With the Heavenly Ladder Tournament approaching, all classes at the academy have been suspended, and the disciples are given the opportunity to train over the next few days.
Little Phoenix looked at the empty academy, perched on a treetop, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
At this moment, two disciples walked by, and Xiao Huang'er realized that all the disciples in the academy had gone to train.
Ji Jiuying's eyelashes trembled slightly a few times, and she slowly opened her eyes. After checking herself over, she nodded in satisfaction.
Squeak!
The door was opened, and Xuanwu was the first to rush towards Ji Jiuying.
“Master, Little Phoenix said she wants to go out for a stroll, and I’m worried she might be in danger,” Xuanwu said.
Dongfang Yao and Ling Xiao then realized that Xiao Huang'er was no longer there. Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying used her soul power to sense the situation and shook her head helplessly.
"Don't worry, she's in the Immortal Peak Mountains of the academy now." Xuanwu breathed a sigh of relief.
Through Xiao Huang'er's soul transmission, Ji Jiuying learned that almost everyone in the academy had gone on training.
“Mother, there are many high-level spirit beasts here, which is indeed a good place for training.”
"good."
After descending from Xianlin Peak, Ji Jiuying inquired along the way and headed towards the Xianfeng Mountain Range.
Little Phoenix was watching from the treetop as Feng Yu fought alone against an eighth-level Wind Blade Leopard.
My mother's cousin is quite strong, but seeing that he has been fighting the level 8 peak Wind Blade Leopard for so long and still hasn't found its weakness, I'm afraid he will run out of energy if this continues.
This level 8 peak Windblade Leopard is extremely fast and very cunning. It is good at wearing down the enemy's stamina and will take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack once it finds that the enemy is exhausted.
As expected, Feng Yu experienced a depletion of spiritual energy, and his face was covered in fine sweat, but he still maintained a calm expression.
Xiao Huang'er shook her head. At this moment, a resolute look flashed in Feng Yu's eyes. He gritted his teeth, gripped the sword in his hand tightly, and continuously channeled spiritual energy into the sword. A light blue light enveloped his entire body.
The surrounding trees began to shake violently, and the air became turbulent.
The Windblade Leopard charged with immense power. Feng Yu leaped forward, his sword flashing rapidly. Several streaks of blue light transformed into sharp, cold glints, cleaving the surrounding trees into pieces.
The Windblade Leopard stopped in its tracks, its eyes filled with disbelief and terror.
Tick-tock, tick-tock!
Drops of blood dripped from the Windblade Leopard's head, and instantly, the Windblade Leopard's body was split in two, falling to either side.
Even as he fell, his eyes still held fear, which shows just how terrifying the power of that blade was.
With a loud clang!
The sword in Feng Yu's hand fell to the ground, and with a spurt of blood, he collapsed to his knees, exhausted. After resting for a while, he dragged his weary body against a large tree and sat cross-legged to slowly recover.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Huang'er's eyes. She had been too reckless. By expending her own spiritual power to kill the spirit beast, she had depleted her physical strength and would suffer a backlash.
At this moment, Xiao Huang'er narrowed her jewel-like eyes and looked in another direction.
Someone's coming!
Before long, several men appeared in front of Feng Yu, one of whom was Qi Feng, who had fought with him in the secret realm before.
"Big brother, it's Feng Yu!"
"It looks like he was badly injured in the fight with the Windblade Leopard."
One of the men looked at the spirit beast's corpse not far away and said.
"Big brother, you'll definitely face each other again in the ranked matches. With his current growth rate, it's hard to guarantee he won't catch up with you. Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity..."
The man narrowed his sinister eyes and lightly stroked his neck with his hand.
Qi Feng glanced at the man speaking beside him and said coldly, "Although our Hell Gate is not afraid of Four Directions City, he is the young master of Four Directions City. Killing him will definitely bring unnecessary trouble to my father and the others..."
The man beside Qi Feng instantly understood the meaning behind Qi Feng's words and took out a jet-black pill from his bag.
"Brother, this is a Fallen Pill. After consuming this pill, the rate at which spiritual energy is consumed will double, and one's cultivation will be permanently stagnant, with no cure."
Upon hearing this, Qi Feng's lips curled into a sinister smile: "Liu Dao, why didn't you bring out such a treasure sooner?"
“Brother, this is not my fault. I received this pill at the market yesterday. It was the only one available. Now it can help you with your worries.”
Liu Dao said in a sinister tone, and Qi Feng smiled. With just a glance, Liu Dao understood what he meant.
Liu Dao swaggered forward with the pills in his hand. Feng Yu, who was recovering on his own, noticed something and frowned.
Zhu Feijin, standing behind Qi Feng, stepped forward and said, "Big brother, look, it seems that the beast core of that level eight spirit beast is still there. What do you think, should we...?"
"Old Zhu, do you have to ask about such a small thing?"
Zhu Feijin was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood what he meant. "Brother, it was Old Zhu who was foolish." As he spoke, a dagger appeared in his right hand.
Meanwhile, the little phoenix on the tree was still leisurely counting the leaves: "Save, don't save, save, don't save, save..."
Zhu Feijin cleanly and efficiently dug out the Wind Blade Leopard's core, washed it with spiritual energy, and turned to Qi Feng's side with the core in hand. Qi Feng's lips curled up slightly, and he was about to reach out and pick up the core when a red light flashed before his eyes, and the core in his hand disappeared instantly.
The group stood there stunned, watching as a crimson bird snatched the beast core and flew towards Feng Yu.
Qi Feng was immediately alarmed, "Liu Dao, be careful the pills might be stolen!"
Liu Dao turned around in confusion, but a gust of wind swept by and the pill in his hand vanished instantly.
Immediately, Qi Feng's face contorted with rage: "Idiot!"
Liu Dao then realized that a bird had snatched the pill from his hand!
"A bunch of idiots! What are you looking at? Hurry up and kill that bird, and bring back the pills and beast core!"
The pills and beast cores disappeared into Xiao Huang'er's hands. Qi Feng's face darkened, and he roared. He never expected that an unknown bird would ruin his plans.
Several henchmen immediately drew their swords and launched a fierce attack on Xiao Huang'er, but they couldn't even touch her body.
Qi Feng's face was so black it could drip ink, and his sinister eyes fell on Feng Yu. He originally just wanted to stop your cultivation here, but if you have to blame someone, blame this meddlesome bird!
A gun gleaming with a cold light appeared in his hand, and he walked step by step toward Feng Yu. Feng Yu's brows furrowed even more, and his hand trembled, cold sweat pouring down his face, as if he were enduring unbearable pain.
Qi Feng aimed his spear at Feng Yu's dantian and thrust it down fiercely. Xiao Huang'er, who was in mid-air, noticed this and her expression turned cold. This ugly monster actually wanted to take advantage of her. She transformed into a red streak of light and leaped down.
A sinister glint flashed in Qi Feng's eyes. He slashed behind him, and Xiao Huang'er was terrified. She quickly dodged, but cursed under her breath!
