English Novel
Chapter 72
Chapter 72
The wild man in front of him referred to himself as Junior Brother and claimed to be Second Senior Brother.
This instantly made Lin Feng think of a name…Lin Mubai!
But he felt it was impossible. After all, Qingning had said that Lin Mubai was cultured and refined, abandoned his Innate Dao Bone, and sought to attain the imperial throne through the literary path—a fact affirmed by other cultivators.
But this wild man and madman before him seemed to have nothing to do with that description!
“Run! This madman is at the Earthly Origin stage! His cultivation is even higher than Jiang Chen’s!” Old Man Tianji shouted.
“Why didn’t you say that earlier?” Lin Feng couldn’t believe it.
“How was I supposed to know you’d be so unlucky? Should I tell you to run every time you meet someone stronger than you?”
“Didn’t you realize he’s a madman?!”
“There are so many madmen in the world. Should you run every time you encounter one? How was I to know you’d run into two madmen in a row, both wanting to kill you?”
Lin Feng was speechless.He felt Old Man Tianji made a lot of sense and had no retort.
Suddenly! Lin Mubai took just one step forward and instantly appeared in front of Lin Feng.
With his machete raised high and his expression even more ferocious, he brought down a heavy slash!
Seeing this, Lin Feng instinctively swung his sword to block.
“Clang——”
The two blades collided, emitting a high-pitched ringing as their vital energies clashed.
The vital energy of the Earthly Origin stage was far beyond that of the Initial Formation stage.
In just an instant, Lin Feng’s vital energy was shattered, and his black blade showed signs of breaking.
He sensed trouble!
After popping a pill to restore his vital energy, he immediately turned and ran.
He had only taken two steps when he felt a chill on his neck!
Lin Feng’s hair stood on end as he instinctively turned his head.
Lin Mubai, who should have been behind him, had eerily appeared at his side and swung his machetes at his neck.
At this life-and-death moment, Lin Feng stomped on the ground, his body moved like a dragon, and he shot out several zhang away!
“The Cloud-Capturing Dragon Movement Technique?” Lin Mubai narrowed his eyes as his attack missed.
“You have some insight.”
Lin Feng bluffed, “This is a high-grade movement technique! Although my cultivation is not as good as yours, with this technique, you can’t do anything to me!”
Lin Mubai didn’t respond. He just sheathed his machetes, and then several jade slips appeared in his hand, from which he selected one.
This left Lin Feng completely baffled. He couldn’t understand what it meant at all!
The behavior of a madman was incomprehensible, and he didn’t have the time to care. Seizing the opportunity, he once again activated his movement technique and fled into the distance.
In just a moment, he had escaped several li! Glancing back and continuously scanning his surroundings, Lin Feng laughed after seeing no sign of Lin Mubai.
“Haha, Jiang Chen bombarded me with cannons, and the range of that Thunder Spirit Cannon was too large, making my movement technique useless. But this technique is definitely a great tool for escaping a one-on-one fight!”
“That’s true,” Old Man Tianji agreed.
“A high-grade movement technique is even rarer than other high-grade secret manuals. I can see that wild man has a strong cultivation and decent swordsmanship, but he seems to have not learned any movement techniques, so he probably can’t catch up with you.”
“Be confident and remove the ‘probably’! He definitely can’t catch up with me!” Lin Feng grinned.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sense of melancholy.
He’s on the run again…
Ever since he arrived in the Central Domain, he had been mostly running away.
Lin Feng was fuming: “Just wait, I will get back at all of you…”
“Watch out!!” Suddenly Old Man Tianji yelled.
Hearing this, Lin Feng was startled and instinctively pushed his movement technique to the limit, darting several zhang away.
“Boom——!”
A muffled sound came from behind.
He quickly turned his head, and his expression was one of sheer disbelief.
The wild man had appeared again!
Not only had he appeared, but he had also slashed at the very spot where Lin Feng had been standing.
The simple-looking machete was now deeply embedded in the ground, and the vital energy gathered on it had cracked the ground around the blade.
And just as Lin Feng was stunned, a visible layer of blood energy appeared around Lin Mubai, making his already intimidating appearance even more ferocious.
“Swoosh——”
With a flash of blood, Lin Mubai appeared in front of Lin Feng, his machete swinging down directly at him.
Another moment of life and death!
A cold aura emerged on Lin Feng, and under this aura’s enhancement, his own energy surged.
He swung his black blade again to block.
“Clang——”
The blades clashed again, and the ringing sound returned. Unlike last time, the vital energy on the black blade became cold and was actually on par with Lin Mubai’s.
“We need to end this quickly. My soul power is about to run out!” Old Man Tianji’s voice emerged.
“Didn’t you say you were already out of it earlier?”
Lin Feng cursed, “You old scoundrel, you’re so bad! If you had told me earlier, you could have helped me, and I wouldn’t have to be chased by this wild man!”
“Everything has to be spared. It’s really gone this time,” Old Man Tianji sighed, his voice weakening a bit.
“You’re too reckless, that’s why I’m doing this for your own good. Besides, how will you grow if you always rely on my soul power?”
“Hmph!” Lin Feng snorted.
What does he mean by ‘always rely’?
He rarely did this in the Lower Domain.
Who could have imagined that the difficulty level in the Central Domain was completely different from the Lower Domain?
He had just arrived and was already targeted by several people beyond his abilities.
Not wanting to argue with Old Man Tianji, Lin Feng quickly estimated the situation.
At this moment, his combat power should be able to touch the Earthly Origin stage if he relyon soul power.
In other words, he was on par with the wild man before him!
He instantly calmed down.
Maintaining his blocking stance, he wondered, “If you have a high-grade movement technique, why were you left behind by me just now?”
“…”
Lin Mubai ignored him.
Lin Feng scoffed with disdain.
Not talking?
Without any hesitation, he kicked the area between Lin Mubai’s legs with a crippling blow.
This kick was full of soul power and extremely powerful.
In the Lower Domain, many had been crippled by his kick!
But after a direct hit, Lin Feng saw that Lin Mubai did not react!
Unmovable and unfazed as a mountain.
Moreover, it felt like kicking iron, and it was even a bit painful!
“…you don’t have them?” Lin Feng looked up, completely baffled.
Lin Mubai glared angrily and asserted, “F*ck, I have!”
“Then why no reaction? And why is it so hard?”
“Hmph, I knew you liked to play dirty, so I trained for it!”
Trained for it?
Who would be so free as to specifically train that area? And judging by the hardness, it seemed he had trained quite intensely!
“Damn it! He really is a madman!” Regaining his senses, he cursed.
As he spoke, he stomped on the ground and leaped several steps away, once again creating distance between himself and Lin Mubai.
Seeing Lin Mubai pursue, he swung his sword several times, slashing out several cold black Saber Qi. The Saber Qi tore through the air, splitting wood and earth.
Lin Mubai frowned and the blood energy wrapped around him again. He continues to dodge like a ghost.
“Heh! You’re only at the Way of the Saber Beginner level, but I’m at the Way of the Saber Minor Achievement! I can wear you down just with my Saber Qi!” Lin Feng laughed as he realized this.
Lin Mubai still ignored him.
This made Lin Feng frown.
Usually, his opponents were very talkative, but since coming to the Central Domain, it seemed like he was the one who became more talkative.
Annoyed, he slashed out several more Saber Qi and then began to enjoy watching Lin Mubai’s desperate escape.
Suddenly, Lin Mubai stopped moving.
He just stood there while staring blankly, lost in some profound and mysterious understanding of the Dao!
At the same time, his bare chest suddenly burst into a radiant white light!
“This is a sudden epiphany!”
Old Man Tianji was shocked, “He… he has an Innate Dao Bone! And it’s the rib in front of his heart!”
