Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 140 - 138: Enemies on a Narrow Road

Chapter 140: Chapter 138: Enemies on a Narrow Road

Qin Feng had just entered the Space Channel when he felt the world spinning violently, various lights and shadows morphing before his eyes before they finally stopped.

His body lost balance, and with a thud, he fell into a clump of grass, startling a small bird nearby that was catching insects, causing it to flutter away with rapid beats of its tiny wings.

He shook his somewhat dizzy head, calming his spirit, and regained his senses.

He got up and looked around. He was in the middle of a forest, unable to see the distant scenery.

Looking up at the sky, he could clearly sense that the Space Channel was hundreds of miles above this place in the sky.

His Divine Sense and eyes couldn’t see that far, of course, but the Space Channel was very special. If one regarded the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm as a world, the Space Channels opened up by the Dharma Image Cultivator factions were like poking holes in the sky of this world. Even if far apart, one could still feel the breath that did not belong to this world.

...

Qin Feng did not linger. These disciples only needed to be transmitted back through the Space Channel on the last day. For now, it was more important to ascertain his own position and find Sister Xiaoxi.

He began walking out of the forest. However, before he had taken a few steps, a gigantic bloody mouth suddenly protruded from a nearby large tree, its sharp fangs aiming for his head.

Whoosh…

A streak of Golden Light flashed, and the figure of Ruyi Golden Snake zoomed past behind that huge mouth, chopping off the head of the Demon Beast python that was as thick as a bowl, spilling blood. Before the blood could reach him, Qin Feng moved away like a breeze.

He paid no heed to the python’s sneak attack.

As a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, his Divine Sense was sharp. In this unfamiliar place, how could he possibly not be cautiously on guard? A mere Demon Beast python at the Qi Refining Early Stage thinking of sneaking up on him was wishful thinking.

Putting away the Ruyi Golden Snake, Qin Feng hastened his steps and soon left the small forest.

Surveying the surroundings, he saw a plain with no peculiar mountains, rivers, or landmarks, making it impossible to determine his current location.

Shaking his head slightly, yet undiscouraged, he took out the Jade Talisman given by Qin Xi. Sensing the three strands of aura on it, he found they were all quite far from him, the nearest one several hundred miles away.

He did not know if the closest was Qin Xi since the Creation Peak Master didn’t specifically craft the Jade Talisman to distinguish the auras. There were only three people from the Creation Peak who entered, so there wasn’t a need for such clear distinction.

Qin Feng didn’t think too much about it and decided to meet up first. After all, they were all fellow sect members.

Several hundred miles was neither too far nor too near. It would take a long time if he relied on walking on foot, but with a flying mount, he could save a lot of time.

Summoning the Spiritual Vulture, Qin Feng mounted it and flew towards the location indicated by the sensed aura on the Jade Talisman.

Except for some special areas, flying was not prohibited in the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm, only that one couldn’t fly too high. After all, this was still a Grotto Heaven crafted by another sect. Their aura from different cultivation techniques could easily attract suppression from the laws within the grotto if they flew too high.

The Spiritual Vulture flew about twenty to thirty feet above the ground, flapping its wings swiftly.

However, this height was not safe and made it easy to be attacked by Demon Beasts below. In just over a hundred miles of flight, Qin Feng had already encountered three sneak attacks.

Yet, anxious to find Qin Xi, he did not stop to deal with these Demon Beasts. After blocking their attacks, he simply flew away.

There was no need to bother with those Demon Beasts; it was a waste of time.

Just as Qin Feng maneuvered the Spiritual Vulture around the middle of a mountain, planning to continue forward, suddenly a few people flew over from behind the mountain.

It was just the beginning of the exploration in the Secret Realm, and disciples from various sects had just started treasure hunting. There were rare fights at this time because there wasn’t much benefit involved.

As Qin Feng was about to pass by these people, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

Because he recognized someone.

Zhuo Feifan!!

Damn, how did this guy get here?

When he was on the Tower Ship, he had specifically looked over at the Sword Boat of Taiyi Mountain several times and did not spot this guy. Where did he pop up from?

Qin Feng cursed inwardly and patted the back of the Spiritual Vulture. The Spiritual Vulture vibrated its wings, tracing a beautiful arc in midair as it flew away into the distance.

Behind him, Zhuo Feifan’s expression also froze. He hadn’t expected this guy to still be alive?

After fleeing the Void Shattering Hammer Cave Mansion with the Sword Talisman bestowed by his master, worried that Qin Feng had survived, he had specifically returned, only to find the entrance of the cave mansion sealed by an array, inaccessible.

Later, worried, he hid in the shadows and watched for a month. Seeing no change in the Void Shattering Ancient Mansion, he then left and went in search of traces of the Ancient Spirit Sword.

Unfortunately, his luck was poor. Before he could find the Ancient Spirit Sword, he was severely injured in the Ancient Battlefield and had no choice but to retreat.

Zhuo Feifan, returning to Taiyi Mountain, delivered his carefully fabricated lies. Although Elder Jiang Dongliu of the Punishment Sword Hall was furious over his daughter’s death, Zhuo Feifan was protected by his master and other elders because he brought back news of the Heavenly Connecting Lotus.

He also shifted the blame for the sister’s death onto a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, avoiding punishment. Instead, thanks to the news about the Heavenly Connecting Lotus, he received a reward from his master.

Originally, he thought that the lad had perished in that cave mansion, his secrets forever unknown, so he brazenly told Jiang Dongliu that he had avenged his daughter.

But now, what a turn of events, a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, who was believed to have died on the Ancient Battlefield, was blatantly flying right past him, startling Zhuo Feifan greatly.

However, his reaction was swift; despite his shock, seeing Qin Feng about to escape riding the Spiritual Bird, he didn’t hesitate and struck at Qin Feng with his sword.

Qin Feng did not use the Ruyi Golden Snake to defend himself; he wanted to keep it as a trump card, planning to catch them off guard and perhaps even launch a sneak attack later.

So he took out a second-level Defense Spiritual Talisman and activated it immediately, defending against the opponent’s Flying Sword.

Zhuo Feifan felt a sense of panic, fearing that Qin Feng would reveal what he had initially done. It wouldn’t be good if the two fellow sect members by his side heard it and brought the news back, so his Flying Sword moved incredibly fast, delivering one swift strike after another, attempting to kill Qin Feng before he could speak.

The two Sword Cultivators following him didn’t care about Zhuo Feifan attacking a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect directly; firstly, the two sects were archenemies, and furthermore, Zhuo Feifan had proclaimed on several occasions that since a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect had killed his junior sister, he would be irreconcilable with the Beast Taming Sect.

Seeing that Qin Feng’s cultivation wasn’t high, clearly not having reached the Foundation Establishment stage, they initially didn’t take him seriously. But seeing several of Zhuo Feifan’s attacks getting blocked, they too began to launch their Flying Swords at Qin Feng.

With their extensive combat experience and frequent clashes with the Beast Taming Sect disciples, they also were familiar with some tricks and weaknesses of the Beast Taming Sect, so one of their Flying Swords did not attack Qin Feng but aimed at the Spiritual Vulture instead.

If they killed the flying mount, could a mere Qi Refining Realm disciple possibly escape by flying?

Seeing this, Qin Feng couldn’t help but curse silently.

Up against three Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivators, he was certainly no match, especially since they attacked his Spiritual Vulture at such a tricky angle.

With a swoosh, a Flying Sword passed through the Spiritual Vulture’s wing, leaving a bloody hole.

The Spiritual Vulture screeched in pain; the wing injured by the Flying Sword immediately surged with Sword Qi, causing unbearable pain and making it unable to maintain flight. They spiraled down towards the ground.

With a rustling sound, the man and bird broke many branches, falling into the forest below.

Zhuo Feifan and the others relentlessly pursued with their Flying Swords, slashing towards the area where they had fallen.

However, just moments later, the three instinctively stopped and retracted their Flying Swords, frowning in observation.

Despite scouring the area several hundred feet around numerous times with their Divine Sense, they found no trace of him.

Not to mention a person, they didn’t even see a single feather of the Spiritual Vulture.

“It seems that kid must have some treasure on him, otherwise he couldn’t have hidden so thoroughly,” one Sword Cultivator guessed.

“Let’s go down and check!” Zhuo Feifan said coldly.

“Alright.”

The other two were also Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivators; together, they weren’t afraid of a Qi Refining Realm disciple from the Beast Taming Sect.

But even though the opponent’s strength was inferior to theirs, they didn’t grow careless; before descending, they slashed out with their Flying Swords, turning the sword Qi into a net, clearing out a space in the forest below to confirm that Qin Feng was not in the area of their sword Qi before landing where Qin Feng had fallen.

Looking around in surprise, one of them speculated, “Could that kid have some sort of teleportation Spiritual Talisman, and he’s already transported elsewhere?”

“That’s possible.”

Another one said, “Looking at his mere Qi Refining Realm cultivation level, since he managed to enter the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm, he clearly had to have been favored by an elder from the Beast Taming Sect; otherwise, ordinary Qi Refining Realm disciples wouldn’t have the chance to come here.

In that case, having some life-saving methods is normal. Junior Brother Zhuo, Junior Brother Zhao, since we can’t find him, we might as well—Oh!”

He couldn’t finish his words when he suddenly sensed a chillingly sharp aura coming from behind him.

His heart screamed danger, and he wanted to dodge, but the attack was too sudden and too close to evade. He only felt a chill on his neck, then was immediately plunged into darkness.

“How dare you!”

“Senior Brother Li…”

Zhuo Feifan and the other person were shocked. They hadn’t expected Qin Feng to appear so silently close behind them and to launch a sneak attack.

As they watched the decapitated head of the attacked Senior Brother soar into the air, both of them, filled with shock, hastily commanded their Flying Swords towards Qin Feng.

With a clang, their Flying Swords were blocked by two Golden Wings, and then Qin Feng, covered in a yellow light, vanished from the spot instantly.

Previously, when he and the Spiritual Vulture had fallen, he’d directly stowed the bird in the Demon Refining Pot, while he himself had used the Earth Escape Divine Power at the moment of touching the ground to burrow underground, thus avoiding their search.

Then, taking advantage of their unpreparedness, he quietly emerged and successfully ambushed one of them.
