Zhang Fan remained calm and composed: "When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it!"
Looking at Zhang Fan's calm demeanor, Chi Fei felt a little less flustered. It seemed that Zhang Fan had always been like this, always calm and composed no matter what happened.
That kind of control over everything is truly captivating.
The two followed behind, heading up the mountain with the group.
At the top of the mountain stands an ancient building with the three characters "Tianlongmen" inscribed on its heavy vermilion gate.
Peeking in from behind the door, the area behind it resembled an ancient palace, with a spacious area in the center where about four or five hundred people were standing.
A boy who looked like a middle school student stood in the middle and spoke. In Zhang Fan's eyes, the boy was emanating black energy, so it seemed that the boy was Zhen Xing.
Zhen Xing: "I have regained my powers. Now we can finally carry out the rules of the church, destroy this foolish world, and rebuild a completely new one!"
"destroy!"
"destroy!"
The congregation raised their arms and cheered in unison.
Zhen Xing was followed by four men, all tall and burly, with uniformly sinister eyes.
These four people must be the Four Protectors.
Zhang Fan closed his eyes, sensing the four people's cultivation levels.
Of these four, three were at the eighth level of the Golden Core realm, and one, like him, was at the ninth level of the Golden Core realm.
There is also Zhen Xing, who is at the first level of the Nascent Soul stage.
No matter how you look at it, Zhang Fan is at a disadvantage.
Zhen Xing pressed his hands down: "Because of Zhang Fan, our sect suffered heavy losses, but don't worry. The fact that I was able to be resurrected this time means that even if you die, you still have a chance, and if you're lucky, you can even level up again."
Only lucky individuals like Zhang Fan can cultivate using the "Wuji Scripture." Others generally rely on hard work and gradual accumulation of cultivation to make progress, and even then, the progress is extremely slow.
Alternatively, one can use rare and precious materials to aid in cultivation, thus achieving rapid progress.
Treasures are hard to find, and elixirs that aid in cultivation require rare medicinal herbs, making them even more expensive.
Therefore, most people in the Tianlong Sect make very slow progress in their cultivation. They may cultivate for a lifetime and still be stuck in the Qi Refining stage.
Hearing that death could not only bring resurrection but also lead to a higher realm, the believers were excited and eager to try.
"If you encounter Zhang Fan, kill him without mercy!"
"Kill them without mercy!"
"Kill them without mercy!"
The believers spoke loudly, their eyes gleaming at the thought of Zhang Fan, like a starving wolf craving food.
Zhen Xing abruptly changed the subject: "Speak of the devil, and he appears!"
He turned his head toward the door and shouted, "Zhang Fan, don't you think so?"
The disciples immediately turned towards the doorway, raised their weapons, and stood ready for battle.
These weapons include swords, whips, daggers, and axes.
He slowly walked out from behind the door. Upon seeing Zhang Fan, the one with the darkest face among the four protectors said, "Zhang Fan, how come you're still alive!"
Zhang Fan gave a cold laugh: "If I die, who will collect my body?"
"Arrogant!"
Enraged, the dark-faced man swung two heavy hammers at Zhang Fan.
His level of cultivation is the same as Zhang Fan's, but there are also differences between the two.
Zhang Fan was a new cultivator, at the bottom of the ninth level of the Golden Core stage, while the dark-faced man had already broken through the ninth level of the Golden Core stage and was about to reach the Nascent Soul stage.
Two heavy hammers fell, and Zhang Fan raised his Thunder Cudgel to his chest to block. With a "whoosh," the weapons clashed.
The two men exuded an imposing aura, and shockwaves spread in all directions. Their weapons hummed, and many people of lower cultivation levels heard the piercing sounds, causing their heads to throb with pain. They had nowhere to avoid it and could only cover their ears and scream in agony.
Zhang Fan ignited his spiritual energy and gave a powerful jolt, sending the dark-faced man flying dozens of meters backward. He was only stopped when several other protectors caught him.
He clutched his chest and sneered, "Your cultivation level is lower than mine. Burn your lifespan to fight. You'll be worn down and killed. Brothers, let's attack together."
"good!"
The four men raised their weapons and flew towards Zhang Fan simultaneously.
Two men used swords, one used a red-tasseled spear, and the other used double hammers.
The four guardians attacked Zhang Fan with all their might, but Zhang Fan easily dodged their attacks. His iron hammer smashed into the ground, immediately creating a large crater with a diameter of one meter.
Chi Fei was horrified. If this happened to a person, they would be covered in bruises and welts.
However, the difference in their levels of understanding was too great, and she couldn't help them at all.
However, she can help deal with the lower-level henchmen.
Chi Fei shook her bracelet, and the bells jingled. From all directions, a large number of poisonous insects, centipedes, spiders, and the like, surged in like a dark flood, making one's scalp tingle.
On his way to Tianlongmen, Zhang Fan absorbed a lot of spiritual energy from plants to nourish Chi Fei's Gu worms. In just one night, he had already conceived two generations of Gu worms.
There were over 500,000 spiders alone. On the way here, Chi Fei gave the Gu worms a signal, instructing them to hide in the nearby mountains and forests. When the bell rang, the Gu worms received the signal and all came out at once.
If it were just one or two, these people would have killed the Gu worms directly. But now there are just too many of these Gu worms. They crawl onto people's bodies, burrow into their trouser legs, into their clothes, and even into their eyes, noses, mouths, and ears.
They could not escape any crack or crevice. These venomous insects were highly poisonous, and many of the henchmen fell, though they were still alive, only incapacitated.
"Sect Leader!" Someone reached out a hand to Zhen Xing.
Zhen Xing's eyes narrowed, and he formed his fingers into a claw shape. With a grab in the air, the heads of these people flew into Zhen Xing's palm as if they were magnetized.
The people under his palm quickly turned into skeletons. He would consume one, discard it casually, and immediately consume another.
Chi Fei's face turned deathly pale, her heart pounding with fear: "You're so cruel!"
Zhen Xing didn't care at all: "Anyway, they were poisoned and there was no cure. They died a worthy death, contributing to the ideals of Tianlongmen. I will remember them."
Chi Fei: "Shameless!"
Zhen Xing: "The law of the jungle is the rule. I should have kept you by my side in the first place."
"What do you mean?" Chi Fei was shocked. Could it be that she and Zhen Xing had some connection?
Zhen Xing ignored him and continued to absorb the spiritual energy from his subordinates.
Chi Fei manipulated the Gu worms to attack Zhen Xing, but the power released by Zhen Xing was too strong, and the Gu worms sensed the danger and dared not approach.
She increased the speed at which she shook the bell, and the sound of the bell became rapid.
Upon hearing the command, the Gu worms headed towards Zhen Xing.
But it was all in vain. These Gu worms bit Zhen Xing's body as if they were biting into an impenetrable wall, unable to harm him in the slightest.
Chi Fei was anxious. The more spiritual energy Zhen Xing absorbed, the stronger he became, and the more dangerous it would be for Zhang Fan.
She gripped the blazing whip and headed towards Zhen Xing.
However, this action was tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock. Zhen Xing gently struck out with his palm, and Chi Fei was like a leaf in the autumn wind, being carried around and drifting about.
She was sent flying backward and crashed heavily to the ground. She felt an itch in her chest, coughed, and actually spat out a mouthful of blood.
Zhen Xing's voice was fierce: "I'll let you off this time because of your relationship, but you won't be so lucky next time!"
Chi Fei was struck dumb. What exactly was her relationship with Zhen Xing?
