However, something unexpected happened. Just as the pressure was about to reach the young man, suddenly, a pair of ruthless and cold hands struck the black-clad man's head like lightning! At the same time, a furious shout resounded through the sky: "How dare you attack my boss? You're courting death!"
The man in black suddenly felt an overwhelming aura of death bearing down on him, his hair standing on end, terrified. He didn't dare delay a moment, hastily sheathing his magic umbrella and employing teleportation to swiftly retreat. However, despite his quick reaction, he still couldn't completely avoid the fierce attack.
With a resounding "bang," the massive hands slammed fiercely into the chest of the man in black. Instantly, an immensely powerful force erupted, like a nuclear bomb. The man in black was powerless to withstand the terrifying impact, and was blasted away like a kite with its string cut.
After flying backwards dozens of feet, the man in black finally managed to steady himself. But by this point, his heart was already filled with terror and fear, for he clearly sensed that the person who had just attacked him had reached the state of great perfection! Even as he pondered this, a barrage of attacks continued to hammer him, without any weapons or spells involved. Simply physical assaults!
Time ticked by, and after more than ten minutes, the black shadow, like a rag, was thrown heavily in front of Jiang Feng by Lu Lingfeng. The man in black's cultivation had been completely sealed. His body was covered in wounds, with hardly a single piece of intact skin. His appearance was so miserable that it was unbearable to look at! Even the two elf masters watching the fight were terrified by the scene, not daring to utter a word.
After a brief pause, Jiang Feng put on a faint smile and slowly asked, "Tell me, which sect of the demon clan are you from?" However, in response to Jiang Feng's question, the man in black just glared at him fiercely, with a raging fire of hatred burning in his eyes. Then he turned his head away stubbornly without saying a word.
Seeing this, Lu Lingfeng frowned and stepped forward without a word. A flash of cold light flashed in his hand, and the sharp long sword instantly unsheathed. With a single blow, the black-clad man's arm was severed. A stream of blood spurted out, and the severed arm flew high into the air before landing heavily on the ground. Instantly, excruciating pain washed over him, and the black-clad man let out a heartbreaking scream, writhing and struggling on the ground. He possessed a powerful cultivation base of the late Great Perfection stage, usually so imposing and commanding. When had he ever suffered such a profound humiliation?
Seeing this, Jiang Feng said coldly again, "Be smart and tell us everything you know. Otherwise, with this friend's fiery temper, he won't show you the slightest bit of mercy!" Hearing this, the man in black gritted his teeth, enduring the severe pain, and squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Who are you? How dare you interfere in the affairs of our Tianmo Sect? I advise you to let me go immediately, otherwise, if you anger our ancestors, you will be waiting for a catastrophic disaster!"
Jiang Feng raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a wild and unrestrained smile, and laughed loudly: "The Blood Demon? Haha, even if he comes in person, what can he do to me? Since you are so stubborn, then go to the underworld to report!" Before he finished speaking, he was seen flashing, striding towards the two elves like a gust of wind, without even turning his head.
At the same time, Lü Lingfeng, standing nearby, focused his gaze and swung out with his right fist, carrying a sharp gust of wind, instantly striking the man in black's chest. With a dull thud, the man in black flew backward like a kite with its string cut, landing heavily on the ground, motionless.
Seeing this, the elven elders' faces were filled with gratitude. They hurried forward, bowed deeply to Jiang Feng and Lu Lingfeng, and said, "Thank you both for your help. We, the elven tribe, will never forget your kindness. If you don't mind, please stay with us for a few days. This will allow us to show our hospitality."
However, Jiang Feng gently waved his hand and said with a smile, "Elder, you are too polite. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. This is what chivalrous people like me should do. But right now, I feel that there seems to be some rare treasure in that cave about to be unearthed. I wonder if the elder knows what it is?"
Hearing Jiang Feng's words, the elven elder was slightly startled, a flicker of panic flashing across his face, and he subconsciously took two steps back. Then, his expression became extremely serious, and he said solemnly, "Young man, you don't know, the thing in that cave is not an ordinary thing, but a sacred herb. This sacred herb has been guarded by my elven tribe for generations, waiting for the right person to appear. So, even though you saved our lives, I cannot give you this sacred herb."
As everyone was chatting, suddenly, layers of brilliant purple light began to shimmer across the previously clear sky. These violet lights spread like ripples, their color growing increasingly intense, as if dyeing the entire sky a sea of purple. Upon seeing this bizarre sight, the elven elder's face suddenly changed, and he cried out in shock, "Oh no! This is the icy divine light erupting! It's over! We're all going to die here..."
Jiang Feng suddenly raised his head, his gaze fixed on the mysterious purple light in the sky. He saw that the purple light was like a ferocious dragon, swooping down on them with its fangs and claws bared. Wherever it passed, even the air seemed unable to withstand its powerful force and was frozen abruptly.
Jiang Feng's heart trembled, and an unprecedented fear surged within him. Furthermore, he keenly sensed that the purple light seemed to possess a consciousness and life of its own, greedily devouring everything around it. Whether it was flowers, trees, or birds and beasts, as soon as they were touched by the purple light, they would instantly vanish into nothingness.
Seeing the purple light approaching, Jiang Feng didn't dare hesitate any longer. He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Quick! Everyone, follow me into the cave!" Before he even finished speaking, he had already taken the lead, rushing towards the nearby cave like a gust of wind. Seeing this, the others followed closely behind, rushing into the cave at top speed.
However, just as the purple light was about to catch up and devour them, a layer of gray, lifeless spiritual energy suddenly erupted from the depths of the cave, like a huge protective net, quickly and tightly enveloping Jiang Feng and the other four. Strangely enough, the once powerful and indestructible purple light, upon contact with this layer of gray, dead spiritual energy, seemed to have encountered its nemesis, unable to advance even a bit.
