storage bag."
In this way, I planted it inside the space bead, and I estimate that it will soon produce seeds, allowing me to plant it in large quantities.
"Then, I only need two types of spiritual herbs left to refine the Breakthrough Pill."
After looting the corpse, Lin Xiaofei took out a storage bag, looked at its contents, smiled slightly, and muttered to himself.
Looking at the One Yuan Flame Tail Grass in his hand, he sensed a trace of fire attribute aura. This was the third spiritual herb he possessed, which made him overjoyed.
This spiritual herb was obtained from the storage bag of a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Although he didn't know why these people were chasing him, he would not show mercy to anyone who wanted to cause him trouble.
Of course, he would also take the items from the other person's storage bag without hesitation.
"In this storage bag, besides the Yuan Flame Tail Grass which is the most valuable, the rest are four or five high-level magic artifacts and some spirit stones."
Although I have no use for these magical artifacts, selling them would bring in a considerable sum of money.
Lin Xiaofei then took stock of the contents of the storage bag.
