Chapter 417: Scheme within a Scheme
After returning from outside,
Lin Feng sat quietly in his room, seriously watching the Journey to the West on television.
He realized that ever since he began cultivating, he had developed a particular fondness for shows like Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods.
As a child, he didn’t understand; watching such dramas was merely for the excitement.
But now, it was different!
He found the plots to be quite meaningful,
for example, Sun Wukong and Yang Jian refining their bodies, achieving sainthood, and becoming immortal.
And then there was Sun Wukong’s seventy-two transformations, his fiery eyes, and his ability to travel vast distances in a single leap!
All of these could theoretically be realized in the path of cultivation!
“Could the author of Journey to the West have been a powerful figure in the cultivation world?”
“Is the so-called sainthood of the physical body similar to my current situation? I am now at the eighth stage of body refinement in the Nascent Soul realm, with an unparalleled physique!”
Lin Feng’s gaze gradually deepened.
Unknowingly,
a faint layer of radiance began to emanate from his body…
If a powerful figure from the cultivation world were present at that moment, they would notice that Lin Feng had already entered a state of enlightenment, a rare occurrence that is hard to come by…
Around seven o’clock in the evening,
Lin Feng awoke from his enlightenment,
feeling as if his mindset had suddenly become much more open.
Previously, he had been eager to uncover the truth behind the disappearance of his parents and sister, seeking the secrets hidden in the immortal tomb, always wanting to break through to the Out-of-Body realm quickly.
But now,
he felt less urgency; sometimes, the more anxious one is, the more easily they become restless!
Moreover,
the path must be walked step by step.
He was currently at a critical moment in refining his body and needed to proceed steadily!
Otherwise, if any flaws appeared, it would be unknown how much effort it would take to make up for them later!
“What is this realm of sainthood of the physical body, immortality, and invincibility?”
Lin Feng murmured to himself.
At that moment,
there was a knock on the door from outside; it was Quan Renxian and her daughter Jin Xiaoya!
“Lord Lin, it’s about time! Let’s set off now.”
Quan Renxian said respectfully.
“Okay!”
Lin Feng nodded.
At this moment, darkness had already enveloped the entire Central Asia region.
Under the moonlight,
the three of them quickly rushed toward the agreed location,
but halfway through the journey,
Lin Feng suddenly narrowed his eyes and coldly looked toward a corner, saying:
“Who?”
“Hehe, as expected of a powerful figure who has made many forces in Yading City unable to raise their heads! I concealed my aura completely and hid in the shadows, yet you still discovered me!”
A middle-aged man stepped out from the darkness.
The middle-aged man was dressed in black, with sharp features, a tall and strong physique, giving off an intimidating presence.
“Who are you?”
Lin Feng squinted his eyes.
The aura of this middle-aged man fluctuated unpredictably, sometimes resembling a peak Martial God, and at other times, even above that.
The reason for this situation
should be that this person was at a critical period of breaking through to a level above Martial God, or one could say he was half a step into the Void realm!
“Lord Lin, he is an old senior from my half-island country and a friend of my husband, named Jin Ying! For the sake of safety in this operation, I specifically asked him to come and help!”
Quan Renxian explained from the side.
“Lin Xiaoyou, the Dark Blood God Clan has unfathomable depth, but there shouldn’t be too many powerful figures coming tonight!”
“Let’s see how the two of us handle it then!”
Jin Ying smiled, appearing very amiable.
Lin Feng nodded but said nothing!
His target was only the Dark Blood God Clan; everything else was irrelevant!
……
Soon,
the group of Westerners arrived at a hillside on the outskirts.
At this moment,
the Dark Blood God Clan’s powerful figure, An Wuxie, also appeared on the scene with Jin Ming.
Upon seeing Jin Ming, Quan Renxian’s expression became excited.
However, she did not greet him but instead focused her gaze on An Wuxie, loudly saying.
“I’ve brought the person; hurry up and lift the blood curse on my husband!”
“Is that so? Are you sure Lin Feng has taken the forbidden drug?”
An Wuxie’s crimson eyes coldly fixed on the expressionless Lin Feng.
“Absolutely!”
Quan Renxian immediately replied.
At this moment, Jin Ming also spoke up:
“You promised me before that as long as I helped you deal with Lin Feng, you would grant me freedom; now you can fulfill your promise!”
“Hehe…”
An Wuxie let out a sinister laugh,
and as his laughter faded,
“Swish, swish, swish~”
dozens of dark figures suddenly appeared out of thin air.
These figures were all enveloped in a strange dark power, with eyes glowing red, looking extremely eerie!
Seeing this scene,
Lin Feng’s expression remained unchanged.
However, Quan Renxian and the others’ pupils constricted.
Even Jin Ying, a half-step into the Void realm, showed a slight change in expression, sensing that something was off.
“Master, what do you mean by this?”
Jin Ming immediately asked.
To his surprise, An Wuxie turned around and slapped Jin Ming across the face, coldly saying:
“Dog thing! Do you really think I’m a fool?”
“Lin Feng didn’t drink the forbidden drug I gave him at all; he is currently in peak condition and hasn’t lost any spiritual power! You all conspired together to deceive me; it’s simply ignorant and fearless!”
“Master, you must be misunderstanding!”
Jin Ming hurriedly explained with a smile!
“Misunderstanding? You have a blood curse planted by me; every word and action of yours is under my surveillance! Do you understand?”
An Wuxie sneered.
Upon hearing this, the smile on Jin Ming’s face instantly froze, followed by a look of terror.
According to the original plan,
An Wuxie had given him the forbidden drug of the God Clan, allowing him to use Quan Renxian and her daughter to trick Lin Feng into drinking it, causing Lin Feng to lose his physical spiritual power, thus allowing them to eliminate Lin Feng effortlessly!
So they decided to play along,
with Lin Feng pretending to drink the forbidden drug to lure An Wuxie over alone, and then everyone would join forces to capture An Wuxie and force him to lift the blood curse!
Unexpectedly,
everything had been known to An Wuxie in advance!
Moreover, An Wuxie had also turned the tables, bringing a group of God Clan experts to ambush them here…
This was entirely a conspiracy clash between two cunning individuals.
It was a competition of who was more cunning!
Thinking of this,
Quan Renxian and the others felt a chill run down their spines.
They had thought they were the hunters,
but little did they know that the real hunter was An Wuxie…
“Go! Capture Lin Feng alive, and eliminate everyone else!”
At this moment, An Wuxie’s voice filled with murderous intent rang in everyone’s ears!
In the next moment,
“Swish, swish, swish!”
The figures of over a dozen Dark Blood God Clan experts vanished into the darkness.
These Dark Blood God Clan experts were roughly at the Martial God level, but in the night, their combat power could nearly double, blending into the night, making them hard to defend against!
“Lin Xiaoyou, protect them well!!! I’ll take care of them!”
Jin Ying shouted coldly, and he suddenly had a black feather fan in his hand without knowing when.
The fan had faint patterns appearing on it, containing unfathomable power!
He fiercely waved the feather fan in his hand, coldly saying:
“Let you all experience the power of my Peng Feather Fan!”
